unfortunately i know people who abuse vicodin..it makes them feel very relaxed they take it with alcohol which is very dangerous to the liver! I would not recommend it for anyone, you can get addicted and very unhealthy. I cant even stand vicodin if i need if for pain, makes me very dizzy and sick to my stomach~

Vicodin (also called Lortab or hydrocodone+acetaminophen) is a narcotic analgesic, which means that it blocks pain receptors in the body.

In short, it relieves pain. However, it does this by acting on the opioid receptors in the body, because the drug is a derivative of opium (as is heroin). In addition to providing pain relief, it can create a sense of euphoria which is the high most people are after. Unfortunately, it also causes respiratory depression, and if too much is taken, can cause respiratory failure and death.
