The tablet in the original post, with the Advanced Pharmaceutical logo and 014 on it is an over the counter product that contains 500mgs of Acetaminophen, it's a generic or store brand of extra strength Tylenol.

This medication may be toxic, if you take too much in 24 hours, so please do not exceed the recommended dosing instructions.
The tablet with the 3597 V marking is a generic for Vicodin, which contains 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 650mgs of Acetaminophen, it's a narcotic analgesic.
This medication has the potential to be habit forming and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, constipation and dry mouth.

Another note that needs to be added here is that as of 2013, the FDA has made a request that all manufacturers lower the amount of Acetaminophen in these combination prescription products to no more than 325mgs per dose.
There are concerns about the dangers of liver damage and failure that can be associated with long-term use of high amounts, as well as the toxicity of overdose.
Some manufacturers have already begun to implement the change and the rest are expected to have it completed by January of 2014. Thus, in the future, please double check and don't just assume that these tablets still contain 650mgs of Acetaminophen.
Are there any questions or concerns?
