and yes it is, as of now a requirement that hydrocodone be combined with either aspirin, ibuprofen or acetaminophen although newer class 2 variations are being developed and will require FDA approval.

Here is a list from the DEA of all scheduled drugs. There is no distinction between with acetaminophen and without. Oxycodone (including percocet, which includes acetaminophen) are schedule II.
The FDA has actually
called for manufacturers to limit the amount of acetaminophen to no more than 325/mg per pill.
They have not banned pure oxycodone and cannot for a variety of reasons. They're concerned about too much acetaminophen.
