Taking Xanax After Hydrocodone (Top voted first)

I was wondering if someone could tell me how long I should wait to take a 1 mg xanax after taking a 10 mg hydrocodone at around 11 am this morning?

There's no specific time that you have to wait, if they've both been prescribed for you.

However, taking them together could result in your experiencing more severe side effects than usual, which the FDA lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and sedation.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Interesting warning box at the Pfizer Xanax site:

WARNING: RISKS FROM CONCOMITANT USE WITH OPIOIDS
Concomitant use of benzodiazepines and opioids may result in profound sedation,
respiratory depression, coma, and death [see Warnings, Drug Interactions].
Reserve concomitant prescribing of these drugs for use in patients for whom
alternative treatment options are inadequate.
Limit dosages and durations to the minimum required.
Follow patients for signs and symptoms of respiratory depression and sedation.
