Description
Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen 7.5-325 mg is a combination medication used to relieve moderate to severe pain. This formulation contains 7.5 mg of hydrocodone, an opioid analgesic, and 325 mg of acetaminophen, a non-opioid pain reliever. Available in a package of 100 unit-dose tablets, it is typically prescribed for the management of pain where other pain medications are insufficient.
Hydrocodone works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, altering the perception and emotional response to pain. As an opioid, hydrocodone also produces effects such as euphoria and sedation. Acetaminophen, on the other hand, works by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins, chemicals in the body involved in the pain and inflammation process.
Due to the presence of hydrocodone, this medication carries the risk of dependence, abuse, and misuse, especially when taken in larger doses or for extended periods. It should be used with caution, following the prescribed dose and schedule. Common side effects may include dizziness, constipation, nausea, and respiratory depression.
