Low Price Percocet
Percocet® (oxycodone/APAP) is a prescription medicine approved for the treatment of moderate to moderately severe pain. Because this drug is a controlled substance, there are special laws and regulations for selling and obtaining it. Many people will search online to find Percocet at a low price, but it is important to make sure that these products are legitimate (meaning they are sold by a legitimate online pharmacy).
Legitimate pharmacies will not sell Percocet without a prescription. Because you can be assured that you are getting the "real thing" only from a legitimate pharmacy, buying this drug without a prescription increases your risk of getting a substandard or dangerous product. Some Web sites offer to provide a prescription for Percocet after a "consultation," usually consisting of a short questionnaire. This is not considered a legitimate prescription.
It is also important to keep in mind that the drug is not considered safe for use without a healthcare provider's supervision. Some people should not take the drug for certain health reasons. Without the supervision of a healthcare provider, people may be more likely to suffer dangerous side effects or toxicities due to Percocet.
