having experience being prescribed both of those drugs, I would have to say hydrocodone is roughly 1/4 to 1/3 as powerful as oxycodone 10/325's.
so, 5 or 6 of the regular 5/500 hydrocodones would be roughly equal in strength as 2-3 oxycodone (percocet) 10/325's.
good luck, coming from a person who suffers chronic pain.
i don't want to take opioids for the rest of my life, but at this point, it seems like my only
option to stay comfortable and active in my life.

Which is stronger Tylenol 3 or hydrocodone 5-325?
Significantly stronger. These drugs are not in the same class. Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions. You might get Tylenol III with codeine, but the oxycodone is stronger than the codeine.
Have tolerance to hydrocodone 10 650 what about Roxy 30 or oxy contin?
Roxicodone 30 contains 30mg of oxycodone and is an instant release pill. OxyContin comes in various strengths and is time released over 12 hours. If you have a tolerance to 10mg hydrocodone, a 30mg Roxicodone pill would still be way too strong. Oxycodone is 1.5x stronger than hydrocodone to begin with so a Roxicodone 30mg pill would be equal to about 4 and a half of the pills you are taking now. Oxycontin is prescribed for chronic pain because useres only have to take 2 pills a day for all day pain relief.
What is the difference between loritab and oxycodone?

Does oxycodone and vicadens show up the same?
Simplistically, 7.5 mg Hydrocodone should provide equal pain relief to 5mg Oxycodone but one must also consider whether there are other drugs such as aspirin or acetominophen included as these increase the pain relief provided by both these agents. Having said this, one also must consider that all drugs work slightly differently on different people and linear equations such as "this much of A equals that much of B" is only a comment that refers to the majority effect in a Bell curve.
