Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: Very good for pain, but left me very foggy & nauseous, not able to do much else but sit on the couch and watch football. The Norco hangover the next day was no fun either. Will use only when necessary.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I was given Lortab for tooth pain; I also have fibromyalgia, and was hoping it would help both. It did relieve some of the tooth pain, did nothing for the fibro pain. But I was so anxious, jittery, fearful, heart racing that I never took it again.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I will add it to the list of items called things I'm allergic to. My wife had to stop the car for me to throw up beside the road.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: Makes me sleepy but helps with my cough due to not breathing right after some back rib injury from a fall. Kills the pain for over 8 hours so I can sleep lying down too. Makes me kinda foggy so I have to focus to get stuff done.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I have had severe migraines for sometime and was on 4 different pain medications, this medication completely omits migraines from the day. Only side effects for me were being wired, and kinda snappy and sometimes short tempered. I've been taking it for a year, only when I'm going to have a migraine I take one!

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I had Bells Palsy last year, it cleared up however, it left me with severe headaches. Lortab appears to be the only drug to give me relief. I was very hesitant about taking this drug at first, due to the addiction aspect and side effects. I have not experienced any side effects. I take it only when needed.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I have been taking Lortab and Percocet for about a year now due to my endometriosis and ovarian cysts. It definitely helps to relieve the pain and anxiety. The down fall to it is the horrible feeling of withdrawal.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: Lortab has been a God send for me. I have had 6 major abdominal surgeries in 7 months. Last one in July of 08, and I still have a lot of pain. I take 1 x 5/500 every morning and 1 in late afternoon. It takes the edge off, it also winds me up, so I then can do some house cleaning.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: This medication was given to my 8 month old baby boy after he had surgery to correct his chordee and it worked wonderfully. I could tell he was in pain when he would pull on his diaper and cry so I would give him a dose (1 1/2cc) and he would be all smiles about 20 minutes later. There is nothing worse then to see your baby in pain. I'm so thankful he was prescribed this medication.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I take Lortab because I have osteoarthitis of the spine and I would not be able to conduct my life on a daily basis if not for this medication. Some doctors don't like giving this medicine out to patients because it is habit forming. But, like I told my doctor, pain 24/7 or a slight addiction. I will take the addiction. I can get over an addiction but this pain is here to stay and is not going to get any better.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: This helps my fibromyalgia pain along with Lyrica. I hate taking the medicines but I hate the pain even more.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I take Lortab 7.5/325 3-4 times a day for back pain. It works great. I feel like I have my life back. Before I was in pain all the time. It only made me feel loopy the first couple of times. After that it just took the pain away. I would recommend this drug to anyone who has chronic back pain.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I am a young (22 year-old) female who has bursitis in my right hip. I'm anteriorally rotated, and have a gluteal strain, so it doesn't help my hip. Physical therapy has significantly helped, but my hip pops every step I take, and often pops out of place. Again despite the physical therapy, the pain sometimes becomes unbearable. I have tried about 4 different drugs before Lortab. Lortab is the only medicine that eases the severe pain (when I'm between 8 and 10 on the pain scale). It is not to take for every day, but it is AMAZING. For me, the downside, which I have heard from many people, is that it can leave you feeling anxious, and I generally can't sleep if I take Lortab. I think the benefits far outweigh the negative.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I was prescribed lortab for pain due to an infected tooth. I do not feel it helped the pain at all. The only thing that it definitely does is helps me fall asleep. I am still in pain waiting for the antibiotics to clear up the infection so I can get a root canal. I haven't got the same results as the people that consider this magical. I really wish it was like that for me.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I don't know what I would do if the good lord hadn't guided me to my doctor. I couldn't function without them. They ease my back and shoulder pain enough for me to work but I can feel it if I'm pushing to hard. The people who invented this drug are a God send.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I take lortab because of a broken back. I have rods and pins to hold my back together. Lortab dulls the pain so I can tolerate it and do the things I need to do.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: Lortab has worked alright for me to ease very severe pain caused by misaligned verterbrae or insufferable toothache. Unfortunately it also has a very significant habit to give me hallucinations, not visual ones, but audible. I wake up in the middle of the night hearing things that are impossible, such as if I was standing in the middle of the highway at rush hour (worst case) or all the 'normal' sounds in a house seemingly tenfold magnified and loud.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: It took away the pain but it made me very jittery. It should not be taken unless in severe pain and follow doctors orders exactly.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I have been taking Lortab 10's for a few years now due to a rollover accident I was involved in. Had neck surgery, which involved placing a metal plate and screws in my neck. Still had severe neck/shoulder/back pain for almost a year after, with the Lortab and Ms Contin I am able to do things I would have never been able to do since I was in so much pain, but like people say here, follow your doctors instructions.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: Lortab is quite simply a Godsend. I have cerebral palsy and severe rheumatoid arthritis, and even after going on maintenance medicines for RA and CP related spasticity, I still had days when the pain was almost unbearable. I've been taking Lortab as needed for a few years now, and the difference is dramatic. I agree with those who say don't take it when you're not in pain, but honestly, provided you *do* follow your doctor's instructions and take it only when needed, I consider Lortab an absolute wonder drug. On my bad days, I wouldn't be able to remotely function without it. With it, I was able to take a trip across the country with no problems whatsoever (and ended up needing less Lortab than usual).

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) : Was prescribed lortab for alot of dental work that I'm having and I found that it really took care of the severe pain of abcessed teeth and it worked so fast. No real side effects except for dry mouth, and constipation; both taken care of with staying hydrated.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: I have been taking lortab-5 for a separated shoulder i received playing racquetball and it works very well to relieve my pain. You must follow the directions given by your Doctor, take exactly as directed. If you do not experience any pain to not take lortab, only take when needed please. I have no side affects with this medication which is good because many other meds do. Will only be on this medication for a short time. Please use with caution.

Lortab (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) for Pain: Lortab I have found to be the only Pain Medication that get's along with the medication that I'm taking. The side effects a mild compared to the cronic pain that I have 24/7 in order to walk if it wasn't for Lortab I would be bed ridden.
