Both are generic combination drugs of "hydrocodone and acetaminophen"...Vicodin or Lortab are the brand names. Acetaminophen (APAP) is the generic name for Tylenol. These drugs have acetaminophen in them for several reasons: to reduce fever and pain...AND most importantly...to assure that the patient does not take too many pills because taking more than the recommended dosage of APAP can result in liver toxicity or death. This medication is addictive and people who are prone to addiction will need increased amounts of the narcotic/hydrocodone in order to get the same "numbing" effect.

Addiction can be avoided by only taking this medication for mild to moderate pain and only in the amounts prescribed FOR YOU! If your medication is not strong enough, your doctor may increase the amount of the narcotic and decrease the amount of acetaminophen...such as prescribing Norco: the M367 imprinted pills...10mg hydrocodone/325mg APAP.

M357 is 5mg of hydrocodone and 500mg of acetaminophen

M359 is 7.5mg of hydrocodone and 650mg of acetaminophen
