User Reviews for Vicodin ES oral

Works fast but only last about 1 to 2 hours

I was given this drug for pain after a minor surgery. It did nothing to stop the pain and it made me so anxious. I was freaking out and pacing around my house for hours after taking two pills. I was told by the doctors that I had an "adverse reaction" to the drug.

I was taking 7.5 oxycodone for about a year. On my last visit to the Dr. she read someone else's results saying that Vicodin would work better for me. Since she had already written the script I decided to try it. It may ease my pain slightly for about an hour and a half. Different Dr prescribed Nucyta, it's supposed to last longer. Just started it yesterday and it doesn't seem to work well. We will see. I'll probably end up going back on the Oxycodone, which does not last more than three hours. I have tried everything for my chronic back pain. I hope someone can help me find something that works.Read More Read Less

I have chronic back and neck pain and this medication relieves my symptoms

Root canal retreatment; did not help pain. Felt groggy and had a hangover and felt very emotional the following day.

Very good for my pain. First used following eye surgery in 1992. Had 8 pills left which I am using for my horrible L1 fracture. It seems to be best pain killer I have tried, even though the pills are 22 years old. I do NOT drink, smoke or take drug addict type drugs (like marijuana). Will be 65 next month and my body is starting to give me some grief. This was originally given to me as a prescription and don't think it's available as an over-the-counter item. Be careful how much you take since it does have acetaminophen in it. Seems to take from 20 minutes to 90 minutes to start working, so don't over do it if it doesn't work right away. This is one person's opinion.Read More Read Less

Useless for me. The only thing that happened was about 10 mins after swallowing I was dizzy for approx. 15 seconds. That's it. Might have well eaten a coughdrop to deal with the pain.

oa and op causing alot of crippling pain,drug helps but you have to take it at onset of pain to work properly.

bql4ed, Norco is the same as Vicoden w/less acetamin, Kroger cost $58 for 120. Hope this helps you.

Need fusion, don't want to have it yet, use for pain.

Ive been told by my doctor that the generic form of Vicodin ES 7.5mg/750 Acetaminaphen is no longer available and I am forced to get a RX for Hydrocodone ES 7.5/ 300mg Acetaminaphen at a cost of $172.00. 6 or 7 times the normal am't Ive been paying. I'm on Medicare without Part D so I pay for all my RX's. I am on a limited income. Can you adsvise?

This medicine works wonders, I use it for lower back pain and migraines.

severe lower back pain-treatment for pain until it gets better.

My experience has been good. As long as I take it in a timely manner.

want to know what the numbers mean on the vicodin. 5/500
