Google is a great place to start. Also searching for hydrocodone will help, since that is the active ingredient in vicodin.

Hey Mike, I can help you out here with your problem. Vicodin (Hydrocodone w/ Acetaminophen/Paracetamol) is a Class III Narcotic Analgesic (Painkiller). Hydrocodone is considered 4-7 times as potent as oral morphine, meaning it can really make you a bit loopy. As for it's painkilling properties, the drug works wonders. This and Percocet (Oxycodone w/ Acetaminophen/Paracetamol) are both very popular prescription painkillers that (Vicodin) is used for moderately to moderately severe pain and (Percocet), which is used for moderate to severe pain.

Side effects of Hydrocodone are --- Dizziness, Drowsiness, Constipation, Slow-Breathing, Slow-Pulse, Nausea, Euphoria, Urinary Retention, Decreased Sex Drive, Sweating, etc. These are the more popular side effects of Hydrocodone. The reason Hydrocodone has these type of effects on your body are simple, it's a central nervous system depressant, which in term slows your body down (breathing, etc).

As for your pain, this drug will be perfect for it. Now depending on which type of pain it is would make a huge difference, but this would definitely help, for sure.

Hope this helps,

Regards.

hydrocodone is very addictive, and take your time with dosages.
