Norco Forums (Page 13)

Are they just like norco's? ## Hi, Mustie! How are you? Yes, these tablets contain 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen, the active ingredients in Norco. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it may be habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Learn more Norco details here. Is there anything else I can help with? ## my advice to anyone taking hydrocodone is to also ask your doctor for a script of ultram. I have taken these two for over a year. Although I have only found one generic that is as effective(white watsons). Even with them the ultram makes the pain relief last longer. I get the 10's and I split them in half and take a whole 10 ultram. I get 100 hydrocodone and 90 ultram. I have a herniated disc...

Will my levels be off? ## I am drug tested weekly took extra Percocet the day before a mouth swab test will this show high levels? ## I took one hydrocodone 10 ml 14 hours before a saliva pre employment drug test. Will I fail the test? I am not a habitual user had not had anything else. ## Did you pass?!?!?!? I need to know im freaking out. You said 14 hrs before right? I took one 24 hrs before.

ok so i have a question on the M367 pills. First, I have taken Vicodin about two times in the past. First time i broke my left ankle 3 years ago and got a prescription for the 5mg/(not sure on the acetaminophen) Vicodin at qty 20 pills. Then one year ago I had two wisdom teeth pulled and got a prescription for 5mg Vicodin like 15 pills. I say that to point out the fact that i dont think i have any built up tolerance.. I dont take any regular medicine, then or now.When i took the Vicodin, both times, the pain was gone in 20-30 minutes and i was full of energy ( one pill a day) .. SO to my question... now i have a herniated disc pushing on a nerve root and some stenosis clamping down on a different nerve root.. all verified through MRI.... I got to the pain management Doc and he gives me ...

I have had 4 back surgeries, 1 neck surgery, 1 rt knee surgery, and 1 rt shoulder surgery. I've been on many pain meds but now what works for me is 10/325 norco. I dont want anything stronger. I'm sure im addicted but cant function; without them i need that little relief to maintain my sanity. I have been labeled a druggie. What is really going on here when we put animals in pain to sleep and let humans suffer? Just saying. ## Who labeled you a druggie and why? What type of doctor have you been seeing?

I am allergic to red dye 40 and I was prescribed Norco 5-325 for the pain after gall bladder surgery. These are white with red specks in them. Can you tell me if the red specks have red dye 40 in it? ## Hello, Gloria! How are you? What are the markings on the tablets in question? I'm sorry, but I need this information in order to correctly identify the tablets and make sure to provide you with the correct information on the ingredients. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. Can you please post back and clarify? Thank you!

Has anyone experienced a total change in the effect of these after having used them with no problems for quite some time? These are completely different. I need to know if this is permanent before I get another prescription. It was the only one I could take and now I can't. Also, is anyone currently using non-generic Norco? Does it work well? Thank you. ## Hello, Evie! How are you? What seems to have changed with them? You didn't list the markings on them, so I can't research them for you to double check, though I gladly will, if you post back with this additional information. 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.

I am stopping Norco and starting morphine same milligram dosage and just questioning if there will be any withdrawals since I am just switching meds there will always be meds on board no time. Without however because of the switch from an opioid to an opiate will there be any withdrawals? ## What are the relevant dosages? And opioid and an opiate are just two words for the same thing. The FDA warns that these medications carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.

My husband had cervical neck fusion 10 months ago. He was given 7.5/325 Norco with no side effects. Two weeks ago he had lumbar back fusion and they gave him 10/325 for the pain. These seem to get him high plus dry mouth, urine retention, and insomnia. What's up? He is very frustrated because he has to have them for pain. We don't understand why the onset of side effects with the higher dosage. Is this common? ## Yes, it is very normal for someone to experience more side effects, when they take a higher dosage of any given medication. The FDA warns that Norco carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. How is he doing now? Has there been any change?

please send me details to this question ## No the 10/325 are stronger than the 5/325. ## I was wondering if this was even a serious question or not, since 10 is obviously a higher number than 5... Though I have to ask the original poster, did you mean "10" of some other medication? I.e. - 10mg Zohydro (Hydrocodone extended release) which doesn't have Acetaminophen? You asked for details to your question but didn't post much detail yourself... So if you could please post back with any additional information or feedback that would be most helpful. Thanks! ## How many 5-325 hydrocodon does it take to equal a 10-325 hydrocodon ## It takes two of the 5/325 to equal one 10/325 of hydrocodone.

I am starting this thread so we may be able to aid each other when we have problems filling our prescriptions in Metro Detroit area. If you'd like to just make it all of Michigan that would be fine too since some people may travel out of the Metro Area. I haven't been able to fill my script for a week now and I have hit every pharmacy imaginable. If I am successful at filling my script, I will list the pharmacy that was able to fill it afterwards. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Let's ban together and make this stressful and unfortunate situation easier for those of us who have had to wrongfully suffer through the negligence of the med chain. We shouldn't have to suffer because of those whom abuse the system and perform criminal activities when it comes to the very...

What is the difference in the yellow Norco 10-325mg and the white Norco 10-325mg? ## Hello, Fred! How are you? They are just manufactured by different companies, which is common with generic medications. 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? ## I've used the yellow ones with a check mark on them for years and they work good. Years ago I use yellow Watson's and they worked really good and fast. I had the white Watson's this year and they work fast but don't seem to last as long. Just my opinion, stick with the yellow ones. ## I only have 2 pharmacies I can go to with my insurance. The Watson brand works ...

I have tested positive for tramadol twice, and I do not take it. I take morphine and norco. Recently I heard the new norco was causing people to test positive for tramadol. Any info would help. My doctor is dropping me as a patient and labeling me a liar. Please help. ## I've never taken tramadol either & have tested positive for it 2x @ my pain management Dr's office too. The norco that I am prescribed are weak now, don't work for my severe pain. I think the drug manufacturers are putting tramadol in the generic norco & the FDA makes them do it. This would explain why my pain Dr. did not question why my tests came up positive for the tramadol. ## I took one Watson 853 the night prior and took a drug test like 18 hours later will I fail a drug test ? ## Ok i know wat...

I definitely think the white v 36 09 is less effective...much less effective!!! I've taken Norco for many, many years for chronic back pain. I have degenerative disc disease and arthritis. I have multiple spinal fusions and my shoulders are shot from multiple rotator cuff repairs. I have gotten the white ones for the past two months. I have NEVER taken more than prescribed in the past but I get literally NO relief from the white ones! It feels like a placebo to me and I am beyond frustrated!! I can't take NSAIDS and I go to a pain Dr so I can't take any other type of narcotic and I am miserable!! Please go back to the Yellow v 36 01. They are NOT the same!!! Why would the white be cheaper for Wal-Mart if they are identical? Why would a manufacturer make the same medication w...

I take Norco 5/325 daily for pain.(Scoliosis) I am having a last minute breast augmentation tomorrow & my Dr. prescribed me Percocet 5/325 for the pain. Can I alternate my meds every few hours? I'm sure it should be fine, but just checking. Don't wanna freak either of my doctors out by asking them! ## They are both very potent narcotic analgesics, neither treats any specific condition, just general pain, so you really don't need to take them both, at the same time, only one is necessary. If the surgeon wants you to take the Percocet, then that's most likely the one you should use and it should help with both the surgical and scoliotic pain. You can learn more Percocet details here. Are there any other questions I can help with? ## You should ask your Dr. before takin...

My daughter is 12 and her weight is 160lbs and she had surgery and they gave her 360oz of hydrocodone - acetaminophen 7.5-325mg/15mL and she takes 10mL every 4 hours. How long should this bottle of meds last? ## Hi Kayla - Can you please double check the total size of the bottle? 360 oz doesn't seem possible for a prescription since that equals over 10,000 ml. Do you mean to say 360 ml? ## I'm going to assume for a moment that the OP meant 36 oz of liquid since that equals about 1065 ml. That being the case, taking a dose every 4 hours equals 6 doses per day. BUT ... I will also assume only 5 doses per day since the patient is probably sleeping longer than 4 hours, and taking 5 doses per day at 4 hour intervals equals 16 hours of wake time. So ... 50 ml per day of liquid. 1065 m...

If you use Norco for a few years to manage pain can you develop Cirrhosis of the liver or go into acute liver failure because of the Tylenol that it contains. I'm told excessive amounts of Tylenol and Tylenol in general are not good for your liver. I have been diagnosed with stage 4 Cirrhosis- as I'm told-more than likely due to Norco. Could this be true? ## Cirrhosis is not usually caused from Acetaminophen, it's most common causes are alcohol abuse, Hepatitis, non-alcoholic steatoheptatis, and hemochromatosis, according to NIH articles. Acetaminophen can cause harm to the liver, and may cause liver failure in those that take high doses, for a long period of time, though. Do you frequently drink alcoholic beverages?

Fake Norco 7.5mg, as well as Klonopin 1-2mg orange pills in Bluffton, Indiana. I am 99% positive these pills have either been substituted or purposely sold bad, an old batch, etc.. I am on a low amount, 2 a day for having acutely infected sinus perforations from teeth pulled as well as 8 additional teeth yet to be pulled, scared straight. I know it's illegal to share pills, but I traded one equal pill for another and always had the same reaction - My pills did not work, but others did. What do I do? I live in a small town where corruption is the norm. How do you prove this so they can't harm people and steal their and the insurance companies money? Win against a giant corrupted company? I was tested by my insurance company and it showed no Norco, which I was taking from Walmart....
