Brief Answer:
Perocet known to cause such problems. Suboxone low risk.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
Perocet is known to cause dry mouth as well as irregualrities in bowel movements. If you have been taking suboxone without any problems earlier, chances are that you would do fine even after the heart surgery. However, you would have to discuss about the feasibility with your treating physician.
Let me know if I could help further.
