Norco Loopy Pills

I missed writing yesterday on this
Blog
because, 

I blame it on the loopy pills prescribed by my dentist after I had two teeth pulled on Saturday.

"Norco is the brand name for the combination prescription drug acetaminophen/hydrocodone. (Which I was prescribed.) It is used to treat moderate to severe pain. Vicodin, Lorcet, and Lortab are other brand names for this combination." 

From the website everydayhealth.com

It is manufactured by 

Actavis Inc. 

Now the fun stuff about 

 Norco Pills.

"As with all prescription drugs that contain acetaminophen, (Tylenol) the FDA requires that the labels carry a "black box" warning highlighting the potential for severe liver damage, and another warning about the potential for allergic reactions. Before taking Norco, it's important to tell your doctor about any allergies you have, not only to hydrocodone and acetaminophen, but to other narcotics, such as morphine or codeine, and whether you have liver or kidney disease. Since hydrocodone can slow or stop your breathing, your doctor also needs to know about any brain disorders or head injuries, asthma, chronic disruptive pulmonary disease, sleep apnea, or seizures. Like any narcotic painkiller, hydrocodone can become addictive. You should be candid with your doctor if you've had a personal history of drug or alcohol abuse."

Pregnancy & Norco.

"Norco is in FDA Pregnancy Category C, meaning that it’s unknown if Norco can harm a developing fetus because no adequate and well-controlled studies have been carried out in pregnant women."

Of course not,

that would be stupid!

The Norco high & it is high on abuse.

"Hydrocodone, the narcotic component of Norco, makes it ripe for abuse, especially since it's easily available as a generic and is not an expensive drug. The drug can give users a feeling of euphoria that lasts several hours. Abuse of any narcotic drug, including Norco, can result in addiction, overdose, or death, especially in a child or any person using the drug without a prescription."

Norco withdrawal.

"Going cold turkey, or stopping the drug abruptly after developing a dependency on it, will likely bring on withdrawal symptoms. These usually include sweating, a runny nose, watery eyes, goose bumps, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, restlessness, and agitation."

I do not know what the big deal is about those symptoms. 

I had the same ones every time I broke up with a girlfriend! 

Since, 

I drank my liver into oblivion, 

beginning in the early 1970s thru to the late 1990s, 

and since I am allergic to aspirin, 

my liver has taken a beating from 

Tylenol. 

So, 

I am quitting the loopy pills immediately, 

and destroying the rest. 

Because;

"Hydrocodone is a narcotic, while acetaminophen is a mild painkiller. Combined, they belong to a class of drugs called opioid analgesics, which work by blocking certain nerve cell receptors in the brain."

The word 

"opioid" 

tells me the street would have a market for these pills but I am way over experimenting with any drug since I stopped playing music in rock bands, 

during the 1980s! 

My body is like a  

Temple in Nepal. 

It is sacred, 

but has a lot of damage from the earthquake of my youth!

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
