Hydrocodone is a Narcotic pain reliever, and cough suppressant.

How is works? The brain works on many different electric signals, that react with the rest of our body, and help decide what chemicals our body needs to function. Hydrocodone works by blocking the receptors on the nerve cells so we don't feel pain.

Acetaminophen is a Non-Narcotic pain reliever and fever reducer it helps by elevating the nerves thus temporarily blocking or numbing the feeling of pain.

This is a prescription drug, used for moderate to severe pain relief.

And is also known as;

  • Vicodin
  • Anexsia
  • Lorcet

And is reactive with alcohol.

Hydrocodone / acetaminophen is a narcotic pain reliever a.k.a Vicodin.

The drug comes as a tablet in varying amounts with the acetaminophen content being quite high. This drug is available through prescription only. You should not take any other acetaminophen containing drugs (Tylenol) while taking Vicodin (unless directed by your doctor) because this can cause liver damage/failure. A fair amount of drugs can interact with Vicodin so you should consult your doctor on what is safe to take and what is not beforehand. You also should not drink alcohol.

Hope this was helpful
