Vicodin is a brand-name drug combination of two prescriptions: hydrocodone (a narcotic analgesic drug) and acetaminophen (a non-narcotic analgesic drug). Vicodin is available in a generic form. Hydrocodone bitartrate and acetaminophen tablets are indicated for the management of severe pain to the point of needing narcotic pain relief and that lack the drug of choice. Vicodin drugs have become a popular choice of treatment among psychologists mainly because of their effectiveness in improving the levels of stress and satisfaction of a person in different situations.
