Buy Lorcet Online

What is Lorcet?

Lorcet is a combination medication form containing hydrocodone and acetaminophen (paracetamol) to relieve moderate to severe pain. It has an opioid medicine and may be habit-forming.

Hydrocodone is an opioid pain relaxer, and acetaminophen is a non-opioid pain reliever. Hydrocodone functions in the brain to change how your body senses and reacts to pain. Acetaminophen can also help in fever reduction.

Important Information

You should avoid taking Lorcet if you are allergic to hydrocodone or acetaminophen or have any stomach or intestinal blockage, asthma (severe), or breathing problems.

Older adults, malnourished, or debilitated people who also have a wasting syndrome or chronic breathing disorders are more likely to face severe breathing problems due to this medicine.

Opioid medication like Lorcet can slow down or stop your breathing, and death may occur. Your attendant should give naloxone to you and get urgent medical help if you have blue-colored lips, slow breathing with long pauses, or if you are hard to wake up.

What to know before taking Lorcet?

Tell your medical healthcare professional if you have ever had:

• Liver disease;
• Sleep apnea, breathing problems;
• Kidney disease;
• A drug or alcohol addiction;
• Urination problems;
• A head injury or seizures; or
• Problems with your pancreas, thyroid, or gallbladder

If you use an opioid medication like Lorcet during pregnancy, you could give birth to a drug-dependent baby. It can result in life-threatening withdrawal symptoms in the newborn baby. In addition, opioid-dependent babies may need medical treatment for several weeks.

Ask a doctor before taking Lorcet (or any other opioid medication) if you are breastfeeding. Also, inform the doctor if you notice slow breathing or severe drowsiness in the nursing baby.
