Does percoset make you sick?

Any narcotics can give you nausea and vomiting. There are also many other side effects they can produce. Interestingly, this irritation does not start in your stomach, but is the result of the narcotic hitting a certain center in your brain centrally, causing these effects. You need to discuss any previous or current problems concerning the side effects with your plastic surgeon. Other alternatives are usually available.

Narcotics can definitely make you nauseated.  You will need something for pain relief.  There are other options.   You just need to ask your surgeon.

Percocet is a strong medication prescribed by your doctor for the pain control after the surgery. As any medication this one also can have sometimes not very pleasant side effects. Many patients do not feel great after taking it, especially if they take it on empty stomach. Patients usually have a lack of appetite right after the procedure and do not follow important instruction about taking medications. Patients often report nausea, vomiting, feeling little light headed, having stomach pain. If patient cannot tolerate this particular medication surgeon can prescribe different one that will control pain as well, but will be more friendly for the patient.Most pain medication will cause constipation, therefore patient is advised to have some stool softeners handy, drink lots of fluids. However you should check with your surgeon and discuss your symptoms. There maybe other serious reasons other than Percocet

All narcotics have the potential to produce nausea and vomiting. Some patients are affected worse than others. Also, some patients have post-op nausea that can continue for a few days even without further narcotic use. Ask your doctor if you can start using NSAID's. If your pain is still significant, discuss using another narcotic and see if you can tolerate that better. 

Narcotics like Percocet commonly cause nausea and sometimes even vomiting.  This is not an allergy, but a side effect.

  Congratulations on having undergone the tummy tuck procedure. Unfortunately, many of the medications, including the narcotics (such as Percocet) can cause nausea, vomiting, and constipation. Your plastic surgeon will be your best resource when it comes to medication ( and side effect) management. Best wishes.

The narcotic in Percocet often causes severe nausea and vomiting.  At this point, you may not need the pain medication.  Contact your surgeon regarding your concerns.  Best wishes!
