Hello, Michael! How are you? I'm very sorry that you're in pain.

What are the markings on the new one? With this additional information, I can research it for you to see if I can discover what's going on.

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.

PM started me on 7/10 from 4 Norco a day to 20 mg Zohydro every 12 hours. I am experiencing headaches on a daily basis. Back pain & nausea, vomiting. It's not working I am taking Tylenol for breakthrough but it's not cutting it. I don't know what to do. Have an appt. on Thursday with PM Dr. To see if he can switch me back to immediate pain relief.

Christina, you likely need something stronger for breakthrough pain, such as Norco or Percocet.

How did your doctor's appointment go?
