I DON'T LIKE TAKING PAIN MEDICINES AND I WANT TO KNOW IF THESE TWO ARE THE SAME OR DIFFERENT. FOR IN MY SEARCHING, THEY DON'T SEEM TO BE THE SAME, BUT DIFFERENT.SHOULD I RETURN THESE AND REQUEST THE TALACEN FOR THESE SEEM TO BE STRONGER.

Hello, Cynthia! How are you?

Yes, they are different medications, though both are narcotics, but the Norco contains Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone.

Learn more Norco 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.

However, the pharmacist couldn't have switched it, without your doctor's approval, so you should contact your doctor about the issue.

Are there any other questions or concerns?
