Concerned about mixing pain medications for severe tooth pain. Safety advice needed!

As a fitness professional, I normally focus on optimizing health through exercise and nutrition. However, I'm currently dealing with a painful dental issue and have concerns about medication interactions. I was prescribed Tylenol with codeine and antibiotics for an abscessed tooth. I took the recommended dose at 12:30pm, but the pain persisted. At 3pm I took a second dose, and at 6:30pm I also took a Percocet 10 out of desperation. As someone not accustomed to these medications, I'm worried about potential side effects or interactions. I have a pre-existing heart condition and a small frame (5'6", 100lbs). Can anyone with medical expertise advise if this combination is safe or if I should take any precautions? I want to manage the pain responsibly while avoiding any health risks. Thanks in advance for any guidance!
