Can I take Celebrex and Percocet together for post-operative (BA) pain/inflammation?

Asked By:greatskin9 in New York, NY

I'm soon getting a breast augmentation and was wondering if Celebrex and Percocet could be used together, or if I should start with Percocet and then switch to Celebrex. I was prescribed both, but I'm reading mixed things about bleeding risk, so I wanted to get second opinions. How would you prescribe these two medications to your patients?
