Hydrocodone is a narcotic analgesic. It works centrally in your brain to deliver pain relief rather than in the peripheral, or rest of your body, to deliver pain relief. It does not have the anti-inflammatory property that NSAIDs have.

So to answer your question, no, hydrocodone is not an NSAID. If your question was related to an allergy to NSAIDs, you can take hydrocodone if you have an allergy to NSAIDs
