Hydrocodone is often combined with other, less-powerful compounds like acetaminophen and ibuprofen. I assume for health concerns. If there is an HCL proceeding the name of the medication, it means that it contains hydrochloride, which makes the drug more water soluble and generally stable. Again, I assume for health concerns. |
