A member asked:
I know a woman that takes 15 to 20 10/500 lortabs a day i tell her she is destroying her stomach could i get your input on her problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I agree: The main issue is the Acetaminophen content of lortab. At the rate she is taking her lortab this amounts to 7, 500mg - 10, 000 mg/day. This is almost twice the limit of allowable acetaminophen. The liver is the main organ that metabolizes acetaminohen . Shei is putting herself at risk in addition to the potential overdose (respiratory depression) fro m the hydrodone) content of lortab.
