Hi Dee,

Based on my research, both Percocet and Roxicet contain Oxycodone + Acetaminophen. My guess is that your body may be reacting to whatever binders/fillers and other "inactive" ingredients are in the Roxicet formula, that weren't present in the Percocet formula. The inactive ingredients can change how the medication is absorbed as well as its bioavailability. You aren't the only one who is experiencing issues with the Roxicet, others have complained that it doesn't seem to be as effective. How long have you been taking the Roxicet? Have you spoken with your doctor or pharmacist about the issues your experiencing?

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Roxicet Details

The percocet with imprint "512" should be 5/325 strength - manufactured by Ma

"Roxicet" is just another name for percocet essentially, but these pills would be manufactured by Roxane Laboratories, Inc. Most likely they have the imprint "54 543" which is also 5/325 strength.

Both are high quality pills.

You may want to ask your doctor if it is OK for you to take a benedryl along with your pain pill. This should help the itchiness. Otherwise, hope that it goes away soon.

Hope this helps.
