Answer:
I think you mean does Vicodin have aspirin. The answer is no, Vicodin contains 2 active ingredients, Hydrocodone and Acetaminophen (Tylenol). How much of either ingredient varies depending on the prescription. On your prescription label you will see 2 numbers they will be something like 5/325 or 5/500. This is the mixture of Hydrocodone to APAP (Acetaminophen), the 5, 10, 25 will be the amount of Hydrocodone and the 325 or 500 will be the APAP (Acetaminophen). There are several different combinations depending on the manufacturer but they all do basically the same thing. All you are worried about is the amount of Hydrocodone, this is the ingredient that provides MOST of the pain relief. Unless you have problems with nausea, then you will want to insist the 325mg varieties as the APAP is what causes nausea and other gastrointestinal (digestive) problems. Be careful when taking these medications though, Acetaminophen is HIGHLY dangerous. Taking more than 4000mg/day can cause SERIOUS liver damage. Not to mention Hydrocodone is HIGHLY addictive.
