Taking 1 Percocet Every 6 To 8 Hrs And Running Out Early

Updated May 23, 2017

My Dr appointments are every 28 to 30 days. I have been running out of my meds on the 23rd or 24th day. My Dr said he wouldn't fill it early again. If I go on the 25th day is that considered early?

What are the details on the prescription?

If your doctor has prescribed them to be taken on an as needed basis, they may be expecting the amount prescribed to last a full 30 days. But if they are prescribed to be taken on a regular basis, that may change things.

The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth.
