Hydrocodone is an opiate whereas naxopren, also known as naproxen is a non-steroidal anti inflammatory. Both are pain killers however the hydrocodone
Apparently this is Lortab, a narcotic pain reliever. Contains 500mg Acetaminophen and 7.5mg Hydrocodone.
No. Naproxen is an anti inflammatory, so does not make you high. You will likely get better pain relief though, when you take an anti inflammatory with an opioid painkiller.
Vicodin is a prescription pain reliever made of hydrocodone and acetaminophen. Naproxen is an over the counter pain reliever, commercially sold as Aleve. The difference between the two is that Vicodin is much stronger and is a prescription medication, while naproxen is sold in pharmacies and is essentially as strong as Tylenol.
Naproxen and hydrocodone are different types of medications used for pain relief, with naproxen being a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and hydrocodone being an opioid. They cannot be directly equated in terms of dosage, as they work through different mechanisms and have different effects. It’s essential to consult a healthcare professional for appropriate pain management and to understand the correct dosages for these medications.
vicodin... darvocet is like strong tylenol. vicodin contains hydrocodone as its active ingredient, making it a pain killer. darvocets active ingredient is naproxen which is a pain reliever.----Darvocet, while it may not be much more effective in pain relief as naproxen, is NOT the same thing. it is a synthetic opioid analgesic (propoxyphene) combined with acetaminophen (Tylenol). It is a very weak painkiller. Vicodin is a combination of the moderately strong opioid hydrocodone and acetaminophen. While Vicodin is much stronger and more effective at relieving pain than Darvocet, they are both narcotics.

hydrocodone is a pretty strong painkiller. combining it with another anti inflammatory drug like naproxen (aleve) or a muscle relaxer like carisoprodol (soma) can sometimes have a great effect on people who are dealing with headaches and muscle pain. do not take more Tylenol with the hydrocodone because this can be damaging to the liver. if this fails, he should talk to his doctor about trying a different medicine.
I have read that Naproxen could be taken as both, but in general at the first sign of pain take Naproxen immediately.
