Vicodin has hydrocodone, which is a narcotic pain killer in it. Usually, depending on the type you are prescribed, hydrocodone comes in 5 mg, 7.5 mg, and 10 mg. There is also generally 500 mg of acetaminophen in the vicodin, which is a more useful OTC pain relief.

Does Vicodin clean your system out?

Vicodin is categorized as a narcotic, and narcotics are infamous for actually slowing down your GI motility. To answer your question, no, vicodin will not "clean your system out." If you are taking any narcotics for a long period of time a stool softener is highly recommended to avoid constipation. As far as cleaning your system out, make sure you drink plenty of water, and eat foods high in fiber (fruits, vegetables, and whole grains). If that doesn't work you may want to try a mild laxative(Miralax is over the counter and highly recommended) or see your doctor.
