What Is The Dosage Of Norco For A Dental Implantation?

My dentist left me a message that when he pulled 4 teeth he gave me Norco 5.25 or 5.325. What is the correct terminology? I wanted to get the same script and ask my periodontist to call it in as I am having a dental implant next Friday. I was going to stop in his office in the morning and I told him I would leave a message on his answering machine tonight and get the script in the morning. Both the dentist and the periodontist are in different areas.

Hi.
Thanks for the query..

Narco is a painkiller combination containing hydrocodone 5 mg and acetaminophen 325 mg.

Show the correct combination is Narco
5 / 325.

But as it is a prescription medication you should get it prescribed by your dentist or the periodontist and take it as advised..

It can be taken before and after the implant procedure to avoid pain after the treatment...

Hope this helps you..

Regards.
