When You Can’t Wait To Take Your Pills

Looks like one of our patients dropped one of his pain pills in the bathroom. Exactly how it fell on the edge of a urinal I don’t know. I do know who dropped it and lets just say he’s on the suspect list. And I did the responsible thing and disposed (by disposed I mean aimed my urine to knock it down the drain) of the pill, lest a small child thought it candy and ate it. Although if a small child ate anything off the urinal of a public bathroom I would think that child has other, more immediate problems than a stray pain pill.
Five gold stars if you know the name and strength of the medication.










hydrocodone?
Home soon?
oops, it’s 500mg. I forgot that part
I don’t know why my other comment got lost, but it said that it was hydrocodone (codine?). Am I right?!!
Will you be home in time for Christmas?
Close, it’s hydrocodone/APAP 10/325mg. 500mg of hydrocodone would be a super high dose. 2 Gold stars for getting the right drug, and knowing that hydrocodone is related to codeine.
