Talk to your doctor : If you are taking this dose for this period of time, you should be OK to stop without experiencing much withdrawal. If you were to experience any symptoms, however, such as abdominal cramps, muscle aches, nausea, or diarrhea you could take a percocet on an as needed basis (i.e. One per day to alleviate.) Please talk to your doctor about your plans to discontinue a prescribed medication.
