Take Norco 5/325 One Pill 3 Times A Day As Needed # 60

I was prescribed Norco 5/325 1 pill 3 times a day as needed but the script was only for 60 pills. is that considered a month supply or 20 day supply?

Hello, Lori! How are you?

It would be best to check with your pharmacy, but it was most likely intended as a 30 day supply, since it's only to be taken as needed. Your doctor likely believes there are days when you won't need to take 3.

The FDA classifies this medication as being 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.

When do you have another appointment?

well I went to the dr yesterday and told him what was going on... he put me on soma 2 times a day and reduced my Norco to 2 times a day. I was very honest with the man and that's what he decided to do. the 3 times of taking Norco did not last very long nor was it very helpful. he even reduced my Norco to 2 times a day.before I was pregnant I was on Norco 7.5 every 4hrs and soma 4 times a day. I just don't understand his thinking . we went over my emg and I have nerve damage in my right leg, severe carpal tunnel and tendinitis. I guess live in pain for half the day and go from there. any suggestions would be helpful
