Hydrocodone dosage

  There have been times I've had to take 3 10/500 at a time to releave pain. Is there an amount that will mess you up if you take to many. I know 4000 is the most in a day.

Well if that means about 9 to 12 a day I would say you are going to have a big problem stopping.  If it's just 3 a day that might not be too dificult

The problem with any consistent use is that you will build up a tolerance and need to increase the amt. you are taking to get relief. EVentually you will probably end up taking as many as 9-10 a day, maybe more; and yes, not only is this hard on your liver, you will most likely become chemically dependent resulting in a full-blown addiciton. Then stopping will be HELL...most of us here have reached that point and are struggling to get off the buggers. And trust me--it is no easy task.

Good Luck--Hope this helps.
