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 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."

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."

For Pain "It took away the pain, but it made me very jittery. It should not be taken unless in severe pain, and follow doctor's orders exactly."
