Does Hydrocodene work good?

Question

I just took my pill. And it takes about an hour to start working. Does it work good? Because i had 8 teeth pulled and 4 of those were my wisdom. And i am in a lot of pain right now. I just had the surgery 3 hours ago so that may be why. And how long do you think it will take effect and start working? Thank you :)

Answer 1

When I had four of my wisdom teeth extracted three weeks ago, I was prescribed Vicodin (5mg hydrocodone/ 500mg acetaminophen). I took 1 Vicodin with 3 Motrin and I was completely pain-free during the whole recovery process. Since you say you have hydrocodone, it's Vicodin right? Vicodin takes effect very quickly.  

Answer 2

It is the most common pain med for dental work. It should take about 15-20 minutes to work unless you just ate(kinda doubtful). if you are still hurting after 30 minutes, take another 1/2 tablet. it should be much better by tomorrow.
