The drug you got was a generic lortab. Lortabs are like vicodin but a lil bit stronger. He gave you a dosage of 10/500 which means 10mg of hydocodone and 500 mg of actemiphin(tylenol) I just had hip surery a month ago and my surgen gave me that. It works great for pain, your pretty silly when your on it but it does work!!! The only problems I had was I was constipated for the first week after surgery. But I had all the dripps in my iv and plus they were giving one or two pill every 3-4 hours , along with the delotin that I had in my iv And I was told to continue 1 pill every three ours. while I was out of the hospital, and I did.
The one thig about these is if you take too many in a day you stomach may get upset
side effects with these types of pills are all pretty much the same' They include: constipation nausea dizziness do not drink alcholic beverages while taking this med Taking too much results in shallow breathing
If you take it like the doc prescribed it you will be fine *Stace*
