"This medicine was taken primarily for shoulder pain. It helped very little, as there was always a little pain in the shoulder when I took them. The pain never actually went away. The pill only lessened the pain but did not eliminate it."

Acetaminophen / hydrocodone "I have gout in my right foot, both legs and feet are swollen. My back has a damaged disc, one is pressing on my nerve. It comes around the right side to the front down to my groin-very painful. I can't even walk, feel like someone kicked me there. Then it goes down my leg to my big toe. My neck has four discs that keep me from turning my head, it causes migraines that make my eyes tear up. I was in an accident that damaged my neck and back-hit by a truck from behind, and it traumatized my neck and back. My hands have degenerative disease. The Norco 10/325 brand name works very well. It didn't make me feel like I was high or dizzy, it didn't hurt my stomach. I have colitis, it goes right to the pain and I walk better, use my hands, and think on my own. The generic brand made me itch and break out in hives and sent me to the hospital for shortness of breath. I went to pain management and had epidural injections, didn't help."

"I have been taking 367 Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals acetaminophen and hydrocodone (325 mg/10 mg) for the pain for 6 years. My doctor prescribed this time I was given acetaminophen with hydrocodone (500 mg/10 mg), the Watson brand imprinted with 540. It’s just not the same, this pill is too strong for me, makes me feel very dizzy and start sweating. Did not have any sleep the entire night. Definitely, the FDA has to take a look at these narcotic acetaminophen and hydrocodone and check the different brands for active ingredients and strengths .... thanks .... god bless everyone..."

Acetaminophen / hydrocodone "What’s everyone's issue with Mallinckrodt? I’ve been taking 10-325 for 5 years. When I don’t take them, I’m in tremendous pain. When I do take them, I am not. They work just fine for me... Take them as prescribed and with ibuprofen if necessary."

"I thought my grandma was talking rubbish when she’d complain about "how bad the white hydros are." Well, I just got wisdom tooth surgery (I am 21) and have never taken pain meds in my life. Got prescribed Malinckrodt 10-325. I got more pain relief from ibuprofen. These are awful."

"I also noticed the change in the effects that my Norco had on me. I have arthritis head to toe. Sometimes I feel I'll ache all over even though I had taken the prescribed dosage. At times I have had to take extra to stop any pain. Usually, I just feel a little nauseous but better from the pain relief. I noticed the new ones that are hard make me sick. Something definitely has changed in them."

"I went every month to Walgreen’s for brand name Norco authorized by my pain management doctor. Walgreen’s requested the drug be sent to their warehouse. It wasn’t shipped, and they didn’t know why. I called Allergan, who made brand name Norco, and was told that Allergan sold to another that no longer makes Norco, the original drug before aka the generic versions. The generics are all bad compared to Norco 10/325 I was taking. They are full of fillers that cause health problems and less pain relief than Norco. We are in trouble. Norco and Watson were good pills that worked. They were very hard compared to generics that are soft, showing the difference right away. I can’t list all the problems with Tris, but the original drug decades ago was Norco, and it was far better than any generic I tried. The worst was Mallinckrodt that went in the toilet. We are on our own with generics that don’t work and cause side effects. The first sign of a bad generic is big and soft pills."

"I have RA and fibromyalgia. Add to that a L5-S1 18mm herniated disc with fur involvement and stenosis, and you have someone who has to live with chronic, severe pain. Of course, most who have RA develop a higher pain tolerance than someone who suffers an acute pain episode because we deal with constant pain 24/7, and you tend to grow to accept that pain. Your brain tends to help you basically hypnotize yourself into a bit of pain relief just as a mechanism of self-preservation, however, the pain is still there, and it’s still very painful. You just automatically fool yourself into thinking or accepting it as less. Having said that, RA patients also contend with flares (flare-ups), which not only has you feeling constant pain, you just get to add to that already constant pain with total body pain/aching and fever, which feels like a bad case of the flu with aching all over, along with your already excruciating chronic pain. So, relief via pain medication is absolutely necessary."

"I have been through 8 orthopedic operations, suffer with RA, and failed back surgery syndrome. Still, I would be able to supplement my ibuprofen with no more than 20 mg per day of hydrocodone. Suddenly, after five years, these meds don't offer anything but dizziness, a sense of illness, fatigue; it's like their fillers are put in them to make people ill. I am scared that people could become really ill on them."

Acetaminophen / hydrocodone "I have been taking Vicodin over 10 years, and most of it for back pain. Now, I have osteoporosis, scoliosis, arthritis, and more. I have always cut the pills in half and never overused them. My doctor gives me 2 prescriptions a year, and I make them last. I have not had any side effects from this medication and take a half most of the time. A whole one only if in severe pain. Sometimes I do not take them for months, depending on my pain level."
