What strengths of hydrocodone/acetaminophen are available?
Hydrocodone plus acetaminophen combination products are marketed in multiple fixed-dose strengths, typically expressed as “hydrocodone mg / acetaminophen mg per tablet.” Common strengths include:
- 2.5 mg / 325 mg
- 5 mg / 325 mg
- 7.5 mg / 325 mg
- 10 mg / 325 mg
Prescription availability can vary by country, prescriber preference, and manufacturer.
How do you read the strength on the prescription bottle?
On a label, the strength usually appears as “hydrocodone and acetaminophen” followed by the per-tablet (or per-dose) amounts, such as:
- “5 mg/325 mg” meaning 5 mg hydrocodone and 325 mg acetaminophen per tablet.
If the product is liquid, the label will show hydrocodone and acetaminophen per mL instead of per tablet.
Are there any “extra strength” acetaminophen limits to watch?
Yes. Because acetaminophen is present in every hydrocodone/acetaminophen tablet, patients need to avoid doubling up on acetaminophen from other products (cold/flu meds, pain relievers, etc.). Total daily acetaminophen intake can become excessive if multiple acetaminophen-containing medicines are taken together.
What if my strength doesn’t match what’s listed online?
Different brands and formulations can exist (for example, different tablet strengths or liquid concentrations). The only accurate way to confirm is what your specific prescription bottle or packaging states (the exact mg amounts per tablet or per mL).
