| 1 | Wisdom Teeth Extraction - x4 | All-day vomiting, dizziness, nausea. Horrible day. | I started vomiting the entire day once I took this. I could not move without feeling the need to vomit again. My skin was hot, my head light, and my internal organs are just trying to figure themselves out at this moment -- all out of wack. I would rather deal with the pain of the extraction than to take this again. I stopped after 1 pill. Couldn't do it. Didn't work for me. | M | 29 | 1 days 500 1X day | 9/16/2011 | 1 | Post abdominal surgery | Severe depression. Feelings of worthlessness, thoughts of suicide. Nightmares. | I will never take this drug again. I sent me to a very dark, scary place. | F | 51 | 7 days 2X day | 9/14/2011 | 5 | lower back pain | Absolute rage. Irrational, migraine type rage. Angry at everyone, everything, for about 4 hours. Knew what was happening, had no control over it. Scary stuff. | The Vicodin got rid of my pain, but oh boy, I don't think I wanna take it anymore no matter what my back feels like!!! | F | 65 | 10 days 1X day | 9/6/2011 | 5 | Wisdom teeth extraction | felt great.. Like a little bit of a high that took away the pain and made me drowsy enough to get a good night sleep. Didnt wake up feeling fully rested but it at least helped me get through the whole night with no pain. I didnt experience any nausea or dizziness and felt normal and pain free all week :) | F | 17 | 1 weeks 30 MG 3X day | 8/21/2011 | 2 | 5 wisdom teeth extraction | Itching, very light headed, severe nausea, consistently waking up at 5am to vomit. | F | 21 | 3 days 500 2X AN | 8/21/2011 | 3 | wisdom teeth extraction all 4 | it works in like 20 minutes and it wears off quickly after about 4 hours (not the 6 hours it is prescribed to me, maybe because i am a muscular man). i didnt want to eat anything and at night i slept like 2 hours in total, woke up constantly. the pain subsided after 12 hours. however, my stomach was quite upset in the next morning, maybe because of the enormous amount of blood i swallowed and the medication to the stomach. i puked twice but after that i am fine. | M | 27 | 1 days 7.5 mg 4X day | 8/12/2011 | 1 | foot pain | Prescription upon intial dosage caused me to have volitle moods swings where i am not in control of myself.I felt so depressed causing me to cry uncontrolably then from that to anger.Everyone's tolerance is different from the other.From my personal experience,I think i'm gonna have to suck it up and jus live with the pain.I refuse to take anymore of these pills.To each their own | F | 33 | 500mg 2X day | 7/31/2011 | 3 | pain injury | best way i decided to get through my experience was just riding it out watching tv and drinking plenty of water.... i feel better wont be using it again even though it took the pain away didnt like the side effect ( in all cases you should seek medical attention ) | M | 32 | 30 MG 1X day | 7/25/2011 Patient History | 1 | Severe Menstrual Cramps | Anxiety, fear, uncomfortable in my own skin, room spinning, woke up several times in the night, vivid and crazy dreams, itching, nausea, chills, and the next morning a horrible headache. | I don't want to take it ever again. I was feeling fine but just in severe pain. I took the Vicodin and was still in pain and feeling HORRIBLE. I couldn't wait to ride it out of my system. | F | 28 | 1 days 1X day | 7/9/2011 | 3 | bladder infection/ back pain | slightly light headed, dry mouth, constipation, mild euphoric feeling. | It works ok with pain for about an hour or two but then the pain slowly starts creeping back. I prefer vicoprofen because it isnt full of toxic acetamenophen instead its with ibuprofen and works awesome on pain and for a few hours opposed to just an hour. | F | 21 | 1 weeks 5/500 2X AN | 7/7/2011 | 3 | Ruptured Disc in neck | Slight nausia, very tired | The vicodin barely touched my pain. It took my pain from an 8 to a 6 so it helped a little. It made it possible to sleep. | F | 23 | 5 months 5/500 1X AN | 6/29/2011 | 1 | Surgery | Nausea, sleepiness | While this medication is an excellent pain killer, it takes days to feel normal after you stop taking it. You need a day to recover from the Vicodin before resuming normal activities. Ibuprofen works just as well and doesn't make you feel sick. | F | 41 | 2 days 1X day | 6/23/2011 | 5 | 4-tooth extractions | It relaxed me a lot and definitely stopped my pain. Felt amazing and worry free!!!! | Everybody says that vicodin didnt help them at all. I however love vicodin. My mouth was incredibly sore after i had my teeth removed, and when i was finally able to swallow anything i took a vicodin and it helped greatly. | F | 15 | 3 days 5/500 MG 2X AN | 6/19/2011 | 3 | boken ankle- then for fun | anger, mood swings, dizziness, carefree feeling, loss in appetite, felt like I was in a daze, tiredness | I take it when I feel really really depressed and it makes me not care about anything. When I was taking it for injuries it didn't really get rid of the pain- it just made me not care it was there. It's a good way to get away from reality(= | F | 14 | 500mg 3X day | 6/19/2011 | 1 | Wisdom tooth | The pain went away within minutes but as soon as the pain went away that's how soon I felt nausea, headache, and feel like vomiting all day! | I would rather be in pain from my wisdom tooth then feel like vomiting all day. Even if you drink a full glass of water and have a snack your stomach will still feel upset. It's the worst experience I would recommend anyone who's planning on taking this try something else that's a little weaker before taking this! | F | 26 | 2 days 500mg 2X AN | 6/18/2011 | 5 | Back pain/ Pars Defect | Sleeplessness, Loss of Appetite, Euphoria, Energy | So for this drug I would have to say it is probably the best drug on the market. For that reason only it is the worst drug on the market. This to me is more addicting than the stronger meds such as methadone and oxycodone. I know everyone is different but in my perspective this and percocet should be taken off and just prescribe the harder pain pills. I would also have to say that the high from these and the mood is wonderful. This is why it is so addictive so if you are prescribed this drug I would ask for something else and also for any tooth related pain this shit dont work. Ibuprofen 800 are wonderful for any pain related to denistry. Also if you do want to take these pills and are not an addict take exactly as told because if not once the doc drops you which he will it will be a lot easier. If you are addicted to this medication already I highly suggest asking your doctor for tramadol and take three or four a day for a week and then stop and you will feel perfectly fine. Promise you that. This is a nsaid drug with a slight amount of the opiate vicodin has and in that dosage it will stop any withdrawls by taking tramadol/ultram for one week straight. | M | 19 | 2 years 5/500 4X day | 6/1/2011 | 5 | Leg nerve pain | No side effects. | Very helpful drug for pain when used in moderation, but like all narcotics, it can be addictive if abused!!! I use it when needed only. | M | 56 | 7.5/750 1X AN | 5/28/2011 | 3 | Migraines | Rebound headaches, nausea & vomiting, lethargy, muscle/joint aches & pains, SEVERE INSOMNIA, SEVERE WITHDRAWAL WHEN I DECIDED TO QUIT "COLD TURKEY" (do NOT do this; have your doctor wean you off). No libido, bloatedness, and the worst of all...THE INABILITY TO POOP! | This medicine works great if you feel like relieving migraine paint/anxiety; however, for me, the bad side effects far outweighed the good. You may think that constipation is no big deal, but it was severe. So severe that I would be bloated and look 4 months pregnant. Now I know why Elvis looked the way he did. Withdrawal lasted about 10-14 days with near contant vomiting, diarrhea,and a weird oily skin feeling that made me take about 3 showers a day. I lost about 15 lbs. That being said, the pain relief is weird; it's like, you can still feel the migraine pain, but you just don't care that it's there. | F | 44 | 7 years 7.5/750 6X day | 5/4/2011 | 3 | Extreme Menstrual Cramping | It works much better than just taking plain acetametaphine, but it isn't always effective. It does make me somewhat drowsy, but when I sleep it makes me CRAZY sweaty. | Resist the temptation to take more than you are prescribed. Vicodin contains an opiate, but MOSTLY it contains acetametaphine, which can be lethal (complete liver failure) if you take too much. A 500mg dose of Vicodin isn't 500mg of opiate. It is 500mg of acetametaphine. Just be wary, because a lot of people don't realize that and they can cause some wicked problems for themselves. | F | 23 | 12 months 500mg 2X day | 4/30/2011 | 3 | Cronic back pain lower and mid back | liver pain,constipation | Not good for your liver please be careful with this stuff. | M | 33 | 30 days 5/500 3X day | 4/9/2011 |
