You may experience itching as a result of an allergy to the medication. If you are itching, stop taking it and see your doctor.

Any type of opiate can have this adverse affect on people. The percocet has an opiate derivitive in it, which causes the itching and could also cause a rash too.

The reason why Percocet makes you Itch is because you must be suffering from chronic pain and have fibromyalgia. And you must be taking oxycodone, it will take time not to worry.
