For Pain "Makes me sleepy, but helps with my cough due to not breathing right after some back rib injury from a fall. Kills the pain for over 8 hours, so I can sleep lying down too. Makes me kinda foggy, so I have to focus to get stuff done."

For Pain "I was prescribed Lortab for pain due to an infected tooth. I do not feel it helped the pain at all. The only thing that it definitely does is help me fall asleep. I am still in pain waiting for the antibiotics to clear up the infection so I can get a root canal. I haven't got the same results as the people who consider this magical. I really wish it was like that for me."

For Pain "I was originally prescribed this for a foot injury. Not one for pain medicines, I reluctantly take these once in a while. However, the last couple of times I have taken them at night due to body aches and pains, it killed the pain, but my sleep was filled with vivid dreams, and I could not reach the deep sleep. I woke up with a headache, hangover feeling, and totally drained throughout the next day - not worth it in my opinion with the side effects I am experiencing. Use with caution."

For Rheumatoid Arthritis "It helps me so I can get out of bed and do the things I want. Without them, I wouldn't be able to do much of anything."

For Pain "Had back surgery in May 2009, and due to scar tissue, I have chronic pain. Working now with a pain management specialist and taking Lortab. It does help alleviate the pain, but I only take it when I have to. The only side effect for me is a little sleepiness."
