Norco is one of several brand names for
the combination of Tylenol and hydrocodone which is
also known as Vicodin, Lortab and Norco. Norco is a
narcotic with the same properties as other opioids like
heroin and morphine. Norco is prescribed for pain because
like other narcotics, it blocks the transmission of
pain in the brain and spinal cord. This makes Norco
very effective but also makes it very risky for abuse
and addiction. There is no shortage of statistics surrounding
abuse of Norco and other prescription narcotics. According
to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, approximately
4 million Americans reported using prescription drugs
for non-medical purposes in 1999 and pain relievers
such as Norco where the largest category by a large
margin.
