Anacin (aspirin and caffeine) is a combination of a salicylate and a stimulant. It works by reducing substances in the body that cause pain, fever, and inflammation. Caffeine is used in this product to increase the pain relieving effects of aspirin.

Anacin is used to treat headaches, muscle pain, minor arthritis pain, and fever or body aches caused by the common cold. Anacin is sometimes used to treat or prevent heart attacks, strokes, and chest pain (angina). Anacin should be used for cardiovascular conditions only under the supervision of a doctor.

Percocet contains a combination of acetaminophen and oxycodone. Oxycodone is an opioid pain medication. An opioid is sometimes called a narcotic. Acetaminophen is a less potent pain reliever that increases the effects of oxycodone.

Percocet is used to relieve moderate to severe pain.

Due of the risks of addiction, abuse, and misuse, even at recommended doses, Percocet is only prescribed when treatment with non-opioid pain relieving medication has not been tolerated or has not provided adequate pain relief.
