Question about the new Vicodin formula...?
Pharmaceutical companies have recently re-formulated Vicodin so that it is now 5mg hydrocodone, 325 mg acetaminophen (Tylenol.) It used to be 5/500.
I am prescribed Vicodin for chronic back pain, and for some reason, the new 5/325 pills seem to work better and be more effective for my pain than the 5/500. Does this make sense, even though it is technically less pain killer per pill? I guess I am just curious as to why it works better, or if maybe it's all in my head.
People with nursing knowledge or knowledge of the medication are encouraged to answer. Thank you!
2 AnswersPain & Pain Management10 years agoWhat would cause a severe sore throat and these other symptoms?
I have bumps on my tongue and mouth, and also, I have had diarrhea for about two weeks, severely. I have been to the doctor and my bloodwork and other tests came back negative. It's so hard to eat because of the sore throat, and I'm losing weight rapidly. Also, I have attributed the diarrhea to anxiety, but it seems to be lasting a pretty long time for that. Does anyone have any tips? I'm miserable.
2 AnswersInfectious Diseases1 decade agoMissing a period after stacking Nuvaring?
Hey guys, I "stacked" Nuvarings this past month, meaning I had one in for three weeks, took it out, and immediately put another one in to miss my period. This was the first time I did this, and it worked, I didn't bleed. I took out my Nuvaring this past Thursday (Thanksgiving), and usually get my period by Sunday morning. It's Sunday night, and I still don't have it. Has anyone had this problem after stacking? Thanks!

Hey there, I'm leaving on a trip on Friday morning, and I'm trying to decide when to leave.

1 AnswerOther - United States1 decade agoIf I reserve a hotel room in CAD, how much will it take out in USD?
Here's what's going on. My hotel room is about $600 Canadian, which translates to about $470 American. My card is empty, and has a $500 limit. If I reserve my room on that card, will it be accepted?
I'm not sure if it would work, if the exchange rate takes effect immediately.

I am leaving for Canada in 11 days to see a few friends and I have just come down with a cold. I bought some zinc tablets and it says to take one per day, can I take two? They are 333% of your normal daily value of zinc.

Safely, I mean, without using any enhancers. I mean by just diet and exercise. I'm not overweight, but I do have 10 or 15 unwanted pounds I want to get rid of.
3 AnswersDiet & Fitness1 decade agoSamsung Instinct Owners please!!?
I get my ringtones from Mobile17.com. On my Instinct, they all come in saved as mobile17file. That means when I download another one it overwrites the different one. Anyone know how to rename these so that this doesn't happen? Thanks!!
