Hydrocodone Forums (Page 77)

I have been taking hydrocodone/APAP 10/650. Recently my pharmacy changed the pill to a blue with M361 on side. I haven't gotten relief from pain with one pill as prescribe instead I'm up to one and have or two to control pain. What is the difference? I'm still in pain after two pills sometimes. ## Hello, Seafarr! How are you? I'm very sorry that you're having this problem. There can be some slight fluctuations from one generic to another. How long have you been taking the new one? Your body should adjust after a week or so, but that's not really going to happen if you keep doubling up. That's also not safe to do with these high amounts of Acetaminophen. Have you consulted your doctor? These ones with the higher amounts of Acetaminophen in them are being remov...

Dose this medication come in Watson Bramd ? 5-325 ## Hello, Blueberries! How are you? Watson is a manufacturer, not a brand. But they do manufacture the one sold under the brand name Norco in this dosage. Is there anything else I can help with?

My son was prescribed hydro-apap 7.5/500 it says give 1.5 mg (3ml) for pain what's that equal in pill form?? ## Hello, Sarah! How is your son doing? You really should stick with the liquid here to be able to give a precise dose and not risk overdosing. Trying to cut a tablet to get the law of a dose would be far too risky. Is there anything else I can help with?

A tannish speckled oblong pill scored on one side and a capital cursive M on the other. From the Phillippines. Supposed to be hydrocodone, but I can't find any site that shows that is indeed what it is. ## Hello, Amy! How are you? Unfortunately, the logging of pill imprints is only required by the U.S. and Canada, so it will likely be difficult to determine what this tablet contains. Most other countries just don't regulate their medication as strictly. I'll keep looking and post back, when I have information for you. Does anyone else recognize this tablet?

Hi everyone. To the point - I have arthritis due to many years of rough living (motorcycle accident -2- and bull riding) and as such have had multiple broken bones. Long story short, I've been on Norcos for roughly 6 years and am worried about the constant daily intake of Acetaminophen and what it may potentially be doing to my liver. My current dose is 1-Norco when I wake / 1 or 2 at lunch / then another 1 or 2 again at bedtime. I've been prescribed Oxycontin but could not get along with it at all - it made me incredibly tired and itchy. So, would a drug such as Opana be a viable option for someone like me? My Md assures me I'm okay at my current level of acetaminophen but I worry... Does anyone have any experience with a switch such as the one I propose? ## Yes, after bein...

Why did they stop making 7.5 loritab ## Hello, Ronnie! How are you? It seems there are many misunderstandings about this occurring, but I'm happy to clear this up for you. The medications with the various doses of Hydrocodone, such as 5mg, 7.5mg and 10mg are still available, it is just the ones with the higher amounts of Acetaminophen in them that are no longer being manufactured. From now on they will all only contain a maximum of 325mgs of Acetaminophen per dose. 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. Learn more Norco details here. Thus, for you to continue taking it, your doctor has to prescribe a different one with the lower amount of Acetaminophen, I...

what is the difference between M365 and M367 on hydrocodone APAP tablets ? ## Hello, DD! How are you? The tablets with the M365 marking only contain 5mgs of the Hydrocodone, while the ones with the M367 marking contain 10mgs of it. However, both contain 325mgs of Acetaminophen. 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. Learn more Vicodin details here. Is there anything else I can help with?

why is this being a discontinued medicine ## The only thing that is changing is the amount of Acetaminophen. It is being reduced to 325 mg. The FDA has asked all of the manufacturers of Acetaminophen combination medications to reduce it. The changes will go into effect in Jan 2014.

Is Hydrocodone M357 about half the strength as a 750/500? ## Hello, Jordan! How are you? The tablet with the M 357 marking contains 5mgs of Hydrocodone and 500mgs of Acetaminophen, so it's got a little less of the narcotic, but is still stronger than half. 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. Learn more Vicodin details here. The ones with the higher amounts of Acetaminophen will no longer be available in a few weeks, to mitigate the risk of liver damage or failure that can be associated with long-term use of high amounts, as well as the risk of overdose, all of these combination prescription medications are being lowered to contain no more than 325mgs o...

I didn't find any interactions listed between these medications, but you should always double check such information with your doctor or pharmacist. Learn more Vicodin details here. 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.

I HAVE USED THIS MEDICATION FOR SEVERE PAIN. AS OF 2014 THEY WILL NO LONGER COVER THIS DRUG. WHAT WOULD WOULD BE THE SAME AS THIS DRUG THAT THEY MAY COVER? GENERIC IF POSSIBLE. ## Hello, Joyce! How are you? Who will no longer cover it, your insurance company? If so, you may want to ask them what they will cover, or ask your pharmacist. Without knowing your insurance carrier, everyone else can really only make random guesses.

Can you die from taking just one hydrocodone 10-650 tablet? ## Hello, Jayallen! How are you? It's very doubtful, but there are a couple of possible scenarios where that could happen…. The first would be if someone were severely allergic to it, in that case just a tiny amount of the allergen could cause anaphylactic shock that may result in death. And the second would be if it were mixed with some other medication(s) that it causes dangerous interactions with. But both scenarios are extremely rare and unlikely. Is there anything else I can help with?

I have a fat white tablet, could it be a Hydrocodone pill? ## Afriend gave me a pain pill .I hurt my knee. She told me it was vicodin.Im not sure.It is oblong and has the letter and numberL484 on one side.Can you tell me what this pill is? ## I found a long oblong white pill with the word bayer on it. I think it may be hydrocodone Can you tell me what it is? ## L 484 THIS IS NOT VICODIN NOR ANY TYPE OF NARCOTIC Pills marked with the L are manufactured by LNK International, they are over the counter products, that is all they make, they are sold by various stores as their store brands or generics. This one is Acetaminophen 500mgs, a generic or store brand of Extra Strength Tylenol. ## Bayer If the only marking on it is the word Bayer, then that one is nothing more than Acetaminophen 325m...

WHAT IS THE T FOR ON THE WHITE HYDROCODONE ACETAMINOPHEN 10-325 BY WATSON THIS IS 10-325 T I RECENTLY CHANGED FROM YELLOW 10-325MG TABS TO WHITE ONES I AM NOT CRAZY BUT THE WHITE ONES ARE NOT REALLY HELPING AS WELL WHY IS THAT ## Hi jen, Your not the first to say that the white ones haven't been working as well. There have actually been several complaints to Watson (Actavis) regarding the lack of potency in their "supposedly equivalent" white tablets. They claim that the only difference lies in the removal of 'dye', however that doesn't necessarily explain why they don't work as well, since dye has no real impact on anything but its color. The true answer to their ineffectiveness is still a mystery until the manufacturer opens up and spills the beans. In the ...

Hi, I am prescribed lortab for chronic pain due having 40% of my body burned last summer. My entire chest and neck is grafted skin and it didn't heal right. I am supposed to take one pill every 8 hours, but after 4 or 5 hours I am back in pain. 2 weeks ago I hurt my elbow in a fall, it was swollen and painful so I ended up taking more of my medicine than prescribed. I go back to the pain clinic in 4 days and I only have 2 pills left. When should I take these to make sure I test positive for lortab? ## Hi Dee Dee..unfortunately i don't have the answer for you but i wanted to jump in here since no one has replied bcz i have a similar problem.
