If percocet is taken during day, is it safe to take the norco at night

Just thought I would ask I have had to recently increase my pain meds while waiting to get into the surgeon, I take one percocet 10-325 in am, one in early afternoon & lately have had to take one late evening, but since is normally right before I retire for the night I was wondering if anyone knew if it is safe to take the norco at night, I always make sure the meds are spaced at least 6hrs or more apart. I will ask the doc but wont seeing him for awhile. I am afraid of running out of the perocet before the next visit due to having to up them as of last week, which the doc said to do if I had to. the norco did not work well but I thought perhaps night time would not be so bad since I am normally relaxing by then. I tried to not take an evening/night dose & was up all night & had major pain this morning, even tried taking some motrin to see if it would help to avoid the third dose, not much relief there. Anyone know if it would be safe the norco is also 10-325. Thanks, Sammy
