A member asked:
Can you take half of a hydrocodone/acetaminophen (norco) pill to get half the dosage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The only pills generally not recommended to cut or crush are time-released longer acting opioid containing drugs, where disrupting the pill effects the time release. For an immediate release drug like Norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen) (or vicodin, or lortab or any other), cutting it in half is fine.
