I struggled with a "complicated extraction" as the dentist put it on my wisdom teeth. I struggled with the pain for a while but eventually requested some meds. The dentist gave me this and it knocked out the pain very fast. It made me fall asleep instantly. WARNING!!!- Although this drug was very effective, I cut my dosage in half of what the dentist recommended. I found myself confused, my sleep ...
DO NOT USE THIS MEDICATION LONGER THAN A FEW DAYS FOR PAIN. BETTER TO USE ANOTHER PAIN MED THAN BECOMING ADDICTED TO THIS POWERFUL NARCOTIC!!!! ALSO CAUSES HALLUCINATIONS, NIGHTMARES, TREMORS, INABILILTY TO CONCENTRATE OR SLEEP. IT SHOULD NOT BE ON THE MARKET!!!

There are to many company's making the pills many of them are not much better then taking a tylenol they need better monitoring we should not have to pay for medication that is not the same as the name brand. And they do not all work the same i know. Pink ones are good waston white are ok the test are not worth using and should be took off the market.

I have been taking this off and on for almost 5 years now. At only 17, I have had several dental problems since my permanent teeth have came. I have had my adult teeth for about 5 years now. I do take good care of my teeth and I brush very thoroughly, so I know that isn't my problem. I have had toothache after toothache, root canal after root canal, abscess after abscess, and even 2 extractions, 1 of which was a surgical extraction. The medication helps with the pain better than anything else for pain. I don't take it every day so I won't get addicted. Usually 5mg doesn't do much for me, but the 7.5mg dosage is perfect for me. It doesn't take away the pain completely, but it makes it where I can tolerate it. To take it away completely, I take the medicine with Bayer Advanced Aspirin. The only problem I have with hydrocodone is that it makes me itch, otherwise no complaints. Read More Read Less

I have 5 misaligned disc and have deteriating arhritis in my lower back. I have had over 36 shots in my back without relief and not really ready for surgery. I take the 7.5 (4) times a day. Normaly it gives me relief as long as the weather isn't bad. I'm in accounting so I need to be focused and usually I only take a 1/2 a pill every 2 to 3 hours to ease the pain.
