I Believe My Vicodin Was Switched To Something Else

Updated

I think someone switched my Vicodin with something else. Is there anything that looks like I would be taking a Vicodin and wouldn't notice? I believe this happened because when I was taking the Vicodin it relieved my pain to be at least bearable. Now it just seems to not work at all.

Yes that could be... do u 1st have anyone else living with you that could have done this? Look on the prescription pain medication that you were prescribed and there should be numbers or a letter & numbers following it engraved on the pill. Type that into Google or whatever you have for your Internet provider is & “ASK” what medication those letter/numbers are referring to? It should tell you and most “good” selections should also provide you with at least one picture of that medication, that goes to that engravement you have typed in.

Good Luck & IF you do think someone who lives with you (sibling or children) have been making these substitutions in your medication bottle... Either buy a good Lockable Safe to keep your medications in or hide them where no one else can have access to your medications! Keep an eye on your Narcotic Pain Medicines all the time! People DO steal them, unfortunately!

Are there any markings on the tablets? Can you please post back and clarify, I need this information in order to answer your question.

The current FDA laws require all manufactured tablets and capsule that are available by prescription in the U.S. to have unique imprints to enable their identification, in case of emergency. These imprints are logged in a database, so the can be identified.

The FDA warns that Vicodin carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth.
