Constipation is : Common side effect of narcotic analgesics like percocet. There is no listed interaction between those 2 meds. Make certain thyroid function levels r correct: hypothyroid can also contribute to constipation. Caution with valium & Percocet as combo can cause CNS depression & psychomotor impairment. Increase dietary fiber &/or fiber supplements + plenty of fluids. Moderate exercise helps move bowels.

Yes: However, am concerned about combination of valium and percocet. Both are sedating and can mix in a deadly cocktail. Very worrisome. Percocet is the cause of constipation--any way to cut back or talk to doctor about alternative pain control measures? Increase fluids, fiber, consider MiraLAX (polyethylene glycol) which is gentle and effective too. Dulcolax tends to cause cramping; less so with miralax (polyethylene glycol).
