Does anyone know a Dr. In the greenville sc area that will prescribe lortab? I am in severe pain and no one will help because of so many addicts.

I am sorry that you are suffering and having such problems.

Unfortunately, there are several issues going on here.

The first is due to the changes that were made to the laws at the beginning of the year. Medications containing the combination of Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone are now being phased out for long-term use. Doctor's are only allowed to prescribe them for short periods of time, such as for a few weeks after someone has had surgery or been in an accident.

Learn more Lortab details here.

The next issue is that general practitioners and surgeons are no longer going to be allowed to prescribe pain medications for long-term use, except in certain very rare cases. They have to send patients to pain management for them to receive ongoing treatment.

And another problem could be caused if you've been going to new doctors and specifically asking for them to prescribe this medication, because most have been taught to see that as being drug seeking behavior.


Thus, you will likely have to give up the Lortab and try something else and, when seeing a new doctor, you shouldn't ask for a specific medication.
