No, Oxycodone is in Percocet. If you're meaning Oxycontin and Percocet; the answer is still no because Oxycodone is the ingredient in Oxycontin and the same drug used in Percocet. The only difference is that it may show a higher amount of it, just say you took a few extra Percocet You're good either way though. Oxycontin just is a time released capsule with a large amount of Oxycodone(10-80mg/Each) in it and Percocet has a small immediate effective amount of Oxycodone(5-10mg/Each) mixed with APAP ([325-650mg/each] acetaminophen, Tylenol, etc.) in it. Hope that answers you're question pretty well. Have fun ;) and stay safe! -Patrick (Future Pharmaceutical tech)

∙ 14y agohey person i used to have a pretty hefty oxy addction and also was on probation for marijuana poss./distribution so i had to pee in the cup for the man lots. i did fail my urine tests but only when i had been using oxy or percocet for like a week stright. If i had been clean for a few days the ua would never come up positive, the levels of oxycodone in your system have to be pretty high to show up as an "opiate" or the test has to be directly for oxycodone, which is expensive. To answer your question for a urine drug test to tell the difference between percoet (oxycodone) and hydrocodone it would have to be a very expensive test such as one the man (probation) does or if you are working at some place that wnts you to pee in the cup before you get hired. If they are going to send the sample to a lab for testing they can tell the difference between the 2 drugs, if that is what they are told to do. If it is a buy in the box ua from a store it is not going to be high tech enough to tell the difference, it only will come up as an "opiate" and that is if the levels in your system are high enough to test positive.

What is the chemical difference in the urine between Vicodan and Percocet?
Vicodin is a class 3 narcotic, with hydrocodone. Percocet is a class 2 narcotic with oxycodone, which is a much stronger narcotic derivative. The risk of addiction varies with the dosage (small), with the length of time the drug is used and the personality of the patient. http://www.druginfonet.com/index.php?pageID=faq/faqvico.htm
What if you take Vicodin when you run out of percocet?
If you take that in place of your percocet,and you have to take a urine test, you will show up with "Hydrocodone" in your system rather than "Oxycodone"....or both depending on how long its been since you took percocet. That might not set well with your doctor. Hope this helps.

Does morphine and percocet have urine smelling?
Yes - morphine, percocet, hydrocodone, & oxycodone can all make your urine smell strange. Some people have compared the scent to dirty socks. Even drinking lots of water doesn't always help - sometimes water with lemon juice lessens the odor.
Does lortab and percocet show up same in urine?
Absolutely not... Lortab is another name for vicodin, hydrocodone, or norco. Percocet or oxycodone has a different chemical make up from the lortab or vicodin. They are and can be detected separately on a U.A.

In a dip test it will just show as opiates. In a lab test they can distinguish the difference
Can a employment drug screen tell the difference between percoset and vicodin?

Can urine test have codeine show up when patient was using percocet?
No it will not show up as percocet
If you have prescription for hydrcodone but took a oxycodone and now its being sent to lab think it would pass?
You will most likely not pass because one is hydrocodone, and the other is oxycodone. The difference between the tow is that hydrocodone works in the blood stream, while the other attaches to the sinus. Being that they work in two different ways that could cause a negative result, but if the doctor does the test through urine you may be alright since it all goes through yours system and ends in the bladder for any of the oral drugs. So the urine test would just show them as opiates, not as percocet, or vicodin.
What is the difference between urine and feces?
