Ive been taking Percocet for three years 7.5/325 x 6/day with no problems. Over the past couple of weeks I started to wheeze after taking my medication. I have asthma, and cant take NSAIDs because they give me asthma symptoms also. Percocet is now giving me the same asthma symptoms so I  need to come off of it ASAP. I am going to call my PM doctor tomorrow in the meantime I am taking Benadryl and mucinex with the Percocet to combat the asthma symptoms. Has anyone else ever been in this situation? If yes, what did your doctor do for you? I have a host of serious medical problems so I know I cant detox on my own. My addiction to Percocet is purely physical, I have no psychological attachment to the drug which hopefully will work in my favor. Do you think I will need to detox in a facility/hospital etc...? Any and all advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi, welcome to Chat Doctor forum.  You are taking percent since 3 years, for past 2 weeks, you are getting wheeze. You have asthma, and get wheeze with the painkillers, but never got with the percent.  So now the wheeze may not be due to the percent, may be due to some other allergen which is recently introduced to your diet or Chat Doctor.  Try to find it and avoid it.  Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
