Tylenol No. 3 is acetomiaphen 325mg/ codeine phosphate 30 mg.
Pecoocet is 325 of acetocminaphen/ 5mg of oxycodone
so you get the same amount of tylenol(acetominophen) is either pill
30mg of codeine= 5mg of hydrocodone = 2.5 of oxcodone,
so Tylenol no. 3 is about half the strength of a percocet as far as the narcotics end of it goes. a Tylenol 4 would be simular strength narcotic wise.
When in doubt ask your pain managment specialist

No
Tylenol #3 has 1/4 grain of Codeine and Percoset has 1/2 grain of oxacodone.(much stronger)

No, I've been on both for pain and find percocet does a much better job. Also the tylenol 3 can leave you feeling itchy,due to the codeine in it. Percocet doesnt contain codeine...it contains oxycodone and acetaminophen and it usually does a better job for pain than tylenol 3. But be careful taking it for too long b/c the "nice feeling" it gives you can also be addicting.Don't want your next question asking about where the best rehabs are for percocet withdrawal.lol

Hi..I guess experiencing the pain at a certain moment makes one feel weaker, but surmounting it can give you more courage if you should face it again somehow, from learning how it was, And yet by knowing how to survive it will make you stronger each time.. Mental pain is curable when you try to.. To relax and be genuinely happy in someways that you can.. Or with some proper medication for treatment. I wish you always well..! Thank you..

Depends on the dosage of percoset. Percodan has oxycodone, a very strong analgesic with high addiction rate. Codeine is not higly addictive and is a good analgesic.

no it's not. percoset is used for people that have intense pain like from cancer treatmetns. my mom had cervical cancer had to have chemo and radiation 4 times a week and this was just one of the pain relievers the drs. gave her. thank god she's cancer free today!

Percocet depending on the level of your pain. Don't want to get hooked on any of that, also don't overdue it on the OCT stuff either.
