Hi. Recently prescribed percocet 10/325 and that is presumably double the 5/325 previously given. To save money, and if extra pain relief isn't needed, is it ok to split the pill? It is NOT a capsule...and I remember that I have done the same thing with other meds.
By the time I realized that there was no break mark on the pill, the doc's office was closed. I left a message for Monday. Thanks, and I know you are just giving opinions. Carlos

,,,will have a much better solution ...
Any thoughts on what the solution would be? The only other thought I had was that I was getting so little of the acet. that I ought to add regular tylenol.
Thanks

i would not use any
i would not use any more Tylenol.. but that is just my opinion.. it is up to you if you want to or not....but there is still the same amount oxycodone..
It is perfectly fine to split the 10/325 percocet pill. I believe you can buy pill splitters or you can just take your best shot but I would recommend the splitter. Since you talk to your doctor soon I am sure he or she will have a much better solution but for the mean time I guess you must do what you feels best. Good Luck
