my bottle of generic vicodin 10's has "hydrocodone" on it...and yes, it is very addictive, which is why almost evryone who have been on them for a length of time HAVE withdrawls when getting off them. if you have chronic pain which needs a regular dose to relieve you should ask your doc for percoDAN or one of the contins. acetometaphin is one of the worst things you can put into your body long term...

4 pills/day is the standard dose (1 every 4-6 hours) and the withdrawl is no worse than any other opiate but it will be there if not careful!
