Percocet is an opioid — a combination of oxycodone and acetaminophen (Tylenol) but the report doesn’t specify what opioid was in Prince’s system before he died.
Recall that 6 days before his death, Prince had nearly died from a Percocet overdose that forced an emergency landing in Moline, IL … where he had to get a “save” shot.
