A member asked:

Can i take percocet after getting a steroid shot for a cold ? worried about heart palpitations

A doctor has provided 1 answer

WHY??: Steroid shots are never used for "colds". Why do you want to take Percocet? Yes, you can take Percocet after a steroid shot. Do you have heart palpitations or are you worried about a future attack? None of this makes enough sense for any advise except to see a Dr if you are in some kind of distress.
