Hi Cathie,

Are you sure about that butrans dosage? Is it 5 mcg (rather than 5 mg)?

Those effects could be the butrans, the gabapentin, the butrans interacting with the percocet, or some combination. They should subside within a few days to a month (everyone's different) but if they are intolerable, or anything more serious occurs, I think a call to the doctor is appropriate.

You know the drill.... Use Google and read up on them.

Hoping it all works out for you with far less/no pain,

Doc
