History
The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) first approved Percocet in 1976, under application ANDA 085106.[4]
Society and culture
Implicated in deaths
In June 2009, an FDA advisory panel recommended that Percocet, Vicodin, and every other combination of acetaminophen with narcotic analgesics[5] be limited in their sales because of their contributions to an alleged 400 acetaminophen-related deaths in the U.S. each year, that were attributed to acetaminophen overdose and associated liver damage.[6]
In December 2009, the Canadian Medical Association Journal reported a study finding a fivefold increase in oxycodone-related deaths in Ontario (mostly accidental) between 1991 and 2007 that led to a doubling of all opioid-related deaths in Ontario over the same period.[7][8][9]
In March 2017, US President Donald Trump initiated the Opioid and Drug Abuse Commission.[10] In July 2017, a draft report was published.[11]
