What is too much?I take 10/325 3 time a day ## You should always follow your doctor's dosing instructions. The FDA warns that per dose in any 8 hour period, you should not exceed 1,000mgs of Acetaminophen and no more than 3,000mgs of it in a 24 hour period. Taking too much of it could result in liver damage, liver failure and overdose toxicity, which may be fatal. This medication also carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

Is R333 Percocet 7.5/325? My last prescription for Percocet 7.5/325 said R332 and was flatter than the R333. ## Hi E J, There actually aren't any pills marked "R333" that fit your description. I think you may have meant to say "A 333" which is a white oblong pill containing 10mgs of oxycodone + 325mgs of acetaminophen (generic for Percocet). "A 332" fits the same physical description as the previous pill, aside from being slightly flatter due to having a smaller dosage of oxycodone (7.5 mg) instead of the 10mg in A333. I hope this helps explain things! ## I had a heck of a time figuring this out. R333 is the generic for A333. The ones I am getting are still made by Actavis. Check with your pharmacist, because it was unclear if the R333 designation is a univer...

Wasted $140 because I refuse to use something that does more damage than good ## I take perocet 10/apap and wentto get mine filled and they gave me a different one to it has ip something on it and it does nothing for my pain why do we have to accept meds that do not work please help me to tell what to tell the pharmacy? ## I am very sorry that you've both had a problem, unfortunately, there is nothing your pharmacy can do. However, I would suggest that you both report the issue to the FDA by calling them at 888-463-6332. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit for...

I'm trying to figure out if these meds are the same. If not what's the difference? ## Hello, Lucy! How are you? They are the same, just manufactured by difference companies. The one with the V marking is manufactured by Qualitest Pharmaceuticals and the one with the logo 230 is manufactured by Actavis. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Doctor at pain clinic only did urine drug test once when I first went there in 2004 then suddenly urine tested me at dr. visit in July. The test came back negative for anything (when I was taking all meds prescribed). The next week I was tested again, this time test came back with all mixed up amounts and that I had amphetamines! Doctor came in and rudely announced; "you come into my clinic high on amphetamines!" I honestly didn't know what that was, so I asked what is that? He then hatefully and loudly said "crystalmeth!" I was totally shattered and deeply humiliated!! He had (3) nurses in the room and when I tried to speak and tell him it was wrong, he told me not to yell at him but he was raising his voice at me. I asked for an immediate blood test or another test...

Ive been withdrawing from roxy for past 2 days. I have a very busy day today. If I take one perc 15 will I be starting my withdrawal process all over?y ## It really depends on how much oxycodone you take and how long you have taken it, and it also depends on your state mentally. It has been a few days since your post... How did it work out? ## Thanks for the reply. I had no problems. Was a bit "off" but wasn't sick. ## Same meds so id say yea..try jus a half tab..work off slowly.

I have herniated discs in my neck and back, with pain down my left leg. I need pain medication. l had fusion surgery on my lumbar years ago. I'm in central NJ, mercer county and these pain mgmt facilities only wanna do inj's. cause it's where the money is. I'm so tired of having real pain and i go to my primary and literally had to beg to even get 5mg percocet and 1mg xanax. Can anyone in the mercer county or burlington county area recommend where i can go for relief?

I have a toothache and was wondering if I could take two extra strength Tylenol and also take a percocet 5/325? ## Hello, Gayle! How are you? No, that would not be safe due to the excessive amount of Acetaminophen that you'd be ingesting. Each dose of it needs to stay at no more than 1,000mgs per dose and 3,000mgs for a 24 hour period, or you may risk liver failure or damage and/or a fatal overdose. The FDA classifies Percocet as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## You could take 1 extra strength tylenol. BUT Do Not Take another Percocet or Tylenol for at least 6 hours. You can take 650 mg tylenol every 4 hours or 1,0...

Could there be a percocet 10-325 m tab or a oxycod/aAPAP 10-325M TAb made by AMNE... ## Hello, Nancy! How are you? Yes, but the dosage you've listed is not correct! This tablet used to be manufactured by IntraPharm, which was then purchased by Amneal Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 7.5mgs of Oxycodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

On the white round Percocet it has 10325 on it and on the backside RP. The RP is sideways on the back. Is this real or fake??? ## Hello, Lori! How are you? If you received it from a licensed U.S. pharmacy, then there is no reason to worry. The way a pill is printed can vary, depending on how it fell into the pill press. However, if it was obtained via some other source, then it could be fake.

Is there a perocet 10 mg that is yellow with just a marking of a v on it. No other markings ## Hello, Mark! How are you? No, but there is a 200mg caffeine tablet that matches this description that's available over the counter. Depending on the style of the V, it could be a name brand Vivarin tablet, or one of the many generic or store brands of it. Learn more Caffeine details here. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Lortab 10 comes in an oval yellow pill with a V one side and 36|01 on the other side. ## Hello how do you know what pill is a better pill, I was taking oxycodone a 333 then the pharmacist gave me Oxy U17. Now they have given me a yellow round pill with 230 on one side I don't like all these changes and would like to just know which is the better product.

Has the Fentynol patches changed? I'm on 100mg and I use to see a gel substance in the patch. Now with 2 different brands, neither have the gel, and both have NOT worked as well controlling my pain. Any info? ## Hello, Sammy! How are you? Not all of them use the gel formulation and whichever one your pharmacy carries may vary from month to month, depending on which manufacturer was offering the cheapest price at the time they needed to restock their supply. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. You may want to speak to your doctor about the issue to see if they may be able to suggest something that will help, since these one...

I am a painter by trade and I work for myself I have list jobs because I am simply in to much pain to do them. I have taken percoset in the past and they work great for my pain.

My nephew accidentally took a percocet the day before his probation visit. He thought it was his naproxen for a hand condition. He was prescribed percocet after a dental extraction months ago. Would the urine screening show as Cocaine and Opiates? He was arrested for this but it was totally unintentional. Or, is he lying about this situation? ## I haven't had coke for over 10 years. I'm on hydromorphone and dilaudid for back pain and I tested positive for cocaine. I also take marijuana but I don't know how this could have happened?

I also want to know if half a pill will work just as if I took a whole one? ## NP 12 is Oxycodone. It is very dangerous to cut or break it. ## This tablet is manufactured by Zydus Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 10mgs of Oxycodone in a regular release formulation, so yes, it can be cut, if your doctor approves.

Hello, if I took 3 pills (i think 5 or 7.5 oxy), and I hadn't had any since 3 months before that, would this likely show up in a HAIR drug test? I am reading online that it's there for 3 months in hair, but some are saying that's only with repeated use. What's the deal?

I always take my pills as prescribed. Why is my lab work suddenly coming up empty? I would never betray my dr. I like her a lot. Am in serious pain through my whole body with arthritis and fibromyalgia. For short I've gone to 3 pain clinics. They said they can't help me. I have degenerative disease (that's deterioration).

Actavis Percocet has to be fake!!!! It's that bad!!!!!! The stuff just does NOT work it's not just me, everyone is having the same problem! I wish the authorities would do something about this company. Every med I've tried that was made by Actavis "Does Not Work" "Has to be Fake Meds"
