How long can you not drive after taking Vicodin?

This depends on YOUR body! If you feel woozy or different after taking it DO NOT DRIVE until you feel NORMAL again. Some people can not drive on it at all. You should talk to your doctor about this to find out how other medications you might be on will react with it and how it will effect your body!


Can you take one methadone pill and one vicodin together?

If you want to, yes. But the methadone is a much more potent opiate than Vicodin. If you are taking an adequate dose of methadone, then it is likely that all your opiate receptors in your brain are full. That is, in fact, the point of taking methadone. If they are, then you probably won't "feel" anything from the Vicodin. If you are not taking an adequate dose of methadone, then the Vicodin will help with pain/opiate withdrawls/whatever you are taking it for. It is important to add that if you take the Vicodin with methadone, or any long acting/extended release opiate, that you are still increasing your chances of respiratory depression(the #1 risk of taking too many pain-killers or benzodiazopenes) EVEN IF you do not "feel" the effects from the Vicodin.

What is the difference between marijuana and vicodin on your body?

The difference between marijuana and vicodin on your body is, Marijuana is not as addicting as vicodin. Vicodin attacks your liver after a long time of taking them and you can also overdose while marijuana will effect some of your brain cells and make your lips darker.. lol honestly there is no comparing marijuana to vicodin. so if you are smoking marijuana, continue that rather then switching to Vicodin. Thank you- Ms. Watson 387..lol


Does weight and body type play a factor in how long vicodin stays in your body?

Weight and body type (and stomach size, assuming you are ingesting the Vicodin) DO affect the "kick-in" time of the drug. A drastic increase in body size could decrease the duration of Vicodin's effects, but this phenomena is virtually unnoticeable unless you're abusing your prescription.

Can you take a Vicodin while on Suboxone for a major migraine?

As long as you're not taking massive amounts of the Suboxone (like, more than two 8-mg pills) yes, the Vicodin will still work as a pain killer, even though you won't get high from it. You will probably have to take a double dose of it, though, or even a triple dose, depending on how much Suboxone you are taking. I am on Suboxone and last autumn I had a root canal, and the oral surgeon prescribed Vicodin for me, but I had to take double doses of it to get enough relief from the pain. I also had to cut my Suboxone dose in half (I was taking 8-mgs per day and cut it down to 4). Whatever you do, don't stop taking the Suboxone completely, because if you completely stop taking it you will have to wait until you're in extreme withdrawal from the Vicodin before you start taking Suboxone again. If you stop taking the Suboxone, and then start taking it again before you're in heavy withdrawal from the Vicodin, you will experience the worst, most horrible withdrawal symptoms you can imagine. You will get really, really sick.
