How many 50mg Tramadol tablets are needed to equal the pain relief of one 10mg Vicodin?

Answer 1

Acetaminophen Vi codanRegarding the ? of equigesic aspects your question poses qualities which raise "Red Flags" to me.As Vicodin is indicated for : mod-sev pain of non-neurological etiology and Acetaminophen is a med used for mild-mod pain not caused by an inflammatory condition and also as an antipyretic med(lowers fever); The two drugs act quite differently. The answer to your ? is: 3-8 grams.This equals 6-16 tabs. The difficulty your ? poses in an ethical sense is that the L.D 50(the lethal dose of Tylenol which would prove fatal to 50% of users)is 9.5 Grams. The reason I'd advise against using large doses of Tylenol is ,Too much will cause liver necrosis.The risks far outweigh the benefits in this case. The tone of your ? indicates to me that you're wishing to control mod-sev pain with massive amounts of Extra-Strength Tylenol as you may not be able to access or use Vicodin.Needing as much as 8 gs' is dangerously close to the lethal o.d. value of 9.5gs'. I am a Paramedic,not a physician,but I must tell you that the amount of Tylenol you would have to take would exceed current safety guidelines and my advice is to save your Liver.Acute Acetaminophen o.d.s' are fatal due to hepatic(liver) failure due to acetaminophens' being converted by the cytochrome P450 System to a toxic metabolite that is subsequently conjugated with glutathione and excreted by the kidneys.However,when glutathione is depleted following a high dose of acetaminophen,the toxic metabolite accumulates and is thought to be the cause of acetaminophen=induced liver necrosis.

Um....Dave,you didnt help anyone...You just confused everyone all the hell more,talk some damn english. Poor dude probably went and took 50 tynelol and 50 hydrocodone after reading the answer you gave him

Answer 2

Probably about 2 50mg tramadol tablets. One 50mg Tramadol tablet is roughly equipotent to one 5mg hydrocodone (Vicodin) tablet. But, as with all drugs, each person reacts differently to meds. Your mileage may vary.

Answer 3

are you an idiot for gods sake. Hydrocodone which is in vicodin, is a very POWERFUL narcotic opiate. which side effects include euphoria and sense of well being which why it should be a scheduled II drug. There is one peron who is so addicted who takes over 100 tabs a week and now has qualified for methodone treatment by the way methodone is for heroin addicts to stop withdrawals, research your meds for yourself don't depend on one pharpacists or physicians, they only go by the PDR which is pro every drug in the drug adidcts bible.

Answer 4

To equal the Tylenol level would be one 500mg Tylenol, however, 3's have codiene in them and no matter how many tylenols you take, it will not give you the effect of an opiate. If you take too many it will shut down your liver and left unattended you will die a slow and agonizing death.

Answer 5

Please check with any pharmacist for a reliable answer. You do not want to put stuff into

your body on the instructions of people on the internet who you don't know, and who you're

not sure are even people, or have any idea what they're talking about.

Answer 6

The number is 16. In other words, for every 80 mg. tablet you take of OxyContin, you're essentially taking 16 500 mg Vicodin tablets.

Answer 7

Depending on your age, weight, and metabolism, it all varies. For me it takes one. If you are under 20, I would suggest one.

Answer 9

There is no 500 mg Vicodin, maybe a 5 mg
