It's only safe to take what your doctor has prescribed. I have never known of a doctor to prescribe both to be taken together.
if your allergic to vicoden can you take percocet?
No, percocet contains oxycodone (and laced with plenty of tylenol, of course) and not hydrocodone.
Percocet contains oxycodone and acetaminophen. Lorcet contains hydrocodone and acetaminophen.
the hydrocodone and percocet will show up in the drug screen as the same thing so if you have prescribed percocet and valiums than dont worry about the lortab.....
I believe you mean "Oxycodone" which is the generic name for Percocet or Tylox. My doctors know I am allergic to codeine; but subscribe Oxycodone, which has codeine, but so does percocet. I am waiting for pharmacist to call me know to let me know if it has the same amount. Percocet does not bother my stomach but Oxycodone does.
Vicodin contains hydrocodone and acetaminophen, while Percocet contains oxycodone and acetaminophen. Both are used to treat pain but have different opioid components. Additionally, Percocet is considered stronger than Vicodjson.
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.
Hydrocodone is not percocet. Percocet is a combination oxycodone and acetaminophen. Hydrocodone is the active ingredient in brand name Vicodin, which also has acetaminophen in it. The difference is that oxycodone is a little more potent than hydrocodone, but both are very effective for treatment of pain.
No they can tell the difference between the two of them!!Percocet is Oxycodone,and Hydrocodone is Hydrocodone, also called vicodin,Lorcet,lortab.Hydrocodone and oxycodone are two different things.
yes, always take your vitamins
Hydrocodone and Vicodin are the same thing. Vicodin is namebrand, Hydrocodone is generic. Same thing with Percocet and Oxycodone.
hydrocodone is weaker then oxycodone(active narcotic in percocet) But it is no more harmful. It is the apap that the mix with the tabs that is liver toxic in higher doses
