Whats the difference between my 2 types of hydrocodone pills?
I have recently had some pain in my lower back. I have been to the doctor many times over the last couple of months. I have been prescribed what my doctor said was the same pills, but they say different things on the actual prescription. They say
Hydrocodone/APAP 10/500
Hydrocodone/ACET 5/500
Does anyone know what the difference between these two pills are? Is one stronger than the other?

Hydrocodone addiction treatment
Hydrocodone addiction usually starts when a person is prescribed with the drug for chronic pain. When the person takes the drug and experiences the good sensation that is associated with it, they will usually start to take more than they need.
Treatment
The first step to treating the addiction is detox. The symptoms that come along with withdrawals can be managed under medical care. The detox process usually takes about seven to ten days. It is usually continued in a hydrocodone treatment center. You must understand that having an addiction can cause damage to you and to the ones you care about. It will take time to regain the trust from your friends and family again. Recovery in a therapeutic environment will normally take about twenty days and can be followed by outpatient therapy.

While figures for some kinds of drug use among teens have dropped slightly over the last several years, prescription drug abuse shows no signs of letting up. Supporting this abuse is the ease with which our young people can lay their hands on prescription drugs to abuse, particularly prescription pain relievers such as hydrocodone, often marketed as Vicodin.
A recent report from the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University shows that one-third of teens who know prescription drug abusers say that these kids get their drugs from home. Another third say they can get these drugs from a friend or classmate.
