Norcos

Norcos is a term that can refer to several different things, most commonly a type of medication or a geographical location.

In the context of pharmaceuticals, Norcos is a brand name for a prescription medication that combines hydrocodone and acetaminophen. Hydrocodone is an opioid analgesic used to relieve moderate to severe pain, while acetaminophen is a non-opioid pain reliever and fever reducer. Norcos is typically prescribed for short-term pain management following surgery or injury. Due to its opioid component, Norcos carries a risk of dependence, addiction, and serious side effects, including respiratory depression. Its use is strictly regulated, and it is only available with a doctor's prescription.
