Hi,
It is absolutely true that you can not take Norco with Xanax simultaneously as per the FDA guidelines, there are all chances of severe interaction including respiratory depression, coma and death.
For the pain management, I need a systemic work up for the underlying cause and manage accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
