Wendy "tylox" which is oxycodone does slow breathing. Only taking one is rare that you could feel that effect but if you have not really taken it before it could. That is why they prescribe cough syrup with "codiene" or "hyrdocodone/vicodin" becuase it slows your breathing which slows the coughing. If it did not do it the first time it is strange it did the second, it should go away but I would call your doctor and let him know what happened. Have you ever had panic attacks? Just curious.

I just got back from my Dr. He gave me a cortisomething shot in the arm and some prescription for the rash and itch if the shot doesn't clear it up completely. He said since I have had percocet before without a reaction that it is probably just the generic cheap brand Tylox.. some kind of preservative or something in it.

Which seems to be a consistent pattern. I am allergic to a preservative in Benedryl. hmmmm... :roll:

Somebody shoot me.

BTW.. I don't have panic attacks.. never have.. hopefully never will.

Wendy, what you experienced sounds very much like an allergic reaction to the drug and you shouldn't take it again because next time, it could be extremely serious! I am not a medical professional, but I do have enough experience with certain drugs, the effects and allergic reactions. (personal experiece is a great teacher, believe me!).

The breathing difficulty is a serious side effect and a indicator there is a reaction going on, plus add on the itching! Please don't take that med again. And notify your pharmacy so they can red flag your profile.

Looks like I was typing my response when you wrote this.

Glad you went to the doc!
