It really isn't even that you can't drive while taking it, it's just that you have to be very careful and gauge how badly it affects you, if the medication makes you severely dizzy, drowsy and slows your reaction times, then you should stay away from driving.

However, if it doesn't affect you that badly, then there is no need to completely avoid driving, just be careful when you do.

Thus, if you feel okay and aren't feeling dizzy or drowsy, you should be able to drive just fine.

Learn more Vicodin details here.

Of course, none of this applies if, for some reason, your doctor told you not to drive while you were taking it, I was just covering typical use scenario.

Are there any other questions?

It depends on how the medication affects you. I know I would be able to drive but I would be extra alert. If you have used the medication for awhile or if you are not sensitive to the side effects. Everyone is different. Vicodin does not make me sleepy or dizzy. It may slow reaction time but I am not aware of it. It actually makes me feel more awake but most people do not have this reaction.
