The same, basically, except that 5 mg tabs of percocet also contain 500 mg of Tylenol (acetaminophen). Percocet is the same as oxycodone otherwise. If people need higher doses of pain meds they are usually given higher doses of oxycodone since the higher doses of Tylenol in percocet can be damaging to the liver and other organs.

Will 15 mg of percocet and 5mg of percocet show as the same on a drug test?

If you take oxycodone 30mg or 5mg the drug test will show up with just oxycodone in your system. The average life span in your urine is 3 days. The only type of testing that would show quantity is a toxicology test. Who is gonna get that? Someone who died of an overdose. Fyi - Oxycodone is percocet. If your taking a 30mg tablet you will not have any Tylenol in the pill. Percocet is oxycodone and Tylenol. And usually is prescribed as 5mg. Percodan is oxycodone and ibuprofen. If you are worried that your doctor will find out you are taking much more oxycodone than you are prescribed, don't. If you are worried about the actual drug showing up in a drug test, stop 3 days before the test.


Does Oxycontin and percoset show up separate?

Percocet and Oxycontin are brand names of two medications both containing the opiate/narcotic, oxycoDONE. The difference is that percocet is oxycodone and acetaminophen aka Tylenol, also sold in various dosages under names such as endocet or oxycodone/apap to name a couple. Oxycontin is the time released version of oxycodone containing no 'Tylenol'.


Are two oxycodone 5 mg the same strength as one oxycodone 10 mg?

If you are talking about pills with only oxycodone in them, yes, 2 x 5 = 10. However, if you are talking about something like Percocet or a generic of it, they are not the same because of the acetomenophen in them. Each percocet 5 or 10 has 500 mg acetomenophen (tylenol) in it, so 2 5's have 1000 mg acetomenophen, and 1 10 mg percocet has only 500 mg acetomenophen.


Is 10 325 the strongest Percocet?

The numbers denote milligrams of medication. The 10 and 5 denote milligrams of oxycodone, the opioid analgesic in each. The 325 is milligrams of acetaminophen (Tylenol). Therefore, the 10 mg Percocet would be stronger.

Does percodan make 10-325 strength?

According to Nursing 2011 Drug Handbook, the answer to Percodan-325, the answer is no. Percodan is a compound of two different formulas for oxycodone to equal 4.88 mg of oxycodone (again two formulas) and 325 mg of aspirin. Percocet is a compound of oxycodone and acetaminophen (Tylenol) and is manufactured in varying strengths of both oxycodone and acetaminophen.
