What Is The Long Term Effect Of Taking Norcos For The Pain?
Question: I've been off of norcos for 3 weeks now I have four wisdom teeth coming in I went to the dentist and they prescribed me antibiotics plus Norco for the pain I don't want to get back on the norcos like I was so I'm taking a half a day Can a half of Norco 5/325 Milligram do any harm to me
Brief Answer:
No harm as such
Detailed Answer:
Hello Mam!
Thank you so much for writing in HealthcareMagic!
I understand your concern.Since you have already taken a long 3 weeks Norcos and now dentist is suggesting this to you to get ease from the pain,just taking it few more days for your pain would not be that harmful.You can always take an acid blocker tablets to compensate the side effect.
I would suggest you take the tablet only when needed,not to take it unnecessarily.
Hope this helps.Feel free to ask more.
