500's 750's

by eliminnopee, Oct 22, 2007 11:06AM
  I have seen a lot of post with folks saying they are using 500's or 750's or both of Vicodin.  I am confused as, I thought, they only come in 5-10-15mg doses.  Can anyone shed some light for me?

5-10 is the amount of opiate such as hydro or oxy..the 500 or 750 is the tylenol in it.

The 500 and the 750 are the strengths of the acetaminophen.

I was just curious as to why people refer to the acetaminophen in them and not the hydro?  So a 500 could be like a 5-500, 7.5-500, 10-500 and so on with the 750 or 650 or 325?

Oh ok, thought maybe it was something we don't have in TN.

LOL no they are just telling us how much tylenol they are taking a day.

they may also be saying 5mg or 7.5 mg vicodin.  Sometimes people add zero's.
