due to the fact that my dr had me on 10/650 hydrocodone/acetaminophen 8 x day for a few years my liver test were extreamly high. he even called me personally and asked if i was alive (not funny at the time). he switched me to 10mg oxycodone and no acetaminophen what-so-ever. ibuprofen is all i'm allowed. though my case may be rare i don't recommend acetaminophen to be taken daily ever. be sure you know the warning signs as i was vomiting alot and very tired all the time for no reason.
is there a risk of liver damage if i take acetaminophen with my prescription pain medicine (oxycodone)? . i have suffered for many years with low back pain. in the past two years i have had to start taking prescription pain relievers. currently i am taking roxycodone 15mg on as needed basis. my dr. said i could take over the counter pain relievers with the roxys if i was still experiencing pain. i know there is a risk of liver damage more so with one than the other acetaminophen or ibuprofen so which is the best for me to take with my prescription pain meds? thank you.
