Not sure I agree. I am the opposite of Kate. After surgery, percocet didn't
work very well for me. Generic oxycodone (without the acetaminophen) worked
better. And it may not be the active ingredients that create the issue.

I get different responses to different brands of a medicine. All I can guess
is that the inert binders affect how much of the medication I absorb, or
maybe the absorption rate.
