I got knee surgery 2 days ago and i'm taking percocet for the pain. it works well for the pain but it makes me itchy can i take some benadryl (diphenhydramine) with it?

Percocet: This is a common side effect and Benadryl (diphenhydramine) is fine to use. It's not an allergy and you can use Percocet as needed which shouldn't be much longer.
