If your doctor approves, you can cut these tablets to continue lowering your dose, since the Percocet isn't time released.

Alternatively, your doctor could also prescribe a lower dose for you.

The FDA classifies this medication 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.

How long have you been taking it?
