Question about my pain killer?!

Question about my pain killer?

i just had all 4 of my wisdom teeth taken out friday, 3 are healing up perfectly but one is killing me, im on a generic percocet the name is oxycodone 325 mg, and it makes me really sleepy and groggy, but what has me worried is it makes me real dizzy.. is that normal or do i need to get a differant pain killer?

Oxycodone is an analgesic that causes drowsiness, nausea, dizziness, and lightheadedness. Your symptoms are normal. If you take your meds on a full stomach it might relieve your symptoms a little, but when taking a painkiller as strong as the one you are it is completely normal. This is why it states that you shouldn't drive or operate heavy machinery while taking them.
