The watson 540 is a generic lortab the pink hydrocodone is in the lorset family which is one level higher than hydrocodone and right under a lower percocet.
Yes Hydrocodone is in both Norco & Lortab. Vicodin, Norco and Lortab are the brand names of the analgesics.
Flexiril, is a muscle relaxant, while hydrocodone (usually known as vicodine) is a narcotic pain reliever. So yes, in a way they are both pain pills, but they target different areas.
Watson 349 is stronger The Watson 853 is Hydrocodone 10 MG and Acetaminophen 325 MG The Watson 349 has Hydrocodone 5 MG and Acetaminophen 500 MG If one is discussing Acetaminophen strength this is correct. But in regards to the strength of the painkiller itself the Watson 853, generic of Norco, is the stronger pill having twice the amount of the Hydrocodone in it. Though the Acetaminophen helps make the Hydrocodone more effective but the Hydrocodone is the primary painkilling agent in the pill.
They're both hydrocodone bitartrate (almost all of the time, when found in pills such as Lortab and Vicodin)- so 7.5mg is stronger than 5mg.
They are the same drug. Both are hydrocodone and acetaminophen.
Vicodin has tylenol and vicoprofen has ibuprofen. Both have hydrocodone.
Hydrocodone is not percocet. Percocet is a combination oxycodone and acetaminophen. Hydrocodone is the active ingredient in brand name Vicodin, which also has acetaminophen in it. The difference is that oxycodone is a little more potent than hydrocodone, but both are very effective for treatment of pain.
The only difference between Zydone and Vicodin is the amount of acetaminophen contained in each product. They both contain hydrocodone and acetaminophen. Vicodin 5mg hydrocodone + 500mg acetaminophen Vicodin ES 7.5mg hydrocodone + 750mg acetaminophen Vicodin HP 10mg hydrocodone + 660mg acetaminophen Zydone 5mg hydrocodone + 400mg acetaminophen Zydone 7.5mg hydrocodone + 400mg acetaminophen Zydone 10mg hydrocodone + 400mg acetaminophen
I have rheumatoid arthritis and have tried both. The yellow is stronger (to me) than the white. Yellow 10-325 I need only 2 daily to 4 daily for the white. My pharmacy alternates between the 2. I am not going to refill the whites unless I can't find the yellows. This will probably require some legwork but it'll be worth it.
The only difference between hydrocodone 5-500mg and hydrocodone 5-325mg is that the latter preparation contains less acetaminophen (APAP). The first number in each is the dose of hydrocodone, while the second number is the dose of APAP. The primary ingredient in the pills is hydrocodone, while the APAP is added primarily to discourage abuse (though officially, it is stated to be for synergistic pain relief). APAP is the same ingredient as in Tylenol, and it is very toxic to the liver in overdose. The maximum dose of APAP per day is 4000mg. Therefore, the pill with less APAP is better if one is taking many of these pills for pain relief.
I called the pharmacist and they advised that they are both generic and that they come from different manufacutures.
Both the Watson 3202 (generic equivalent to Vicodin) and Vicodin 750 both contain 2 medications: hydrocodone and acetaminophen. The difference is the amount of these ingredients. Watson 3202 contains 5mg of hydrocodone bitartrate and 325mg of acetaminophen (generic Tylenol). The Vicodin 750 that you ask about is quite likely Vicodin ES (extra strength). This contains 750mg of acetaminophen and 7.5mg of hydrocodone. This is obviously stronger than than Watson 3202. When taking either of these medications, you must not take any other products that contain acetaminophen (Tylenol). Acetaminophen is commonly found in OTC cold and flu medications and products for menstrual discomfort (such as Pamprin, etc.) and, of course, plain Tylenol pain reliever that you buy OTC. Taking too much acetaminophen (more than 4 grams or 4000 milligrams in 24 hours) can lead to irreversible liver disease and possibly death.
