Replace for what?: If you are prescribed hydrocodone for pain, and it is either no longer working, you need to have a conversation with the prescribing physician about your pain treatment. Treatment should virtually never be just opioids - physical therapy measures, other medications for certain kinds of pain (anticonvulsants for neuopathic pain, certain antidepressants for fibromyalgia etc.) should be used.
