Q: Hydrocodone for pain

Hydrocodone is the only pain killer that works for me when I get migraines. Does anyone know if hydrocodone can be used while doing a medical abortion? The doctor gave me naproxen to use and I forgot to ask him about using hydrocodone for the pain. By reading some of the posts here it seems apparent that I will be having moderate pain.

You will ahve moderate to severe pain..

Most likely you will have about an hour of severe pain, followed by moderate pain, then lighter pain.

You can use hydrocodone.. I am surprised the doctor only gave you Naproxen :/

take the vicodin (hydrocodone-generic). Naproxin sodium will be useless. having had this procedure done myself, I wouln't bother with the naproxin. Just use your hydrocodone and you will be fine.
