It really depends on the person. Neither get me high so there is no fun factor for me. Norco kind of winds me up like caffeine. For pain, I prefer Tyl3. For me, Norco/hydrocodone, wears off suddenly at 4 hours. Tyl3 starts wearing off around 5 hours but more of a slow build on the pain so I can go longer between doses. I had spinal fusion recently and was able to do a comparison. It surprised the Dr. but it was extra cool to have other data to compare. My pain management, had a direct effect on not just my blood pressure/heart rate, which increases when pain increases, My white cell counts also dramatically increased when pain increased. I do have psoriatic and rheumatoid arthritis but I think it was osteoarthritis that took my back though.

Norco is a much better pain medication than Tylenol 3. Dentists used to prescribe Tylenol 3 for very short term pain relief. Norco is usually given in a 10 mg dose. Norco is the same drug a Vicodin. Each Norco is equivalent to taking 2 regular strength Vicodin's. It is a much better pain reliever, and won't give you a stomach ache like Tylenol 3.

Vicodin & Norco r both hydrocodone if they give u 10mg with tyenol. They r same just different names made by different drug companies.

They are 2 different things, each with Tylenol. Hard to compare depending on what you mean, some folks respond to one better than the other, some get stomach upset from one and not the other, the pills are different shapes and sizes too.
