Liver. But I don't care i love the stuffHealth Question & Answer

Vicodin contains 2 ingredients: Hydrocodone and Acetaminophen (tylenol). If you exceed more than 4 grams of acetaminophen in a 24 hour period and do this consistently then it will damage your liver. I have heard of a few people that have needed liver transplants from taking too much acetaminophen. The most common strength of Vicodin is 5/500. (5mg of hydrocodone, 500 mg of acetaminophen) In this case do NOT take more than 8 tablets in a 24 hour period.
Hydrocodone can cause breathing problems or tightening of your airways. That's not fun.
And yes of course as you said, it is very addictive. Withdrawl symptoms are horrible as with any other drug.Health Question & Answer
