Answer:

If it is flat and scored on one side, it's probably 325 mg acetaminophen/ 5 mg oxycodone...(generic regular strength Percocet). <<<ADR>>>

A perfect answer! Perhaps, we should only add that Percocet is a compound pain killer, and the medication is also known under other brand names which include Endocet and Tylox. As for the round white pill indexed "512" on one side and scored on the other, it is a generic version for Percocet manufactured by Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals. someone said it was only used for dentle pain. That is untrue. it is used for moderate to severe pain of any kind and can be very addictive.

It is very difficult to define a pill simply by the number it has on the side. The numbers mainly serve as an identifier for the companies to organize and keep track of the different drugs. As many different companies use different identifier systems, it is hard to tell what drug you have by simply knowing the number written on the side.

You can do a search in certain pharmaceutical databases to find it. I have done it for you this time and found it to be Oxycodone 5 mg and Acetaminophen 325 mg. It is an analgesic medication, used for painkilling.

This is a numbered prescription pill, and should not be taken if you are not prescribed it. The number "512" appears on Percocet 325 mg/5 mg tablets, commonly prescribed for dental pain, and has no other use. Accidental ingestion can cause stomach pains or nausea on an empty stomach. This medication is a controlled substance, but only an abused narcotic when taken in very large doses.

There are several pills with that imprint, shape and color. It is best to ask a Pharmacist.
