Suggest Alternative Medication For Back Pain

my husband has been taking aurobindo percocet 7.5-325 for back pain with good results..we went to have a new rx filled and the pharmacy only had alvogen brand, this is not working for him...can we safely double the dose until we see the dr? Can we take 15mg-325 3 time daily safely?

Dear. you can tell him to take an extra pill but no more than 4 a day for few days until you get the regular pill. it is important to avoid that due to higher doses is acetaminophen can damage his liver.
