A member asked:
Dry socket. taken 10mg hydrocodone every4-6hrs. last dose took 15mg and still no relief. is it safe to take the other half? 20mg total?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Large dose: That is a high dose. Probably not since I don't know your weight, other medications and other medical factors. A dry socket can be treated with local measures by dentist/oral surgeon that will take care of most or all of the pain without meds (packing socket with analgesic medication). Call dentist/oral surgeon to discuss.
