What Is The Overdose Amount Hydrocodone 5 500

What pharmacy carries the blue hydros 10/500 in El paso, Tx westside? ## If you're referring to the blue ones that are manufactured by Watson with the marking WATSON 540 on them, you aren't going to find them anymore. You'll need to be looking for them in white, since Watson has removed the dye. Learn more Norco details here. Additionally, they will all soon be changed to only contain a maximum of 325mgs of Acetaminophen, due to concerns raised by the FDA, because of the risk of liver damage associated with long-term use and the toxicity of overdose. Thus, all manufacturers are expected to change their formulations to the lower amount no later than January of 2014. Do you remember who the manufacturer was? ## Until then Mr.Verwon where can I get them here? I am already going...

I have been taking 10/500mg hydrocodone for 7yrs and have been told by a lot of people that they will only have 10/325mg hydrocodone on the market in 2014 is that true? ## Hello, Shantrell! How are you? Yes, it is true. Due to the risk of liver damage or failure that can be associated with long-term use of high amounts, as well as the risk of overdose, the FDA requested that all combination prescription products that contain Acetaminophen be lowered to contain no more than 325mgs per dose. Some companies have already begun to make the change and remove products from the market that contain the higher amounts of Acetaminophen and the rest will have it completed in a just a few weeks, by the start of 2014. Is there anything else I can help with? ## what is a good replacement hydrocodone 1...

Is Hydrocodone M357 about half the strength as a 750/500? ## Hello, Jordan! How are you? The tablet with the M 357 marking contains 5mgs of Hydrocodone and 500mgs of Acetaminophen, so it's got a little less of the narcotic, but is still stronger than half. This is 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. Learn more Vicodin details here. The ones with the higher amounts of Acetaminophen will no longer be available in a few weeks, to mitigate the risk of liver damage or failure that can be associated with long-term use of high amounts, as well as the risk of overdose, all of these combination prescription medications are being lowered to contain no more than 325mgs o...

I take Qualitest 10/500 pink hydrocodone. My pharmacy has told me that Qualitest will no longer be making this. I have tried other 10/500 pills to no avail. Qualitest is the only manufacturer that works on my pain . Does Qualitest offer another size ? ## Hello, Ted! How are you doing? Actually, after the first of the year (2014), none of the manufacturers will be making this dosage, anymore. Due to the risks of liver damage or failure that can occur with long-term use of high amounts of Acetaminophen, as well as the overdose fatalities that have occurred with these medications, the FDA has requested that all combination prescription products be lowered to contain no more than 325mgs of Acetaminophen, per dose.

What would be the reults of ingeting 40 hydroco/apap 7.5-500tab at one time? ## Ignoring the huge amount of a very potent narcotic that the person would be taking, the amount of Acetaminophen ingested would be fatal. ## white round pill with C above score and CT below the score. Blank on other side. What is it? ## These tablets have the #'s M357, M358, and M359 on them. Are these in fact hydroco/apap? ## M357 contains 500mgs of Acetaminophen and 5mgs of Hydrocodone. M358 contains 500mgs of Acetaminophen and 7.5mgs of Hydrocodone. M359 contains 650mgs of Acetaminophen and 7.5mgs of Hydrocodone. So, yes, they are all generics for Lortab, just different dosages. Some of the most common side effects include: nausea, dry mouth, constipation and drowsiness. ## If u ingest 40 7.5 lortab u ...

my pain is too much to handle. the doctor cannot give me more than 30 tablets of hydrocodone/acetaminophen at a time. So I need to know how many Tylenol to take to help me. ## Hi Nikki, To my understanding, no amount of tylenol (acetaminophen) is equivalent to the effects of Hydrocodone, before experiencing what would be considered an overdose of acetaminophen - which can be extremely toxic to the liver. It sounds like your best bet would probably be to ask your doctor for a stronger pain medication (that you can take less of) or opt for a safer, more natural alternative that can be used as an adjunctive therapy to what you already take. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Hydrocodone Details I hope this helps!

Which is stronger, Lortab 10\5 or Endocet 10\650 and how many Lortabs would it take to equal one Endocet? ## The only difference in the two medications you posted is in the amount of Acetaminophen. The Lortab 10/500 contains 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 500mgs of Acetaminophen. The Endocet 10/650 contains 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 650mgs of Acetaminophen. So, in the narcotic pain reliever amount, they are the same. Since these have the highest amount available of the Hydrocodone in them, coupled with the Acetaminophen, it is very important not to try and double up on them, due to the danger of overdose and the Acetaminophen toxicity. Has your doctor switched you from on to the other?

Would taking 14 hydrocodone 5/500 tablets cause an overdose? ## In this case, the Acetaminophen is much more dangerous than the Hydrocodone and the answer is yes. Acetaminophen is toxic in amounts over 4 grams in 24 hours and at this dosage, that would be only 8 tablets. 14 tablets would equal 7grams of it. Even if it does not result in a fatal overdose, the use of such an amount can result in severe damage to various body organs, such as the stomach, liver and kidneys. Are there any questions or comments? ## Hey why would you want to kill yourself! Life can be precious! Maybe you need the right person to talk to.
