I took 8 10 mg hyocodone in 36 hr time period. In two days will half that amount show up on a urine lab test or more than half that amount? ## Will 5 norcos show up 72 hrs after i took them in a urine test ## Urine analysis does not show the amount used; however, the test will show a positive result more rapidly. ## I am prescribed norco for arthritis, I am wondering what does it show up as on a saliva test? Some people say norco and herion will show up the same on a saliva test. I have never used herion, so is this true or false? Thank you.

Hello, I know someone who is prescribed Hydrocodone-- 10mg-325 acetaminophen mg and Morphine-15mg. This person said on a "good day" they take 60mg of hydrocodone which would be 1950 mg acetaminophen as well as the 30 mg of morphine a day- again on a good day. I do not know much about all of this- so my question is- how dangerous is this? Thanks for all your help! ## It being dangerous, or not, depends on the person and their tolerance to opiates. If they have been taking them for awhile and their doctor has prescribed them this way, things are most likely fine. The biggest issue with the medications and amounts you've mentioned would actually be due to the Acetaminophen. The FDA warns that you should not exceed 1,000mgs of it per any 8 hour time period, and no more than 3,00...

Is hydrocodone acetaminophen 5 325 a anti inflammatory? If so, I need to skip it for a week for a upcoming surgery. ## Hello, John! How are you? No, the FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. However, you should check with your doctor to make sure it is safe for you to continue taking it before surgery. Is there anything else I can help with? ## My Dr just told me I could continue Norco 7.5/325 till surgery but not celebex 200 for five days.

Is it safe to take 2 10mg hydrocodones every 3 hours? I am 24 and I am scheduled to have a total hip replacement on the 18th. For the past two days I have been taking 2 hydrocodones, 1 gabapentin, and 1 robaxin every 3-4 hours to keep my pain under control so I don't end up in the er like I did on Wednesday. So my question is, is it safe to be taking all of these every 3-4 hours? ## Hello, Kat! How are you doing? I am very sorry that you're in so much pain. If you're taking Norco/Vicodin that also has Acetaminophen in it, then it is dangerous to take that many in a 24 hour period. You can't exceed 3,000mgs of Acetaminophen per day. Taking more than that risks an overdose, which could be fatal. It is really best to not take more than prescribed. You may want to contact yo...

Hi, I was prescribed hydrocodone 5-325 for stomach pain, when I was seen in the emergency room for gastritis, but I don't understand why, if one of the side effects is nausea. I also have had problems eating and bleeding from my rectum. ## Hello, Kelly! How are you? That is a possible side effect, as listed by the FDA, not everyone experiences nausea. It varies from person to person. You may also experience dizziness, headache, constipation and dry mouth. I've also had gastritis and was prescribed Oxycodone for awhile, it worked very well to help relieve the pain. Have you tried taking it, yet? ## I have severe gastritis and a lot of pain in my leg can I take hydrocodone for the pain? ## I currently take the hydrocodone 5/325 for my Crohn's and I am looking for an alternativ...

I would like to know what this pill is and what it's used for? My research said it was hydrocodone. Is that true? The number was almost scratched all the way off. It's bigger than a norco but looks the same besides that. I really could use your help. Thanks.

Foot surgery, took one pill 5/325 rapid pulse, blurry vision small headache. Only lasted for about half hour. ## Hello, Kate! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem you had. Which medication are you asking about? There are several available in that dosage. Generally, if it isn't time released, you can cut or break it in half, but you can't do so with something that is time released, because that creates the risk of your getting too much of the active ingredients at once. 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. ## M365 is on the all white oblong pill (Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen) 5-325 from my L4-L5 back surgery. I just want to cut it in half to wea...

I have had these white Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen 10-500 T. These are not as strong as the pinkor blue. A lot of powder on them. Still have pain while taking them. When one pill works better for some than others. I Cain 't understand that if that name brand pill would fix the problem at one a day but we have to take the generic taking more and still feeling the pain. Money is as so the root of all evil. Without this money people like me and a whole lot more feel this way to. Will never get well. The medicine does make you better. The generic will help along the way but no you won't get well. These are just my feelings I 'm not by know means trying to get anyone to question their Dr.. ## @Jeremy, I may be able to help shed some light on why a different brand of the same exact ...

I take Norco 10/325mg with a prescription. I ran out Saturday morning and my appt. is Wednesday. They do a regular urine test to make sure u are taking them.

I had seen six doctors that all misdiagnosed my condition and finally one got it right but the insurance company wouldn't pay for any type of treatment other than pain management, so I have been taking different types of medication for a few years now for two bulging discs, degenerate disc disease, and sciatica. Early on I dealt with constipation from the dosage of morphine that I was prescribed, so for the past year I have been taking three 30 Mg of morphine sulfate ER, eight 10/325 Mg Norco, and eight 100 Mg of Gabapentin per day. Unfortunately my body tolerance to the current dosage isn't working like it once did. My approach has been to decrease the amount of medication for two months then go back to my regular dosage, but the last few attempts hasn't helped make the med...

What is difference between yellow pill that says watson on one side and 853 on other compared to yellow pill that has a v on one side and 3601 on other? ## There is no difference in the active ingredients, they are just manufactured by different companies They both contain 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen, generics for Vicodin, this is a narcotic pain reliever. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. You can read more here: Did you have any other questions? ## There are many kinds of vicodin, I believe the best would be norco. The best I think is an off yellow color that reads Watson 853. Other very good ones are Watson 385 which are 7.5 hydrocodone 500 acetonenophen, m360 7.5/700, m358 7.5/500, v3601 10/325, m367 10/325 just to n...

So i'm prescribed hydrocodone 5/325. My husband's prescribed 7.5/325. I had the flu really bad and I took 2 of his pills on accident. I took a UA about 2 or 3 hrs later. Every time I test It comes back that I've taken morphine because my body breaks it down that way. But will the two I took come up showing that I took different pills? ## It may come up with you having more in your system that you're suppose to. If you took two 7,5 mg, it could show up as you having 15 mgs in you system instead of the 5 mg that you're prescribed. ## And it is completely normal normal for it to come up as Morphine on some tests, since they metabolites it is broken down into are very similar. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side e...

I take Hydrocodone 10-325 on a daily basis (4 a day). How long will it stay in my system? ## I took 3 yesterday .will it be out of my. By thursday ## The FDA lists it's as taking about 19 to 22.8 hours, according to their half-life listings. It is also warned that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.

Is it like the yellow pill with the cursive V on it (10/325)? That's what I use to get but today I got this. What's the difference? ## They have just been manufactured by different companies, which is common with generics. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. How are you doing taking them? Have you experienced anything unusual? ## CVS just refilled my hydrocodone WITH CARACO/SUN PH. I noticed my insurance didn’t pay a penney as they use to pay a few dollars on my prescription when I had mfr..Mallinckrodt. All about big profits for CVS. Now I feel sick.

I couldn't take my back discomfort while trying to have an MRI. My doctor prescribed this for me to take during my next appointment. My concern is that the med will take the discomfort away for the duration of the MRI which is 45 minutes and can't be stopped. Would I dare take 2? ## You should not take more than your doctor has instructed, one tablet should last about 4 to 6 hours for most people. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. Are you on any other medications? Sometimes a sedative also helps with such problems.

Is there anything out there that can be used that could be similar too lortab/hydrcodone ## Hello, Sharon! How are you? There are actually quite a few other options available, including other narcotic alone, or others that are also combined with Acetaminophen. What specific problem do you have with the Lortab?
