Percocet Withdrawal Or Tolerance To Durg
(Newest replies first)

I'm hoping someone understands what is going on with me. I have chronic pain from fibromyalgia. I've been on Percocet for a year. Approx. 2 1/2 hours after I take a pill, my pain starts to return. Am I building up a tolerance to the dosage I'm on or could this be withdrawal symptoms? I'm on 5/325mg 3X per day. How many hours after your last pill can you develop withdrawal symptoms?

You need to get off of it, its very dangerous to your liver and kidneys.
Anything sooner than 4 hours you risk death. And im not being overly dramatic. Im a nurse and i see totally healthy people blow out their livers on percocet all the time, from overdosing and/or taking with alcohol.
Coma is the other issue.

Hi Bubbles! If u have been taking it 4 a year, u can develop a tolerance. When I was on pain pills, I needed an increase in dosage a few times, throughout the years. R u taking more than prescribed, sometimes? Then your body would b use 2 the increase, and, would experience some withdrawals.
