What Is Lortab?
Lortab is a medication that relieves moderate to intensepain. The two ingredients in Lortab are acetaminophen and hydrocodone.
Acetaminophen, better known by its brand name Tylenol, is a common medication
for alleviating mild pain and reducing fevers. Hydrocodone is also used for
pain relief, but unlike acetaminophen, hydrocodone is an opioid, so it is the
more powerful ingredient in Lortab and has the potential to cause overdose and
addiction. The acetaminophen in Lortab merely enhances the pain relieving
effects of the hydrocodone. The composition of Lortab is similar to that of
Vicodin, another hydrocodone-based painkiller.
Lortab functions like most other opioid-based medications.
When someone takes a Lortab pill, the hydrocodone binds to opioid receptors in
the brain and nervous system. This stimulates the release of dopamine and other
neurotransmitters which blunt sensations of pain and cause euphoria. When it is
used properly, Lortab is useful for treating pain. However, it also poses risks
for abuse. People can develop dependence on the effects of Lortab if they
misuse it. For this reason. Lortab is a Schedule III controlled substance in
the United States and it is illegal to use or possess it without a
prescription.
Some products that may interact with this drug are: certain pain medications (mixed opioid agonist/antagonists such as pentazocine,nalbuphine, butor phanol), naltrexone.

WARNINGS
Respiratory Depression
At high doses or in sensitive patients, hydrocodone may produce dose-related respiratory depression by acting directly on the brain stem respiratory center. Hydrocodone also affects the center that controls respiratory rhythm, and may produce irregular and periodic breathing.
Infants may have increased sensitivity to the respiratory depressant effects of opioids (see PRECAUTIONS, Pediatric Use). If use of Lortab Elixir (hydrocodone bitartrate and acetaminophen oral solution) in such patients is contemplated, it should be administered cautiously, in substantially reduced initial doses, by personnel experienced in administering opioids to infants, and with intensive monitoring.
