Not at all. Promethazine is helpful in reducing nausea. Hydrocodone is a narcotic pain medication found in Vicodin and a few other pills (Lortab and Norco are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head).

Simply put -- Hydrocodone will work best for you if you are suffering from either post-op pain or moderate-to-severe pain. It has a history of abuse and has a moderate risk of addiction.

Promethazine mainly helps with the nausea that can occur during post-op. It doesnt make you feel euphoric like Vicodin will, it's not a narcotic, so the chances of you becoming addicted to THIS medication is slim to none.

Is it safe to take cyclobenzaprine hydrocodone and zyprexa?

There could be complications from adding the cyclobenzaprine to the mixture. Promethazine is sometimes mixed with opiates similar to hydrocodone in pharmaceutical preparations. The combination of promethazine and hydrocodone taken orally should be safer than the combination of all three, be aware that potentially dangerous interactions could still occur. Cyclobenzaprine should not be taken simultaneously with other CNS depressants (such as promethazine and hydrocodone). Also, the combination of just promethazine and hydrocodone will still cause powerful sedation with lack of coordination and possible dizziness. Do not drive under the influence of these drugs.

Are Mepergan Fortis and hydrocodone the same or similar to each other?

Both contain narcotics, but are not the same. Mepergan Fortis contains demerol (a narcotic) and promethazine (an antiemetic). Hydrocodone is also a narcotic, but not the same one as demerol. All narcotics are somewhat similar in that they can relieve pain, cause dependency and/or addiction as well as having sedative effects.
