Best Answer

The best suggestion would be to either have your doctor up your dose, or switch to a more potent painkiller. Oxycodone (OxyContin), oxymorphone (Opana), and morphine (MS Contin) are much more potent than hydrocodone, but also more dangerous. However, if you did switch you would be at an extremely low risk of any healt issues related to the painkillers as long as you take them as prescribed. Most people are prescribed the more potent painkillers twice a day, but as long as you do not exceed 4 times a day your body will be fine. Opana is the strongest painkiller on the market, so it's highly unlikely you'd need to exceed taking it twice a day as prescribed.

im guessing but from what i have read on the net,you can increase the effects by drinking grapefruit juice or maybe cranberry,i think it breaks down the hydrocodone faster,and from what i gather,it can almost double the effects if u drink enough grapefruit juice,and drink an hour or so before u take it...

Is hydrocodone the same as methadone?

Yes, but it is really pointless because methadone has opiate blocking properties and will block the effects of the hydrocodone. When I was on methadone, I had a root canal and got vicodin (hydrocodone) and they did absolutley nothing because of the methadone. Methadone does help with pain though.
