Is Hydrocodone Pill Advisable Along With Ambien Post A Dental Surgery?

My husband just had some dental surgery. He has hydrocodon-acetaminoph 7.5-325 for the pain. He took an ambian to help with sleeping. Should he be able to take one of his hydrocodon pills along with the ambian?

Hi..
Thanks for the query..

Well, it is not advisable to take narcotics with any sleep medicines as it can cause increase sleepiness, dizziness and other symptoms..

So it is better to take painkillers other than narcotics for avoiding any complication..

You should also consult his dentist or an Emergency room to get a prescription of painkiller other than narcotics..

Narcotic along with sleep medicine can be taken only if other options are not helpful in pain relief..

So better to be on safer side..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
