Can Butrans Skin Patches Be Used While On Percocet?

I just had a discogram and my Dr. took me off of my butrans patch 15mcg. I have been off it a week and taking Percocet instead. Question is do I have to use a lower dose first or Can I just put my butran patch 15mcg on right away? Can I take it with Percocet? I use to take it with hydrocodone 5 mg.
