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 1,000 mg tylenol every 6 hours. Extra strength tylenol has 500 mg tylenol and percoset has 325 mg tylenol so that would be 825 mg tylenol. If you do take the tylenol and percocet, take them together and be sure and write down what time you take them and how much you take.
