pain. Acetaminophen and hydrocodone may also be used for purposes
other than those listed here.
How
to Take Zydone Prescription Pain Medication
Take
zydone (pain pill made of acetaminophen and hydrocodone) exactly as
directed by your doctor. Take each zydone dose with a full glass of
water. Take the zydone tablets which are a combination of
acetaminophen and hydrocodone with food or milk if the zydone pain
releiver upsets your stomach. Never take more of the zydone
prescription medication than is prescribed for you. Too much zydone
(acetaminophen and hydrocodone) could be very harmful. Do not stop
taking acetaminophen and hydrocodone suddenly if you have been
taking it continuously for more than 5 to 7 days. Stopping zydone
painkillers suddenly could cause withdrawal symptoms and make you
feel uncomfortable. Your doctor may want to gradually reduce your
zydone dose.
