Should I

I have 6 percocet left, and cannot refill until  4/3 or so. Should I take them one by one (my usual is 2 per dose) or take one at a time to avoid being ill. I use these for pain, but they do not work as they used to so when I am in pain crying, I take more, and end up running out early. Oh, I am also on MS contin at night (one) extended release, but I still feel it when I am out of percocet. I thought they were both opiates, so why do I get w/d when I am out of percocet? Is it my miond? UGH I hate this, but I also hate being in so much pain I cannot walk. Thanks everyone

They are both opiates.. Do you only take the ms contin at night? when you are out of the perc's, do you  take the ms contin instead, or in it's place?

I would say stretch them out so ur not sick. And for some reason, I have found excedrin migraine to be a little helpful when Im short on pills. See if you can take something else for the pain.
