Does vicodin help with kidney stone pain?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Yes, vicodin will help alleviate the pain from a kidney stone. Other treatment options may include motrin, advil, and ibuprofen. Increasing your water intake will help pass the kidney stone while using the above medications if needed for pain control.

Not for long: The best way to deal with kidney stone pain is by treating the kidney stone. Lithotripsy is one such treatment. Acute pain from a kidney stone can effectively be treated with opiates such as vicodin although frequently more powerful intramuscular injections of opiates such as Meperidine (demerol) are needed to control the acute pain.
