Can Wine Be Consumed While On Percocet?

Hello, I am recovering at home from a total hip replacement performed one week ago. I am taking Percocet for pain. Two pills every Four hours. My Question is can I have a single glass of wine with my supper. Also how and when should I begin to cut back to getting off Percocet completely ?

Hi
A single glass of wine with supper should be fine
As for tapering off the Percocet, you should ask your doctor about that but I would have you start the tapering process now
