In ny, hydrocodone was just recently made the same schedule ii dea class of drug. This means both have a known medical benefit but are highly addictive.

Narcotics: They are both narcotics. They are both powerful pain killers with addiction potential. The best pain killer for the your pain is the one that relieves your pain. If you have questions about these drugs, please discuss it with your doctor.
