It might seem little but I broke my hand and was prescribed 5mg Norco (Hydrocodone). I took a total of 15mg Hydrocodone today and not thinking a few hours poured a glass of wine and had two big sips before remembering the warning label. Will I be okay? ## How are you feeling? Did you experience any adverse effects? The typical main issue with taking such a medication is that increased risk of severe side effects, which may include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.

I just finished a prescription of Hydrocodone - 50 pills were in the prescription. It was Hydrocodon-Acetaminophine 7.5-3.25. I took them over the course of 11 days. When will it be safe for me to have alcohol? ## Hello, Doddy! How are you?

Can I drink 8 hours after having one pill of 5/325 Hydrocodone/Tylenol? I am only wanting to have a couple. ## Hello, Genny! How are you?

A friend of mine well an old friend is making some very bad life choices right now. He use to be addicted to vyvanse and he "tired" to stop but he continues to do more drugs. I'm just wondering these are the pills he posted that he has along with alcohol. What were to happen is mixed? ## Hi littlebites, Sorry to hear about what your friend is going through. As far as interactions are concerned though, alcohol is reported to be very dangerous to take with either of those medications since it can potentiate some of their most undesirable side effects and in certain cases may be deadly. If he keeps this type of abuse up, he may not be around much longer. So as a "friend" who knows him personally, I would encourage you to intervene in whatever honest way that you see fit...

Why is it that the government wants to control the hydrocodone epidemic? There are overdoses happening anywhere and it doesn't have to come from a doctor or a pharmacy. If you compare the number of deaths from alcohol related accidents and alcohol abuse, lung cancer from cigarettes, they will outweigh the abuse and deaths from Hydrocodone. So why is the government and politicians not going after cigarettes and alcohol and banning them? Going to be because they make money off cigarettes and alcohol. People in chronic pain who actually need hydrocodone are made to suffer because the government does not make money off of these pills, but the companies who provide spinal cord stimulators and that type of thing do make money off people needing to get out of pain. Why is there a liquor st...

I have really bad back pain and was wondering if you can use hydrocodone acetaminophen 5325 TB for it. And if I can does it have aspirin? ## dwayne yes it is for pain and no it does not have aspirin in it ## What other joint relievers can I use for my back. That I can find over the counter. ## dwayne try aleve, same as naproxen it is over the counter and i find it better than ibuprofen-motrin, you may also try a magnesium supplement, try a bath with 1 cup epsom salt and some sports alcohol to the bath, i know this sounds simple but it works great. the epsom salt has magnesium in it and is absorbed thru the skin when put in the bath, just an old grandma remedy that still works great today. ## @Dwayne, As a former college athlete I can vouch for an Epsom Salt bath being effective for back...

The DOT physical Doctor would not approve my physical because I was being prescribed Hydrocodone 5 mg. I had to get a statement from my regular Dr. saying I would not be prescribed that medicine any more. I was taking the medicine for reumetoid arthuritis. Does anyone know anything about this new law? ## Not sure if you drive a city bus, school bus etc... or if it even matters. I drove a school bus for 14 years and during that time frame I'd had 8 out of 13 surgeries, in which the last two was on my back, lumbar region. After the first back surgery I was put on 5mg oxycodone for break through pain and MS Contin, Dilaudid and a few others trying to find what helped the best for relief. I also was required to get a yearly physical and random drug / alcohol evaluation throughout the sc...

I take 10 mg hydrocodone daily. I binge drank Saturday night and have been sick in bed with a tremendous hangover for 3 days. Anyone else experienced this? ## Well, mixing alcohol with prescription drugs is NEVER a good idea, it can enhance the side effects and cause exactly what you're experiencing, especially with a narcotic such as Hydrocodone. It is possibly it's been caused by something else, but highly doubtful. Have you tried consulting your doctor? ## Vicodin is a combination of hydrocodone and acetaminophen (Tylenol). Some people take Vicodin and drink alcohol to intensify the effect of the hydrocodone. Unfortunately, mixing alcohol and acetaminephin WILL lead to liver damage and eventual liver failure (cirrhosis), which is often fatal. There are warnings on Tylenol or ...

My sister is getting married on Saturday. I took a spoonful of Hydrocodone / Chlorpheniramine ER and was wondering if I could drink beer at her wedding on Saturday? I take 5 milliliters every 12 hours. ## It is the Hydrocodone that is the main concern here, since it is known to react with alcohol far more than the Chlorpheniramine, according to FDA reports. It could cause you to experience more severe side effects than usual, such as dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, sedation, and headache. Unfortunately, you did not list the time frame in between drinking and taking the medication. Can you post back and be more specific? Thank you! ## How long does 10 ml of chlorpheniramine maleate stay in your system? ## Depends if you're a fast or slow metabolizer. On average it's about 5 days. ...
