Norco 7.5/325 Tablets
If you have moderate-to-moderately severe pain, a healthcare provider may prescribe Norco® (hydrocodone/APAP) 7.5/325 tablets. Your dosage, however, will be based on several factors, such as how you respond to Norco, other medical conditions you have, and other medications you are taking.
If your healthcare provider recommends the 7.5/325 tablets of Norco, the usual dose is one tablet every four to six hours as needed, but not to exceed six tablets in 24 hours. Some people may need lower or higher dosages, although there is a limit to how high the dose may be increased due to the acetaminophen content. It is very important to limit the total dose of acetaminophen to 4 grams (4000 mg) a day or less to avoid liver damage.
For the medication to work properly, it must be taken as prescribed. Do not increase your dose without your healthcare provider's approval. Do not suddenly stop taking Norco, as this may lead to withdrawal symptoms.
