I just had my wisdom teeth pulled, and that crap didnt take away almost any of the pain.
Hydrocodone my a*s, i dont know if i'm resistent or not, but i had to take 4 Advil with it to take effect.
Is there one else out there that finds this medication ineffective?

Vicodin is not on the market in the UK so I've never tried it. Personally, I think ibuprofen is a useful analgesic, especially for dental pain.

I had five wisdom teeth pulled out at once and hydrocodone pretty much did the trick (that's right, 5!, apparently I am some sort of freak of dentistry). I certainly would have preferred something stronger, though.

I had my wisdom teeth pulled and I tricked the dr into giving me a script for percoset and Vicoden. I told him the percs made me sick so could I have something else, and then I got the Vics. Needed both bottles to dull the pain...

It doesn't do much for my pain, I have to take a few. It is great for helping me focus though.

It definitely helped some, but it was minimal. But i still would not say that i hated Vicodin/ hydrocodone. Cuz it's ohhhhhhh so nice. Oh so nice.
