What Is Vicodin Made Of

doctor told me no more vicodin is beenng made ## Hell, Rob! How are you? There will still be medications available that contain Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone, they will just only contain 325mgs of Acetaminophen as a maximum per dose. The FDA requested that this change be made due to the risks of liver damage or failure that can occur with long-term use of high amounts, as well as the risk of overdose. Are there any other questions or concerns?

large white oval pill What's it for, and what are the side effects,please. Thank you ## Yes it's a generic Vicodin which contains 500 mg Acetaminophen + 5 mg Hydrocodone. Classified as a narcotic pain killer. For more information you can see the page Vicodin ## That is correct, thanks Abe! This medication does carry the risk of being habit forming and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and constipation. Learn more Vicodin details here. Additionally, by January of 2014, all of these combination prescription medications will be lowered to contain a maximum of 325mgs of the Acetaminophen per dose. The FDA has requested the change be made due to the risk of overdose toxicity and the possibility of liver damage that can be associated with long-term use. T...

pink with the #3600 on it oval shaped and a V on the other side. ## Yes pill with 3600 V is Acetaminophen 500 mg + Hydrocodone 10 mg ## A note that needs to be added here is that as of 2013, the FDA has made a request that all manufacturers lower the amount of Acetaminophen in these combination prescription products to no more than 325mgs per dose. There are major concerns about the dangers of liver damage and failure that can be associated with long-term use of high amounts of Acetaminophen, as well as the toxicity of overdose. Some manufacturers have already begun to implement the change and the rest are expected to have it completed by January of 2014. Thus, in the future, please double check and don't just assume that these tablets still contain 500mgs of Acetaminophen. Learn mo...

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>> ## Did you order them from off the internet?? If so you may have gotten some counterfeit medication,Pakistan and India is where most of the fake medicine comes from. I would contact the place were you got them from and tell them the problem you are having. I've never seen yellow hydrocodones.. I've seen yellow 10mg oxycodone. ## Are there any markings on them?...

I Took my prescription to a pharmacy to be filled and they said they couldn't fill it because that strength 10 325 doesn't exist anymore with Vicodin. They said the doctor should've made the prescription out for either 10/300 or Norco 10/325. I went to another chain pharmacy and they said there was no problem at all and they filled the prescription and said the law allowed them to generically fill the prescription with either Norco 10/325 or Vicodin 10/300 which ever they had available as long as it wasn't over 10/325. Who is right? ## Hello, Vann! How are you? Technically, both are right. The pharmacy has the right to refuse, since it was written like that, but they don't have to, because as the other pharmacy said, they can substitute. Thus, it would be up to the p...

White oval pill that says i9 on one side. ## Actually, no, these tablets marked with numbers followed by an I are made by Dr. Reddy's labs and contain Ibuprofen. In this case, the marking is I6, so it contains 600mgs. Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory used to treat pain and swelling. Read more: Is there anything else I can help you with?

what era the red specks in the vicodin 3604? does this mean they are time released? ## Hello there, Based on my research, this variety of Vicodin is not "extended release" and the red specks are just part of the pill's design. I can't find any info stating that they are made up of any specific ingredient. Learn More: Vicodin Details I hope this info helps!

when I was first prescribed vicodin they were Watson, 349...then later 352 and then 357 and now 363 and 368. What do those numbers mean. The ones I felt that worked best were the 349 and 357 Watson. I may be wrong in the numbers (years have gone by since ) but I think I am right. What is the STRONGEST vicodin made and does COLOR OF PILL have any reference to the quality of the med ? or the number on it. ie: is a 368 stronger then a 357. why are they called LORTAB. when I first heard them called that, instead of vicodin I thought maybe they were ( placebo) to make me THINK they were vicodin but not really. finally! speaking of PLACEBO can doctors and pharmacies give placebo without notifying the patient, can they legally do that? ## Hi, Frenchy! I did explain a lot of this in response to...

is Norco 10—325 mg stronger than vicodin 7.5-300 mg? My doctor changed my prescription to the Vicodin 7.5-300mg without telling me. Is he trying to get me off the Norco or what? I need my pain pills for my body aches, I have bone cancer on my spine, leg, and hip. ## Hi Sessy, Sorry to hear about your situation. My guess on the stronger medication would probably be the Norco 10/325. I tend to believe the 2.5mg difference in Hydrocodone can provide more pain relief than the 25mg difference in Acetaminophen; but that's just me and I'm not a regular user of the stuff. What are you thoughts on the Vicodin 7.5/300 after taking it? To be honest, I actually didn't know that they still made brand name Vicodin. It's been a while since anyone has mentioned it on here too, so ...

These pills look like they might be really old. They are huge not like other pain meda. So i just wanted to make sure they are not to old. ## I got a few of these to scared to take because I've never seen a Vicodin that looked like this and with all fake stuff going around but did u find out if this was real or not ## According to another discussion thread here, these are rumored to be generic vicodin with a dosage of 5/500mg. And seeing as it reportedly contains 500mgs of acetaminophen, I'm thinking this must've been made at least a few years ago before the FDA mandated a 325mg dosage limit. The good news however is that Harvard University studies have proved how pain meds such as this can last decades under proper storage conditions. The NY Times paper also posted a simila...

peach colored pill watson 346 on one side a slit on the other side ## This tablet contains 5mgs of Hydrocodone and 500mgs of Acetaminophen, the active ingredients in Lortab, Norco, Vicodin and/or Lorcet. It is a narcotic analgesic, so it may be habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. You can learn more Lorcet details here.

What is the difference between Darvocet N APAP 100-650 and Hydrocodone 500 mg? ## There is no Hydrocodone 500mg...it comes in 5mg 7.5mg or 10mg.. You people shouldn't mess with drugs cause obviously you have no clue...and there both weak as s*** by the way. ## Fentanyl is a very serious drug, and it is 10 to 20 x more powerful than morphine. It made my Uncle have a stroke& after he stoped taking it the last stroke he had killed him. Beware of this drug, only take it if it's your last resort. ## Darvocet contained the active ingredients Propoxyphene, and Acetaminophen. It is no longer available in the U.S., due to the fact that it's risks were deemed to outweigh any possible benefits it might provide, since it was such as mild opiate analgesic. Many people were found to b...

I simply want to know if I can take hydromorphine and hydrocordone together? And what would be the max dosage of each together before nausea would set in? ## Hello, Based on my research, there are no drug interactions found between Vicodin (Acetaminophen + Hydrocodone) and Dilaudid (Hydromorphone). This does not necessarily mean no interactions exist, but my sources state that every effort has been made to ensure that the information provided is accurate. Just take the medication as prescribed, and if nausea occurs just speak with your doctor and lower the dose. Medication effects everyone differently, so you won't really know how your body will react until you try it out. I hope this helps, please post back if you have any more questions!

yes, I can't find a list of Vicodin that shows number on pill and strength. don't need photos, just numbers & strength for all Vicodin. 5 to 10's. ## Hi greg, Please correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't brand name Vicodin's no longer being made? I was under the impression that it was replaced by Norco. At any rate, here are some of the imprints and dosages I came across online while searching for Norco (including generics): WATSON 913: 5/325 M365: 5/325 V 3604: 5/325 NORCO 729: 7.5/325 NORCO 539: 10/325 M367: 10/325 IP 110: 10/325 There may be a few others that I missed as well, since it's not very clear which ones are still on the market and which have been discontinued. On top of that I also realize they stopped making tablets with more than 325mgs of AP...

Why so hard for RX to get in white ? ## Not hard at all, they are available in white, yellow, orange, blue, and a whole rainbow of colors, it just depends which company made them. What you need to do, is go in and explain to the pharmacist you allergy problems. Most pharmacies simply carry the cheapest one they can find in their providers list of...

CAN EXTENSIVE USE CAUSE kIDNEY OR LIVER PROBLEMS ## Hydrocodone is available only in combination with other ingredients, and different combination products are prescribed for different uses. Some hydrocodone products are used to relieve moderate to severe pain. Other hydrocodone products are used to relieve cough. Hydrocodone is in a class of medications called opiate (narcotic) analgesics and in a class of medications called antitussives. Hydrocodone relieves pain by changing the way the brain and nervous system respond to pain. Hydrocodone relieves cough by decreasing activity in the part of the brain that causes coughing. Hydrocodone that is made with acetaminophen, such as Vicodin, can cause liver damage if taken in high doses or for a long period of time. Hydrocodone on it's ow...

Just a FYI for anyone out there that's looking to buy vicodin/percs from a US pharmacy. I just spent $280 for 30 vicodin from a so called pharmacy named ordermeds. They sent me 3 blister packs of unmarked pills, which made me so sick. Of course they don't say u are getting blister packs, they are a fake/scam!! ## Hey frustrated, sorry to hear about your experience with ordermeds... But if you're going that route without a valid script, the nature of it is illegal, meaning that they aren't necessarily obligated as a business to stand by their word. I wouldn't recommend trusting any discreet web-based pharmacies for that reason, unless they are verified to be VIPPS-accredited by The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP).
