What is Percocet?
Percocet is a combination of acetaminophen and Oxycodone. Percocet is one of many drugs that fall under the category of an opioid. Opioids bring with them a high risk of addiction because of the way they interact with the brain.
Oxycodone stops pain signals that would otherwise travel from your nerves to your brain. So, while you might be in pain if you take Oxycodone, it prevents your body from registering that painting. When combined with acetaminophen in the form of Percocet, these effects are heightened but so are the risks of abuse. For this reason, it’s often prescribed after things like surgery.
How Are Percocets Used?
Percocet can be prescribed in a tablet taken according to doctor recommendations or a liquid solution. Liquid Percocet takes longer to take effect, so you don’t necessarily feel the pain relief for about an hour. No matter how it’s consumed, it disrupts connections between your pain signals and your brain.

What Are the Side Effects of Percocet Use?
Percocet comes with a lot of potential side effects. Oxycodone can cause serious cardiovascular problems, and too much acetaminophen can damage your liver.
Regular Percocet use and abuse can lead to other negative side effects, including the following:
- Sexual dysfunction
- Mental health issues
- Social isolation
- Interpersonal problems
- Strained relationships
- Workplace issues
- Legal or financial complications
If you struggle with an addiction, Percocet withdrawal brings painful symptoms like insomnia, fever, dysphoria, watery eyes, runny nose, diarrhea, tremors, and excessive sweating.

Are Percocets Addictive?
You might not realize that you need a Percocet drug treatment in South Florida if you don’t appreciate just how addictive Percocet can be.
Many risk factors can increase the likelihood that you get addicted and need a substance abuse treatment center, including the following:
- Having an impulsive personality disorder
- Having a family history of mental illness
- Having a family history of substance abuse
- Having a personal history of mental illness or substance abuse
- Having a prescription for Percocet or otherwise easy access
Women are at a higher risk than men for Percocet abuse. If you are a woman with a family history of substance abuse and a current prescription, you are more likely to need treatment than a man with no current prescription and no family history of addiction.
Whether you have one or more of these risk factors, Atlantic Recovery Center provides the best Percocet treatment in South Florida.
What Are the Symptoms of Percocet Addiction?
Many behavioral symptoms of a Percocet addiction indicate the need for South Florida Percocet rehab. As is the case with any type of substance abuse, it’s common to see someone withdraw socially, take Percocet in larger doses, or, more often than necessary, get into trouble with the law or with work, or struggle financially.
Percocet Use
You might follow your doctor’s orders directly if you have a legitimate prescription. But if you struggle with an addiction, you might try to borrow or steal Percocet from others. Even if you know it’s not good for you and causing you harm, it’s not uncommon to continue despite those negative effects.
