Take it as your MD says, but you can have it every 4 hours. The MD can increase the amount of hydrocodone in it. It's the acetaminophen they worry about. There is also a 10-300 out which is less acetaminophen and more pain relief if you REALLY need it. Most MDs will not Rx this now. You have to go to a pain specialist who will give you what you really need. They work very differently than regular MDs do. If this is a chronic problem, you will have to find a pain specialist and they will know every pill you take and at what time and if you run short, so sorry. Too bad!! Too many people on the street OD'ing on acetaminophen related drugs. Keep it out of sight and never share with another.

Hello, Sky! How are you?

It should be taken as prescribed by your doctor. Generally, no more than every 6 hours, so 4 a day, but many doctors prefer to prescribe it to be taken every 8 hours, for 3 times a day.

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.

Is there anything else I can help with?
