What Is The Least Sedating Narcotic Pain Killer
UpdatedI am taking 10mg Oxymorphone twice a day, with Vicodin 7.5/325 for breakthrough. If I have occasion to need the Vic I take 1 tablet and it knocks me out the first day and renders me too drowsy and weak to be useful for 2 or 3 more days! Any advice/suggestions?

Hello, Lisa! How are you?
All narcotics can cause sedation and drowsiness, so there's no way to say which one won't cause you such a problem. Everyone is different and the only thing you can really do is try other ones to see which one causes you the least amount of problematic side effects.
Percocet might be an option that you could discuss with your doctor. It contains Oxycodone and Acetaminophen and the Oxycodone tends to give energy to more people than many other narcotics.

Since it is still an opiate, it has the potential to be habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.
Are these the only ones you've tried, so far?
