Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have taken Percoset 10/325 twice a day for 3 yrs. I am having a hip replacement in 3 wks. In last month I have been getting PVC s and feel it s from Perc. What should I do ? Get off before surgery or wait? I m having a lot of pain but don t like the PVC s
Percocet may not cause PVC but it may aggravate the atrial fibrillation.
It is better to get PVCs to treated than you may undergo hip joint surgery. Please consult your physician/gynecologist, he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query.
