Lorcet addiction: Lorcet is a semi-synthetic opioid derived from codeine and thebaine, both opiates that are naturally occurring. The brand name for the combination of hydrocodone and acetaminophen, Lorcet is an analgesic and cough suppressant. Hydrocodone is prescribed in combination with acetaminophen and marketed under several generic and brand names including Vicodin, Norco and Lortab. Hydrocodone-containing products have the potential to lead to tolerance, dependence and addiction. Hydrocodone derivatives are among the most widely prescribed opiates, so it’s no wonder cases of addiction are being reported more often. Lorcet is considered a Schedule II Controlled Substance in the U.S.

Used to treat moderate to severe pain, Lorcet addiction can lead to tolerance, meaning the recommended prescribed dosage is no longer capable of treating the pain. An overdose of acetaminophen can cause liver damage so users are urged to check all medications they are taking to determine if they also contain the drug. Illegal diversion and abuse of hydrocodone-containing products has escalated in recent years. Prescription drug addiction is a big problem around the world, due in large part to the availability of the drugs through both legal and illicit means. An addiction to Lorcet can be characterized by chronic and escalating use and strong drug cravings. Addiction can be both physical and psychological in nature. An obvious sign of physical addiction is the onset of withdrawal symptoms once use is cut back or stopped suddenly. These symptoms can include agitation, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, restlessness, diarrhea, vomiting, other flu-like symptoms and involuntary leg movements.
