what is hydrocodoneI8 ## I've heard of Hydrocodone, but not of Hydrocodonei8 - where did you see this? Or is i8 the imprint on a pill you have? ## The pill is oval in shape, white no score mark, and has the imprint of I8 on it. I was told it is hydrocodone. When i searched it out it siad it looks out on the medical it said it remsembles a M360 Hydro ## Would you happen to know what country this medication was obtained from?

What is Hydrocodone Acetaminophen 5 / 325 TB used for? I was on the 7.5-325 T before for a hip surgery I had (for the pain). What is the difference? ## Hello, Patty! How are you? The dosage is lower, this one contains 5mgs of Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. If you're asking about the T and TB, there is no difference, they are both just abbreviations for tablet. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

WHAT IS THE T FOR ON THE WHITE HYDROCODONE ACETAMINOPHEN 10-325 BY WATSON THIS IS 10-325 T I RECENTLY CHANGED FROM YELLOW 10-325MG TABS TO WHITE ONES I AM NOT CRAZY BUT THE WHITE ONES ARE NOT REALLY HELPING AS WELL WHY IS THAT ## Hi jen, Your not the first to say that the white ones haven't been working as well. There have actually been several complaints to Watson (Actavis) regarding the lack of potency in their "supposedly equivalent" white tablets. They claim that the only difference lies in the removal of 'dye', however that doesn't necessarily explain why they don't work as well, since dye has no real impact on anything but its color. The true answer to their ineffectiveness is still a mystery until the manufacturer opens up and spills the beans. In the ...

What would be the milligram in pill form of a 150 homatropine /hydroco 1.5-5mg/5ml liq ml ## Hello, Steve! How are you? The pill form would be the same dosage, 5mgs of Hydrocodone and 1.5mgs of Homatropine. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic cough suppressant, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## How much of that same liquid would i take to equal a 10/325 hydrocodone? ## If the dosage is the same as stated by the original poster of 1.5/5 per 5ml then it would take 10ml and you would be getting 3mgs of the cough suppressant homatropine and 10mgs of hydrocodone.

WHITE OBLONG WITH THE LETTER V ON ONE SIDE AND THE NUMBERS 3536 ON THE OTHER ## Is there a possibility that it says 3596 instead of 3536? If so, then it would be hydrocodone 7.5mg and acetaminophen 750mg. This is a narcotic pain reliever by the name of Vicodin. It is highly addictive and can cause constipation, lightheadedness, marked drowsiness, euphoria. If the tablet really says 3536 then I am unable to find it at this time.

Wife has RA and has tried many different NSAIDs to relieve pain and reduce swelling. We don't want to take the standard RA Meds as the side effects are bad as well. Due to intense pain a few nights ago, I let her use some of my hydrocodone with acetaminophen and woke up feeling better than she had in months. What part of the drug is responsible for reducing the inflammation and then the pain to allow her to use her hands and walk. Are there other options we should look at for her pain/inflammation? Many of the NSAIDs haven't worked effectively for her. ## Hello, Todd! How are you and your wife? It could be that this is a good medication for her and she may need to ask her doctor about trying it. Was it the combination with Hydrocodone and Acetaminophen? It does take opiates to h...

I also ordered the yellow 10 mg hydrocodones from Pakistan. and the first thing I noticed is they made me tired. I laid down after work, before fixing dinner and didn't wake up for two hours. The same thing happened the next time (but only slept an hour). SO I cannot take these things during the day. Has anyone else experienced fatigue or overwhelming tiredness from taking the 10 mg hydrocodones from Pakistan>> ## When I first took Norco's I also experienced tiredness but once by body got used to (1 to 2 weeks) my body was adjusted and the Norco's worked really well. ## If you got them from Pakistan, how do you know what you are taking? If you really need a pain med, get a RX from your Dr. If you order meds from other countries, you are just asking for trouble. You c...

This is hydrocodone 7.5's .. My dr prescribed me these & that's exactly what they are. ## I'm sorry, but that is not correct. The tablets with the L544 marking are over the counter tablets which contain 650mgs of Acetaminophen. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness and headache. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I'm sorry to say that your doctor prescribed you a very costly OTC (Over The Counter) Acetaminophen 650mg tablet and passed it off as Hydrocodone; Acetaminophen is EXTREMELY cheap, compared to the Loritab/Hydrocodone. If your tablet is white, oblong and has L544 on one side and nothing on the other side, it IS AN OTC DRUG. Any pill that has a L on it is an OTC drug that can be purchased at any local Walmart, Walgreens or Ingles, for that matter....

Hydrocodone is too expensive. What can I use that is similar? ## That is the generic active ingredient, the name brands it's used in, if coupled with Acetaminophen would be Vicodin, Lortab and Norco and, if coupled with Ibuprofen it would be Vicoprofen. Learn more Vicodin details here. They usually aren't that expensive, but how many are you buying and in what dosage? What price did the pharmacy quote you?

I used this treatment for more than three years. For almost a year the color of this treatment was pink but it was very expensive. I have been changed to the same treatment, but cheaper medicine, the color is light blue. I went to another pharmacy and they told me the treatment colors vary (white). My question is, is there a difference between them and are any of them better than the other? ## Hydrocodone with Acetaminophen is a generic, one of the name brands for it would be Vicodin. And when something is available as a generic, it's usually made by several different companies and there are no rules on how the tablets have to look, or what color they have to be. That's entirely up to the whit and whim of the manufacturer. Learn more Vicodin details here. There is also no way to...
