> I'm not sure that any compounding pharmacy can create a liquid hydrocodone syrup(I could be wrong).
I've had it done before, so I'm sure they can do it.

It's also there to help prevent abuse, from what I understand.
> The amount of hydrocodone required to supress cough is much lower than that required for analgesia. Your best bet for pain control would be something like lortab, although you have to watch out for how much acetaminophen you take in, given the risks of liver toxicity.
I can't take acetaminophen, ibuprofen, naproxen, aspirin, etc. Allergic to all of them -- that's why I need plain old hydrocodone.
