I had a tooth pulled with an infected root. I was prescribed percocet for it. I will be done five days before having surgery on my carpal tunnel. Will it be okay?

What has your surgeon advised? It is always best to follow their instructions.

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

Are you on any other medications?
