Brief Answer:
it's a potent painkiller

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

this is a potent painkiller. It consists of two drugs, namely hydrocodone (5mg) and paracetamol (325mg). It's given for painful situations, usually when simpler drugs like paracetamol alone or NSAIDs are ineffective or contraindicated.
