Can I Split A 10/325 And It Help

Updated

I just had surgery and they gave me endocet 10mg, and I'm getting sick in my belly. I've been on percs or hydros at higher doses because of cancer and nothing has ever done this, so can i take half or is the oxy in one half of the tablet and Tylenol in other half?

Yes, Endocet is made up of 10 mg oxycodone, and 325 mg of Tylenol (acetaminophen). Have you taken this generic before? You might just need to eat jello or a popsicle or something light with it to alleviate the nausea, and lay down and move around as little as possible after taking it. Maybe these things will help you feel better. A half of a 10 mg. should help you. If not, and you tolerate it ok, then you could follow the same steps I suggested; and take the other half. Good luck and God Bless, hope you feel better soon!!

I cannot answer your specific question but my wife, with pancreatic/liver cancer, had severe stomach problems and it turned out to be swollen lesions behind the stomach were causing her problem. She was prescribed Ibuprofene 800 mg 3 times per day. I'm not medical so this is only what has been prescribed for us.

To answer your question, no, the oxy is not in one half and acetaminophen (Tylenol) in the other; it is all evenly distributed. So you can cut it in half. It does tend to work best on empty stomach, but since it's making you feel ill, take it with a little food and juice or something. Then sit down, rest, try not to move around much; that's what makes the nausea and dizziness worse. Watch a movie or something and relax. Best.
