Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: I had 2 level cervical fusion in 2001 and now need 2 more. Norco doesn't seem to give me pain relief when pain is 8 and above. Now I also wear Butrans pain patches and I swear by them. They do come with the usual side effects but combined with the Norco I can survive 10 plus pain.
Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: I have been taking 5mg Norco every 3-4 hours during the day for nerve pain that resulted after a Total Knee Replacement which was three yeas ago. It has been very helpful and I am able to function which I could not do with a pain level of 8 plus. I have not had any side effects except for constipation which is managed by taking Swis Kris, a herbal supplement. They say Norco is usually not helpful for nerve pain, but it helps me.
Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: This medication is prescribed 10/350mg up to 4 times per day - or as needed. I normally take it 3 times per day. It is the only medication that has not caused stomach bleeding problems as aspirin did; has not caused liver damage as Tylenol did; and has not caused kidney necrosis/nephritis as Advil did.

Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: My previous doctor prescribed Tramadol for diabetic neuropathic pain... ADVIL worked better! After 2 ears I switched doctors and my current doctor prescribes Norco. Wonderful!

Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Back Pain: I've been on Norco 10/325 for over a year.. it helps me be normal, being that I have a slipped disc, pinched nerve and stenosis. It doesn't take the spasms away, but I haven't found anything that does. If anyone knows of one that works please let me know I've tried them all. I just hate that because people can't see an injury they think you are not in serious pain, I hurt everyday and would love nothing more than to just be normal.

Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Back Pain: This medicine takes the edge off my back pain without making me feel dozed out. I've used many different brands in the past, but the Norco 10mg/235 works better for me than any of the other generics.

Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: When dosage meets pain demand, such as , "Take 1 tablet 5 times a day , every 4-6 hours for pain, this medicine with a maximum Tylenol dose of 325mg is very effective in treating medium pain.
Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: This medication worked well for my pain after a C-section, but after 3 days I began to experience horrible nausea and headaches. The nausea caused me to strain my stomach so I stopped taking the medication and experienced headaches several days after quitting. Overall it was an effective pain reliever but, for me, the side effects were too much.
Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: Took this medicine to treat pain from surgery. Stopped taking after two days. Nausea, vomit, light head, dizzy and headache. Glad I was able to pinpoint the association with my misery and Norco.

Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: I had rotator cuff surgery on right shoulder and overused left as I am right handed, surgery went excellent but then pain to left side was tremendous. I had steriod shot with no relief followed by a couple of months taking Lortab 7.5mg with brief relief but the pain would come back full force. After changing scrip to Norco 5 325mg I felt relief after approx an hour, great feeling for a change. I still get up with the same pain but take the Norco and relief is on the way. I have had osteoporosis and osteo-arthritis for years and I highly recomend.

Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: pain relief was OK but it caused terrible nausea and headaches after 3 days of taking 10/325 every four hours after shoulder surgery.
Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Back Pain: I have a bulging disc at L4/L5 that's pinching nerves in my back. Surgeon told me he would rather me go on pain medicines than go through with spinal fusion surgery. I'd never even heard of Norco before, but it is seriously an amazing pain medicine. I also get epidural steroid injections which provide much needed pain relief. I take one Norco 10/325 when I wake up, then one before dinner. Just those two pills make a huge difference in me living a "normal" life again. Gave it a 9 because I wish it lasted longer so I didn't have to take 2 pills a day.)

Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: I was bitten by a rattlesnake on the ankle. The antivenom took the pain from a 10 to an 8 but besides that I was on Dilaudid every 4 hours and 10mg Norco every other 4 hours (so pain medicines every 2 hours). Norco was amazing. Worked fairly quickly. Used for a while until pain was gone. Top pain relief from a very painful situation.
Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Pain: Helps ALOT, without the help I wouldn't be able to get out of bed and live a " normal" life as just being able to enjoy my children, grandchildren their laughter smiles and even their tears. Instead of being in my bedroom in the worst pain ever.

Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Back Pain: I was in a car accident in April and have been dealing with moderate back pain since then. Today, I'm being medi-evacuated from my ship (in the navy) back to the States for an unrelated issue, and I asked about something for the pain while I'm on the plane. This is amazing. I feel nothing and I haven't been able to get rid of the pain until now.

Norco (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) for Back Pain: I have extensive long-term back damage I will suffer from for the rest of my life. I have been prescribed Norco now for over 2 years and takes my pain level from a 10 to a 7. My body has not yet become immune to the benefits Norco, it offers to relieve my pain even after 2 years. This medicine, combined with aqua therapy, and psychological therapy has made a HUGE improvement to my life.
