Tylox is stronger than Vicodin and can not be called in over the phone by your physician. You have to present a paper prescription for this medication. It is actually Percocet with ex-strength Tylenol mixed in.
The 10's are stronger. Percocet contain oxycodone (a narcotic) and paracetamol (Tylenol). The smaller number (if you see 5/325 or similar) in the dosage is the amount of oxycodone, in milligrams. The larger number would be the amount of paracetamol in milligrams.
active ingredient, vics are hydrocodone and percs are oxcycodone
2.5
dosage
percocet is a little bit stronger than vicodin in terms of its sedating and painkilling effects. i had my wisdom teeth out a month ago and after a few days the vicodin the doctor prescribed me for pain gradually lost its effect. he then prescribed me percocet which felt stronger to me but like the vicodin it gradually lost its effect. your body tends to build high tolerances to these drugs if used consistently.
Percocet are much stronger then vics. They contain Oxycodone which is a more powerful drug.Vicodin and percocet are about the same,your body metabolises different from everyone elses. While Vicodin might work really well for me percocet might work better for you. I have a vitamin D defeciency and fybromyagia and have asked my doctor to put me on Hydrocodone 5/350 as the 5/500 I am on now are not working for the pain.
Percocet comes in strengths of 2.5mg, 5mg, 7.5mg, and 10mg oxycocdone hydrochloride. Vicodin is 5mg hydrocodone. 5mg of oxycodone is the equivalent strength of 7.5mg of hydrocodone. Also, equivalent milligrams of oxycodone hydrochloride (Percocet) is slightly weaker than oxycodone (OxyContin). So, yes.
Vicodin 5-500 has 5mg of hydrocodone and 500mg of acetaminophen (tylenol). However Vicodin 10-500 has 10mg of hydrocodone and 500mg of acetaminophen. The only difference is the 10-500 has 5mg more than the other one. its stronger by 2x.
Norco is 5 mg hydrcodone with 325 mg acetaminophin or Tylenol, (NOT oxycodone with Tylenol, which is Percocet). Depending on where you live and how well you know the person selling the Norco, it could go for between $2 (unlikely) to $5 per pill. Usually dealers will sell pills for less if you buy in quantity. Just one more tidbit of info, the only difference between Norco 5 mg and Vicodin 5 mg is that Norco has less Tylenol in it than Vicodin. Vicodin has 500 mg Tylenol per pill.
Although both are pain killers oxy is percocet and hydro is vicodin/lortab. They are 2 different drugs with oxy being stronger
Vicodin is not an Opiate, but it is an Opioid. Although similar, there is a difference between the two. Basically, an Opiate is derived from the poppy plant while an Opioid is a natural or synthetic substance that triggers the Opioid (pain) receptors in the brain.
HYDROCODONE/APAP 7.5/750GENERIC EQUIVALENT FOR VICODIN 7.5/750It's made by Mallinckodt (hence the M). The strength is 7.5 mg of hydrodone and 750 mg acetominophen (aka tylenol).
only difference is the tylenol in tylox is more. SO IF A DOCTOR FEELS YOU MAY NEED MORE TYLENOL TO INTENSAFIY THE OXEYCODONE HE MAY GIVE YOU TYLOX BECAUSE TYLENOL HELPS THE AFFECT OF OXEYCODON FEEL STRONGER AND A PERCOCET 5 HAS ONLY 3HUNDRED AND SOME MG AND TYLOX HAS 5 HUNDRED MG THE MORE TYLENOL THE BETTER THE AFFECT.
If it says percocet 5/ 325 , 5 is the amount of percocet and the 325 is the amount of acetaminophen aka Tylenol
