What is hydrocodone?
Hydrocodone is in a group drugs that are known as narcotic pain relievers or painkillers. Other painkillers are drugs such as morphine, Percocet, and Oxycodone. Hydrocodone is mixed with acetaminophen which is a less potent non-narcotic pain reliever that increases its effects. The combination of the two is used to relieve moderate to severe pain. Hydrocodone is only available through a prescription from a doctor.
How does hydrocodone addiction develop?
Hydrocodone addiction usually begins with hydrocodone abuse. Hydrocodone abuse is taking the medication in any other way other than prescribed. This means taking more doses of hydrocodone throughout the day than is recommended, taking more at one time than is recommended, taking it without a need to etc. Hydrocodone abuse can easily lead to a hydrocodone addiction. A hydrocodone addiction usually starts with a tolerance to the medication. Tolerance to hydrocodone usually means that you or the person you know has to take more and more hydrocodone to feel the effects they did in the beginning.
