Kim, Oxycocet isn't an NSAIDs, so you are fine there. It is a tylenol based combination medication. It is 5 mg of oxycodone and 325 mg of acetaminophen (tylenol). What you do have to be attentive to is how much tylenol you are getting in over a 24 hour period. The maximum that is safe is 4000mg of Tylenol per 24 hours. Each pill has 325 mg of tylenol so you can safely take 12 pills in 24 hours. So if you are taking 2 every 4 hours you are getting in 4000mg in 24 hours. So you are fine. Just don't take any Tylenol in conjunction with it or you will be getting too much Tylenol.
