The half life is about 3.5-4 hours. Not that long. But the higher

the dose, the longer it will last. Lets say 5mg would be about 3.5 hours.

7.5 or 10mg about 5-6 hours. 15mg about 7-8 hours and 30mg about 9-10

hours.

What is the half life of one vicodin ES?

About 4 hours


Can vicodin be taken 2 days prior to surgery?

For an adult, given a standard dosage of about 5 - 10 mg of hydrocodone in a Vicodin, and without any sensitivity to the acetaminophen in the Vicodin (such as the case with liver problems), then it should be fine to take a Vicodin 2 days before a surgery. The half-life of Vicodin is about 1 - 4 hours. So, plenty of it will have metabolized out of your system before the surgery takes place.

Does it take longer for Vicodin to get out of your system by snorting it?

No, because vicodin is metabolized in the liver. Essentially, this is the same as eating it. In many other substances, the drug crosses the blood-brain barrier in the nose, and therefore hits faster and the half-life is shorter. In the case of hydrocodone (vicodin), it will just take as long to reach the liver for "processing."

What liquids will take Vicodin out of someones body?

m No liquids. When Valium is taken, it gets dissolved in the tissues all over the body. Then it is gradually metabolized by the liver. It has a half-life of about 24 hours (in some patients, up to 200 hours!), i.e. every 24 hours the amount of Valium is made twice less. The liver cannot do it faster, and Valium cannot get out, or be washed out of the system by any liquid without being metabolized (that is, destroyed in the liver).

Is Vicodin the same as Hydrocodone?

The opioid analgesic ingredient in Vicodin is Hydrocodone. Vicodin is a brand name of a medication containing both hydrocodone and acetaminophen. Hydrocodone is an ingredient in Vicodin which is a "trademarked" name. Vicodin has Hydrocodone in it. Vicodin is a combination of Hydrocodone and Acetaminophen so no Hydrocodone is only one of the two drugs that is in Vicodin.
