Ok.....what are they?????

I keep reading- "hydrocodone may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide." Anyone feel like giving a few examples of these "other purposes?" Very curious. Doctors???  Patients??? Anyone have any beans to spill on this subject?  Thanks a bunch!

It was ocasionally used to treat, on a short-term basis, a hypertensive (blood pressure) crisis of unknown etiology because it is a systemic vasodilator and increases body capacitance. For the same reason some physicians used to prescribe opiates for unstable angina.

they helped my husband tremendously with nerve issue in his leg after a back injury. Also with hot feet, which he gets terribly and aches from nightly. Of course, after detox, they are back and unbearable!!!

actually read about any medication, and it will say that. Exactly what "other purpose" are you looking for in hydrocodone ?
