Brief Answer:
Most probably in 8hrs

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thank You for contacting HCM. My name is Dr Muhammad Ali Rauf & i will look into your problem.

I have gone through your query and would try to help you in the best possible way. Metabolism of drug varies slightly due to unique nature of every human body. Norco contains acetaminophen & hydrocodone. Duration of action for acetaminophen is 4-6hrs while that of hydrocodone is 4-8hrs. It means that there action will subside in XXXXXXX 8 hrs. Afterwards they are metabolized in liver & excreted via urine.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
