By how to take it do you mean orally? If you know that you're supposed to take 2 a day than there would be directions on the bottle. It should say Take 1 pill twice a day by mouth or something like that.

Does it say on your pill bottles? That is strange that she/he prescribed both. Perhaps to alternate? Norco generally lasts 4 hours and Percocet 6 hours. You definately shouldn't need the both at once...I would alternated until you get a call back.
