9 days post op foot surgery. Took prescribed hydrocodone w/acetaminophen 7.5 - 325 mg as needed for first 5 days then took only 200 mg ibuprofen every 4 - 6 hrs. Pain has increased somehat today and took two ibuprofen ~two hours ago. If needed, can I also take a hydrocodone pill now?
Hi, Yes you can take hydrocodone with Ibuprofen if pain is unbearable. Do not use it everyday as it has abuse potential. If the pain persist consult your doctor. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Rohit Kothari, Psychiatrist
