Hello,

Yes, hydrocodone is much stronger than Ibuprofen. Acetominophen is not but the combination of Hydrocodone and Acetominophen is much more stronger than Ibuprofen.

If your doctor has given you, he/she gave you after seeing you physically. Obviously, that is going to work more better. You can go for it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
