What are the side affects taking percocet and Valium together?
Some side effects of OxyContin include: Drowziness, dizziness, nausea, euphoria, and itchiness.I would add low blood pressure, especially on standing up from a sitting position. Bad dreams (resulting in disturbed sleep), memory loss and confusion are major ones, with a lack of being able to concentrate and focus. Constipation is common. 'Drowsiness' is too weak a term, I'd prefer sleepiness, especially when trying to concentrate for any length of time.When your doctor prescribes Oxycontin, he/she should accompany it with an anti-nausea medication, and a laxative.Added a few years later: taking OC for chronic pain condition, I've noticed that when late with the next 12-hr dose, I get restless legs, diarrhea, headachey, and sometimes, shivers. Also, when the present dose is wearing off, my head gets a bit 'thick'. The very strong and active (sometimes awful) dreams don't reduce in time; they're horrible and exhausting.Even though it's an advanced pain reliever, do think twice (and more) before taking on OC. It's not a nice medicine to be on, even if it's necessary. Take as low a dose as possible.
