Generic Norco 7.5-325 mg

Description

This medication is a widely used pain killer, but care should be taken with this medicine because the possibility of getting addicted and the other side effects can easily occur. Visit a doctor before you take this medicine.

• Respiratory Depression: The medication can cause severe respiratory conditions; high doses of the medication or its concomitant use with other CNS depressants such as alcohol or benzodiazepines may cause severe respiratory depression.
• Liver Damage: Toxicity is present with high doses of acetaminophen. Do not take more than the dose prescribed to you, and know your medications that contain acetaminophen.
