What Are The Side-effects Of Having Hydrocodone?
This is about chronic pain management. My recent knee replacement was not successful, and I have been referred to a chronic pain specialist whom I have not seen yet. I am 78 and wonder how dangerous it would be to take hydrocodone/ace daily. YYYY@YYYY

Hi.
It would certainly be habit forming, and unfortunately given your situation you may require the medication. Of course it is not our first choice, but given the continuous pain we may have to consider it.
Best wishes.
