Hydrocodone is generally considered stronger than propoxyphene, the active ingredient in Darvocet. A typical dose of 5 mg of hydrocodone is more potent in terms of pain relief compared to 100 mg of Darvocet. Additionally, Darvocet has been largely withdrawn from the market due to safety concerns. Therefore, in terms of effectiveness, 5 mg of hydrocodone is stronger than 100 mg of Darvocet.
Hydrocodone is an opiate (meaning it's a derivative of opium), I believe. Darvocet is an Opiod, which means it's synthetic and made to chemically mimic the effects (especially painkilling properties) of other opiates. To my knowledge, Hydrocodone is more potent than Darvocet and is a schedule 3 controlled substance-Darvocet is schedule 4. The smaller the number, the higher the abuse potential. Hope that helped.
Yes. Hydrocodone is the generic name for Vicodin
NO. Norco is a combination of hydrocodone and acetaminophen. Darvocet is propoxyphene and acetaminophen. WARNING: Darvocet in overdose is highly toxic, many fatalities have resulted from such overdoses.

There are 2 active ingredients in Vicodin and Darvocet. Vicodin has Hydrocodone and acetaminophen in it. Darvocet has Propoxyphene and acetaminophen. Vicodin is a much stronger analgesic than Darvocet. Huge difference!
Darvocet is non addictive as it is not from the opium family like vicodin is.

No, Darvocet* is a brand name* * for a propoxyphene compounded drug. It is a controlled substance, available legally only by prescription. A lot of physicians just wont presecribe it at all because it is highly adictive. And many say that it just does not do the job, and that better products with fewer possible consequences are available. (Still it is a steady producer for Eli Lilly; all physicians are not in agreement.) Propoxyphene is related to codeine and hydrocodone, but it is not the same. *Darvocet is a product belonging to Eli Lilly and Company. It contains other substances than just propoxyphene; it comes in various doses, sizes and shapes. See the link discussing Darvocet and associates. ** Darvocet and several combinations are brand names of Eli Lilly. Propoxyphene is a generic drug; however, Darvocet is a particular product, with a particular shape, combination and packaging. Darvocet and its variations belongs to Eli Lilly and Company.
