Hydrocodone/apap 7.5-500mg/15ml
(Newest replies first)

My doctor prescribed the liquid hydrocodone/APA 7.5-500mg/15ml to me for pain. The pharmacy label says to take 1 TEASPOON every 6 hours. This seems unusual given that this dosage seems to be most often given in 15ml doses as opposed to the 5ml in a teaspoon. I took it as the label recommended and honestly can't tell a bit of difference. Is it possible that the pharmacy mislabeled? Based on what I have read, I should be safe to 15ml at a time, right? I sure would like to take the full dose tonight so I can finally get some rest.

What does the pharmacy list for the dosing amounts in the 5ml? Did you check to see if they substituted?

They sometimes do that if they don't have the dosing form that your doctor prescribed in stock.

Have you called the pharmacy to ask?

If they just mistyped the amount you're supposed to take at a dose, then it would be okay to change to what your doctor prescribed, however, you need to be certain about that, before doing so.

Taking too much of this medication, since it is a narcotic, can be dangerous.

You may also experience side effects, such as: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and dry mouth.
