The first time or two I took VIcodin, I felt a little "buzzed." It wasn't a bad thing at all though, kinda like having a glass or two of wine. Since I've been taking them for a while, I don't get that at all and they don't even make me tired anymore! I would say to definitely take one NOW if you have to work tomorrow! I think worse case, it'll make you sleepy. There are times when I take two at a time but I'd start off with just one to begin with and in an hour if the pain is still bad, then take another one as long as you don't have to drive anywhere! The Vicodin is strictly a pain pill. It won't reduce inflammation so it doesn't really help my RA any, it just dulls the pain so I can function. You might want to be sure to take it with a piece of toast, especially if your having some IBS issues as well. Vicodin can cause some C if you take too much of it but that doesn't sound like it will be an issue for you. I'm sorry your hurting so bad also right now. I DO understand. I wish it didn't take so long for the placquenil to start working. Hugs!
