Can I Switch From Tylenol 3 To Norco In Same Day
(Newest replies first)

Updated

I have a broken rear tooth and infection that is very painful. I will be seeing my dentist tomorrow, but he has prescribed me Tylenol 3, once every 3-4 hours. About a year ago for a similar problem he prescribed me Norco, which I still have a few left. I've taken 3 T3 today, but am wondering if it would be ok for my next dose, which will be in about 3 hours, could I switch to Norco? I've read that Norco is more powerful than the T3, and I'd obviously prefer to have as little pain as possible before I see my dentist.

Is it safe to take 325/5 hydrocodone and 300/30 Tylenol with coedine within 24hrs of each other?

Hello, Sam! How are you?

Yes, you should be able to do that, as long as your dentist or doctor approves.

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.

And please be careful not to exceed 3,000mgs of Acetaminophen in a day, or you risk overdose toxicity.

Is there anything else I can help with?
