Vicodin 5/500 max dose is 8 tablets/day. This is based on the acetaminophen portion of Vicodin (The maximum dose of acetaminophen is 4 g per day). Hydrocodone by itself does not have an established maximum dose. This doesn't mean that you can't overdose on it, it just means that each patient's response is different, some will begin to experience toxicity before others, some will need more to alleviate pain.
It depends more on the amount of Tylenol/Acetaminophen in the Vicoden than the hydrocodone. Tylenol/Acetaminophen damage your liver and kidneys over time and the amount that can cause damage is variable from person to person. I have heard that doctors prescribe a max dosage of 1500-2000mg acetaminophen for people with chronic pain per day. My personal opinion, though, is that this dosage over extended amounts of time (younger people with longer time left to take it) would cause damage to the liver and/or kidneys. If you feel that you must take larger dosages and are accustomed to doing so, consider using luke warm water and a coffee strainer to filter out the acetomenophen. Drink the liquid, which should be almost pure hydrocodone, although the yield will be a bit less (also, remember that hydrocodone overdose is still a possibility in higher dosages).

The maximum safe dose of vicodin is a function of how much Tylenol is in the vicodin The most vicodin w/apap you should take in a day is 80/4000
Consult a Vet! That's a dangerous product for animals.
The maximum safe dosage for the average adult is 325mg.
I have heard some anecdotal reports of some doctors prescribing low dose namenda with vicodin to prevent or reverse opiod tolerance so it should be safe as long as the dose is kept low.
If 10mg methadone is an ok dose for you, then go for it my friend (:
is it safe to take vicodin and diclofenac together
The dose may be increased by a maximum of 600 mg/day at approximately weekly intervals; the recommended daily dose is 1200 mg/day.
Of course. 1000mg (1g) is the approved maximum dose (OTC).
no
They use various stages of testing to determine first a rough, then a precise effective dose and a maximum safe dose.
Vicodin HP is 10mg hydrocodone and 660mg acetaminophen. the limiting factor is the amount of acetaminophen, in which the max dose in a normal healthy adult is 4g (4000mg). 4000mg/660mg ~ 6 so you can probaly take 1 tab about every 4 hours and probably be safe as long as you are a perfectly healthy adult with no alcohol abuse
It would depend on your age, weight, state of health etc. Consult a doctor
