Hi, This happened to me also and I went through all kinds of labs ect.. And finally had a liver biopsy only to find out it was only a fatty liver.. Don't get nervous about things but make sure your doctor finds the reason for the changes. My Liver specialist told me that fatty liver is very common and I should not take Tylenol or anything containing accetomitophin, or anti inflammatory meds. I pray you can get all the info you need...
GOD BLESS You.

Hello, Trish! How are you?

The elevated enzymes are most likely caused by the oral medication, not the patch, since it isn't processed directly through the liver.

There are formulations of Oxycodone available without anything else added that your doctor can prescribe, so it won't have as much of an impact on your liver as the Percodan does.

This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

How high are your enzymes levels?
