question about percocet - first timer!

[anonymous24601]

SWIM took 2, 5mg percocets an hour ago and doesn’t really feel anything. This is her first ever experience with drugs. She is experiencing a bit of light-headedness, itching, and drowsiness. She doesn’t feel any more relaxed than usual, she just feels normal. But then, she was quite nervous before taking the percs, as it was her first time. She isn’t as nervous now.

She wants to know, is there anything SWIM could do next time for the percs to have a greater effect (other than taking a higher dose, which she doesn’t want to do, unless it’s necessary)? She didn’t eat much during the day (cereal for breakfast, bagel and coffee for lunch, slice of pizza for dinner), and had neither a full or empty stomach. It was somewhere in between. Should she have skipped dinner? She swallowed both pills, without having split them. Swallowing is the ONLY way she will take pills, so will splitting them next time really make a difference? Or will it not really matter? SWIM is 5’ 6” and weighs about 145. Was 10mg too little? How long after taking the pills should she start to feel the effects? How long should they normally last?

SWIM apologizes for her EXTREME ignorance in these matters! She researched and couldn’t really find the answers to her questions. She’d much appreciate any and all help or advice she could get here. Edited by: anonymous24601
