oh shit i got my wisdom teeth out and i been taking hydrocodone for almost a week. i'm addicted!!

[TheCajun124]

but they won't show you what Prozac or other antidepressants do to your brain.

"ADD" meds like Ritalin actually SHRINK the brain, I shit you not. Way more people in this country,  (including children), are addicted to those.......

You don't snort hydrocodone.. Not enough bioavailability and too much tylenol or ibuprofen to be worth it.. Alot of people simply chew or crush and swallow them to make it easier for the stomach to digest and so that it has more surface area. Taken with an antacid it aids in the bioavailability due to the lowering of the ph causing less to be destroyed also takin in a warm or carbonated beverage it speeds the absorbtion. The only cause of liver and kidney failure is the APAP and ibuprofen.

@3344utube I'm with you I had surgery on my foot (had screws drilled in to help a bone grow back together) and it just cancels the pain and helps me function normally. addicts are the ones that mess it up for people like us

[GamersRenaissance]

Illegal and unsafe without a prescription.. I agree, but does this mean its safe with a prescription? Don't try to fool us. We know what subliminal messages are.

[3344utube]

the dr. kept telling me some people get a rush that causes addiction- hasn't happened,i'm not sleepy or high,just pain free so i can actually walk

[wedontknowone1]

ok i just realized you were joking!ha im on 40MGS right now! ha

[wedontknowone1]

@gregsimson yea how many mgs have you been taken daily? nd the docs would perscribe you more than what youll actually need

[Meingun]

I remember when i was prescribed norco... it was fuckin tight

[SweetUniverse]

Some ppl get addicted to things and some don't. I took the watson 380's for a whole week last summer for lower back pain, and at the end of the week went on without them. What I don't like is after a couple days of taking vicodin, you get really really sleepy. You can sleep for a whole day. I don't like that.

[Hostilityyy]

i used hydrocodone nearly every day for around a year and a half, and quit, not one withdrawal. take that quack

[MyLoVe4DrAmA1st]

i had acl surgery and ive been hooked on percocets and hudrocodone, best fucking ivention ever. im addicted to this shit.
