Percocet is an analgesic drug, a combination of oxycodone and acetaminophen, used to treat moderate to severe pain. It is a Schedule II controlled substance, meaning it has a high potential for abuse and addiction. Percocet is typically prescribed for short-term pain relief, such as after surgery or an injury. It is not recommended for long-term use due to its addictive properties. Percocet is available in both generic and brand-name forms. The generic form is typically less expensive than the brand-name version. It is available in a variety of strengths, ranging from 2.5 mg to 10 mg of oxycodone and 300 mg to 650 mg of acetaminophen.
