Hydrocodone-APAP elixir is a liquid pain medicine that has two components: the hydrocodone is a narcotic pain reliever and the APAP part is acetaminophen (Tylenol.) The same combination in pill forms are known as Lortab or Vicodin but are most commonly dispensed as generic formulations.

Hydrocodone is an opioid used for pain relief. The "apap" part is acetaminophen, more commonly known as Tylenol. The 5-500 means that there are 5mg hydrocodone and 500mg Tylenol per dose. The elixir part means that it's a liquid (hydrocodone also comes in pill form).
