Brief Answer:
yes, it is the same combination of medication
Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Norco is a combination of hydrocodone and acetaminophen so if you have this available in another format then you can definitely use it, it is the same combination of medication.
There are different possible combinations of these medications (different strengths)and there are also other tablets containing these meds (acetaminophen and hydrocodone) such as vicodin, lorcet, hycet, lortab.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
