They are very similar drugs- In fact, if you go to to most pharmacies with a prescription for either, and you ask for generic, you may get the same thing as replacement. Also, the triplicate prescription one needs for percocet is not needed with vocodin. But, I may be off here with one thing- Is percocet compounded with aspirin? I know that Vicodin is hydrocoone with Tylenol and can''t remember if the percoocet has asa or acet.. or if it's percodan that is compounded with asa or Acet.. hmm; ask him or her!
