Suggest Treatment For Severe Back Pain

Hi, does anyone know the sodium content in Hydrcodon 10/325? I am prescribed 1 every 4 hrs for back pain. I have always had a great B/P. However it has gone up from 117/64 to 154/95. The only thing I have changed I d is the pain meds. Thank you Shirley Neiman

Hi,

I don't think the blood pressure is increased from the sodium content of Hydrocodone. It is supposed not to have sodium at all. The increased blood pressure comes from pain and as a side effect of taking Hydrocodone.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
