My doctor changed my medication from Lortab 7.5 500 to Norco 7.5 325, but now i'm super sleepy for about 2 hours now. Any answers ?

It might be a slight withdrawal effect, due to the lower amount of Acetaminophen, because it potentiates the Hydrocodone. It usually takes about a week or so, for your body to adjust.

However, if it continues past that, or worsens, you should consult your doctor.

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.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Its been about 1 1/2 months, but I just found out. The lower the apap the higher Hydrocodone, that's what's make me sleepy now. If you take 1 tylenol with it - it reduces the Hydrocodone intake then the sleepiness stops. It must dilute the Hydro.

Thanks...your partly correct. It increases the Hydro, so I get sleepy. I talk to a Dr. That helps with chemical dependency. And the reduction of the Apap increases the Hydro,so I took 1 tylenol with it and I didn't get sleepy. Finally have a life back. Instead of in bed most of the day
