Addiction and Abuse Potential

Oxycodone, the opioid in Percocet, is highly addictive. Repeated use can lead to physical dependence, where the body adapts to the presence of the drug and requires it to function normally. Psychological addiction may also develop, where users crave the euphoric effects and lose control over their usage.

Some individuals begin using Percocet for legitimate medical reasons and later find themselves dependent. Others may misuse it recreationally for the high it provides. Abuse of Percocet can include taking higher doses than prescribed, crushing tablets to snort or inject, or combining it with other substances.

Due to its high abuse potential, Percocet is classified as a Schedule II controlled substance under the U.S. Controlled Substances Act.
