Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries

I can understand your problem. Vincodin is an analgesic drug that consists of Paracetamol and Hydrocodone. The drug will help you in severe hip pain. Hydrocodone is an opioid drug and the drug is commonly used in severe resistant pain. They drug is known to cause dependence and it has high abuse potential. At commonly used doses it can cause side effects like nausea, vomiting, sedation, drowsiness, constipation, dry mouth, blurred vision etc as side effects. So its use for prolonged periods of time should be avoided and the drug should be taken under proper prescription only.

Thanks, hope this helps you.
