Sun May 30 2010I have an autoimmune disorder and endometriosis. This is the only medication I have used other than Lortab that puts a dent in the pain. Because of Percogesic, I'm able to use Lortab only on the truly bad days. I highly recommend it for arthritis, fibromyalgia, back pain, migraines, and endometriosis pain.

Sat Aug 01 2009It's the only OTC medicine I can find that even puts a dent in my pain. I have rheumatoid arthritis and need my second hip replacement (even though I'm only 25), but don't have insurance. Until someone can work something out and I stop getting denied by insurance companies, I will keep my pharmacy in business buying this.

Fri Jun 20 2008I have been taking this product since the 70's. I only have to use one tablet to get releif from arthritis/muscle pain. I don't have to worry about my blood thinning too much with this also.

Sun Oct 14 2007I have been experiencing severe migraines in tandum with my Epilepsy. While waiting for a prescription, I was looking at the otc stuff to take the edge off. I had never seen Percogesic before so I figured that I had nothing to lose. On my next trip to the pharmacy, I picked up 3 bottles to pass out to friends. I could not get over how effective it was. I aslo used it in the later stages of the healing of my broken foot and other aches and pains that come with the injuries/falls as a result of the epilepsy.

Fri Jun 15 2007I never heard of Percogesic until a friend suggested it. It is great for relieving pain. I bought the generic form which was Genasec and paid $5 vs $10. I don't know what the difference is between the traditional pain relievers, but it works.

Thu Mar 15 2007I use Percogesic specifically for a sleep aid. I was told that it would do the trick because of the antihistamine in the drug. So far it has been doing the trick, but should I continue to use this drug for this specific problem. I have tried every other kind of sleep aid that there is and it just doesn't do the trick. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks

Mon Aug 29 2005Endometriosis and heavy menstral pain run in my family. Percogesic has been our family secret to help the pain. However, the only true cure for Endo is excision and I highly recommend using a specialist. There aren't many in country, but do your research and save yourself many surgeries.

Sat Nov 22 2003I purchased a bottle of Percogesic a couple of months ago and I still get great relief but am unhappy with the change in size and the coating is different. The change in the tablet makes it hard to swallow, I would be really happy if the tablets would be returned to the previous size and coating.

Fri Oct 24 2003I'd never heard of Percogesic before until our doctor recommended it for my husband's shoulder pain from an old injury. It's available over the counter, and though it can be a little more expensive than other pain relievers (watch for a sale or coupon), it really does the trick! Percogesic knocks out headaches, muscle and joint pain, and menstrual cramps. It's a great medicine, and more people should think about giving it a try!
