"i recently had a 9 mm and 7 mm kidney stone between my kidney and bladder. too large to pass so i had to have a stent placed to prevent blockage while waiting a week to go back for the procedure to break up the stones to a passable size. i had been given several types of pain meds through i. v. while in the hospital including some that were very powerful including duladid among others. i was sent home for 5 days while waiting for the procedure and was given percocet 10 / 325 1 every 4 hours. without it i couldn&#039;t have tolerated the pain. also had very limited side effects, nothing like what the i. v. meds caused and i felt much safer taking it vs the other more powerful meds. i would recommend this to anyone suffering from kidney stones"
