Does hydrocodone relieve pain in a person who is also on methadone maintenance?

No. The methadone works by binding the opioid receptors in your body. Hydrocodone is a weakened opiate derivative and therefore the two will not complement each other.

Is hydrocodone an opitate?

The terms opiate and opioid have similar, yet slightly different, meanings. Properly, opiates are only narcotic analgesics derived from the opium poppy (codeine and morphine). Opioids are narcotic analgesics that have similar activity to opiates (heroin, oxycodone, fentanyl, methadone, etc.) Thus, hydrocodone is an opioid, not an opiate. However, these words are increasingly being used interchangeably, and some would now consider them to be synonymous.

What are the effects of food on Vicodin?

I'm not 100% sure what you mean, but I'll answer how I took the question...

Can hydrocodon get you high?

Yes. It will get you high, but not like a weed high. Hydrocodone is an opiate pain killer so the high is a warm, fuzzy, euphoric high.I generally take 15-20mg, but to start i would suggest 10mg.Also watch out for the amount of Tylenol or aceteminophen because it is not good for your liver in high doses (Above 3000mg).Just don't take it to often because it can be quite addicting and you don't want to go down that road.

What do you take if you have an allergic reaction to coedinewhat do you if you are allergic to codeine would you be allergic to vicodin?

Benadryl is a good choice and any other antihistamine will help. Keep in mind that a reaction codeine or to any narcotic is like an allergy (itching, hives, etc) is really a side effect. Narcotics will cause direct histamine release from the Allergy cells(Mast cells) For this reason Vicodin (Hydrocodone) most probably will also cause the same reaction. The reactions may be different at different doses and some patients will tolerate alternatives.

What is the difference between hydrocodone and percodan?

Percocet is the brand name for an Oxycodone/Tylenol combination pain drug. Percodan is Oxycodone with Aspirin. They are DEA Schedule 2 controlled substances, meaning there are more restrictions on prescribing and dispensing.

The dosage indicates in milligrams the amount of each in the pill; for example, I use Percocet 10/325's, which means there are 10mg's of Oxycodone and 325mg's of Tylenol in each. Oxycodone is also prescribed in a time-release version, which is known by its brand name of OxyContin. It lasts from 8-12 hours.

Hydrocodone is actually listed on both DEA Schedule 2 and 3, but they're a bit different in composition and strength. Dihydrocodeinone is the base for Schedule 2 Hydrocodone; Hydrocodone and Isoquinolone alkaloid combination is the Schedule 3 version, and is the base drug for most common prescriptions, which are Hydrocodone/analgesic mixes (Hydrocodone/Tylenol, etc.). The way to tell is by your prescriptions; Schedule 2 drugs cannot have refills, be called into a pharmacy, require new prescriptions for every new fill, and the patient can only get a 30 day supply at a time.

Vicodin is the brand name for Hydrocodone and Isoquinolone alkaloid.

Of the 2, preparations with Oxycodone are stronger in relation to similar dosages (e.g., 5mg Oxycodone is stronger than 5mg Hydrocodone / Isoquinolone). On the opiate comparison chart, Hydrocodone is only 6 times as strong as Codeine, where Oxycodone is 15-20 times as strong.

Percocet is typically prescribed for short term severe pain (post surgery, e.g.) that is expected to heal, or for long term chronic pain patients as a primary or breakthrough drug used with a stronger opiate. Those who are taking it long term are typically referred to Pain Management.

Vicodin is prescribed for lower level pain, either short term or for a few weeks.

Can you mix over-the-counter medicines such as Triaminic 8-hour cough strips with Dimetap ND?

If you are unsure of what medications to mix with even foods, or other cold medications just phone your pharmacy at any drug store and they will tell you right away. Good thinking on your part! So many people take a simple cold medication or something for the flu when they are on medications and have a reaction.

to go along with the question I belive you can. What i do is get a small bottle and mix dimetap and triametic and nyqil in a bottle shake it up and give the amount of liquid that pertains to that child. it is not an over dose due to the fact that he is not getting his dose with all three tsp he is getting them mixed in one tsp. I do this because each med has something that the other doesnt. It seems to work a lot better than the one dose alone. and he fells better 24hrs later.
