Re: Percocet and Pregnancy

I was given Percocet also very, VERY early in pregnancy (I did not even know at the time I was pregnant) Upon finding out I was pregnant, I asked the same question, and was told that Percocet is a class C drug. Class C was explained to me as a drug that has not had enough significant testing to say whether the drug will or will not harm a fetus. It seems to me that Class C drugs are handed out quite often, even though the effects are unknown. If they have not said anything to this point about any abnormalities or defects, I wouldn't worry about it. Good Luck!!
