Yes, the Hydrocodone is both habit forming and tolerance to it will develop. Don't take it longer than 14 days in a row and you should be okay.
Hydrocodone is an opioid and can be habit forming if used on a long-term basis. If used on a long-term basis, your body can become accustomed to the current dose and require more to provide the same amount of pain relief. However, everybody's body is different, as is their propensity for dependence.
