Warnings
The NIH provides documentation outlining numerous warnings about this pill. Individuals under prescription should always tell their doctor about all their medications, whether over-the-counter dietary or herbal supplements.
DEA schedule
Although the DEA accepts these tablets as a treatment medication, it puts severe restrictions on who can prescribe, take and possess them. Individuals caught in possession of these pills without a valid prescription may be fined and spend time in jail. In addition, selling is a felony and could result in long-term imprisonment.
Addiction
Most doctors, however, limit prescription duration from five to seven days. Again, it is due to the highly addictive nature of hydrocodone bitartrate, which is an opioid. Some patients can become dependent in just a matter of days.
The U.S. DEA, Diversion Control Division, designates drugs containing hydrocodone bitartrate as a Schedule II “with a high potential for abuse.”
Alcohol
Consequently, it is possible to take a prescribed dose of this drug, have one or two alcoholic drinks, and suffer severe overdose symptoms, demanding emergency medical treatment.
Mixing alcohol with this medication can intensify drowsiness, cognitive impairment, and dizziness. It can also cause a rapid drop in blood pressure, profound sedation, breathing trouble, coma, and death.
For example, suppose alcohol is consumed casually in high amounts associated with hydrocodone bitartrate. In that case, it increases hydrocodone levels in the blood, risking overdose side effects like severe dizziness, slowed breathing, loss of consciousness, and death.
In addition, alcohol or any substance containing alcohol alters the metabolism of Hydrocodone bitartrate. Therefore, it can cause lower or higher concentrations in the bloodstream.
Storage
This medication should be stored between 68 to 77 degrees Fahrenheit and protected from light.
