No.
Lortab "10" is generally referred to Hydrocodone 10mg's/Acetaminophen 500mg's.
Norco "10" is generally referred to as Hydrocodone 10mg's/Acetaminophen 325mg's.
Hydrocodone is the analgesic, or (aka) the main active pain reliever in both medications. Which is opiate based.
The Acetaminophen is Tylenol. A slight analgesic itself but is only a slight help for pain that requires Hydrocodone or above mixed.
The Apap is synergistic with the Hydrocodone in that it slightly thins the blood allowing for arguably better absorption combined with its own pain killing properties.
Some argue the Tylenol is added so abusers will annihilate their livers by over use. Which happens often,.. even with just Tylenol. As Tylenol is very Hepatoxic. But that is another argument/question.
So, with the Lortab you swallow 500mg's per pill/tablet - with the Norco 325mg's per pill tablet. (Of Tylenol) --- Per 10mg's of Hydrocodone ingested.
To err on the side of safety I would go with the lowest Tylenol content available.

∙ 14y agoThey have the same opoid in them. So if its a 7.5 Vicodin then it will be the same strength. 7.5 dosages of vicodin are not as common, so at random the Norco 7.5mg/325mg will most likely be stronger than a random Vicodin pill which is usually 5mg/500mg.

∙ 12y agoloratab 10 has more hydrocodone and more Tylenol then the norco 7.5 hydorocodone and 325mg Tylenol.
ANOTHER ANSWERLORTAB AND NORCO are the same medication; they are differentbrand names for HYDROCODONE mixed with ACETAMINOPHEN (generic TYLENOL). It is a narcotic pain reliever. The FIRST number indicates the amount of the actual narcotic (hydrocodone) and the SECOND number indicates the amount ofacetaminophen. Lortab comes in 2.5/500 (2.5mg hydrocodone & 500mg acetaminophen); 5/500 (5mg hydroconone & 500mg acetaminophen); 7.5/500, and 10/500. The same idea with Norco; 5/325 (5mg hydrocodone & 325mg acetaminophen); 7.5/325 (7.5mg hydrocodone & 325mg acetaminophen). NOW> in your question you asked about Lortab 10 "TABLETS". If you meant 10/? tabs or 10 actual pills, it's two different amounts. Either way, Lortab would be stronger. 10 PILLS would obviously be a bit stronger! Hope this clarifies the whole numbers game!!! <<Wiki User
∙ 11y agoIt depends on the person. Though, I would say Norco 10/325 = 10 mg hydrocodone and 325mg of acetaminophen.
If a person responded better to the acetaminophenthey should not be on any hydrocodone, IMO

∙ 15y agoThe active ingredient in Lortab is hydrocodone. The active ingredient in Percocet is oxycodone. Oxycodone is stronger than hydrocodone.

∙ 12y agolortab10 is stronger than 5. The second set of #s refer to the amount of acetaminophen

∙ 15y agoThe Norco is a lortab. So it would be twice the strength of the Lortab 5.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoLortab 10 mg is stronger but taking two lortab 5's would be stronger for the fact that the two 5's would have 500mg more acetaminophen

norco 10 is the maximum dose of hydrocodone without tylenol the tylenol usually makes hydrocodone work a little better but doctors prescribe norco if someone has to take quite a bit cause too much tylenol is bad on kidneys anything over 2000mg a day. the stronger would be oxycodone or percocet.
