Brief Answer:
You are taking NORCO 10 and VALIUM

Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for writing through HCM.

I have read your query and seen your drug list. You are taking NORCO 10 and VALIUM. NORCO 10 contains acetaminophen and hydrocodone. You must be taking Norco for some pain relief but it contains hydrocodone which is a narcotic drug used for pain management. In addition to this you are taking valium for sleep which is a benzodiazepine that causes tolerance and dependence.

You must be confusing the amphetamine with hydrocodone or hydromorphone.

Prescription drugs for pain relief contains opioid analgesic which shows similar result to street drugs sometimes.

So, I suggest you to give them all the details regarding the drugs you are taking and for what purpose. when you shall tell the truth to them they may entertain you again.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have further query then I shall be happy to help. Wish you good health.
