All of the information on this page has been reviewed and certified by an addiction professional.

Norco is a prescription pain reliever. It is made up of both hydrocodone (an Opioid Pain Reliever) and Acetaminophen (which magnifies the effects of the hydrocodone). The highly addictive properties of the hydrocodone, especially magnified, make dependency on this drug extremely common and dangerous. Visit the Norco Page for more information.
