Hydrocodone/APAP

My husband had his teeth removed and is in pain.  I have a one time question on usage of old medication.  Is it safe for him to take 7 year old Hydrocodone/APAP

You should call your dentist and explain your situation.  The dentist should follow up with your care even if your insurance is expired and any charges should be discussed ahead of time

Probably not an ideal situation to take meds that are expired.  Call your dentist and get a "refill" or new prescription

I had three wisdom teeth removed 12 days ago im having severe pain in lower side the dentist packed the tooth and said the pain would go away in about 20 min. The pain never subsided and the packing fell out four hours later and my insurance expires tomorrow.
