I am 27 years old and I take 10-12 10/325 (vic's) pills per week - primarily for pain and relaxation.  I have pain that prevents me from sitting for long periods of time without the help of this type of medication.  I very typically lay off for the entire week and then take pills during the weekend.  I've found that Ultram is MUCH more effective for relieving my back/hip pain originating from broken hip and pelvis (traumatic car accident) in 1998.  I have developed a tolerance, however, to the hydrocodone.  I find that I need to take 2 10/325's pills to really get the full effects, and that doesn't last more than about 3 hours.  I fear that taking this regimen is harmful to my liver - especially the 325 of tylenol each pill.  I have 2 questions - how long do I have to lay off in order to lose that tolerance?  I think this is called a "drug holiday".  Question 2: if the tylenol is damaging my liver - is that damage irreperable?
