Can you use codeine and percocet together?

Answer 1

Doctors won't normally recommend it, but you can. In addition to the high amount of Percocet that I use, I also have severe migraines, which affects a different part of the nervous system that Percocet won't affect.

In those cases I use a drug call Fiorinal with Codeine, which is a combination drug containing Butalbital, Aspirin and Codeine, with a shot of Caffeine as well. I don't feel any problems from the interaction, and Percocet opiate levels are at pretty high levels in my system.

Every person is different though, so even though you can take them together doesn't mean you should or that it will affect you the same as it does me. Always check with your MD first or your Pharmacist. Pharmacists are usually more up front and honest than MD's are.

Answer 2

You can in very small doses but mixing opiates is dangerous. I'm on Percocet for life pretty much, and I've done it and wouldn't advise it. The reaction can possibly be death. They're both lung depressants just saying.
