Prescribe Pain Killer For Tooth Extraction.

hello, are you able to answer a question for me? I have just gotten my wisdom teeth taken out on Thursday and was prescribed pain killers percocet... 5mg of oxycodone and 325mg of acetaminophenen... I have been feeling dizzy from these pain killers and very agitated with people around me. Is this normal? Is there another pain killer I can take instead to help with the pain such as a tylenol that will not give me such side effects?
