Can I Take Two 5 / 325 Percocet Every 4 Hours
UpdatedI just had major surgery on my leg and have lots of pain. I was wondering if taking two 5 / 325 Percocet every four hours for pain is safe? Please let me know asap :/

You should not increase your dosage, without your doctor's approval.
The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.
That's not what would be considered a dangerous dose, but it may be too much for some people that aren't opiate tolerant.
Is there anything else I can help with?
