"Narcotic" can refer to any drug that has a potential of being very addictive.\n\nNarcotics can describe totally illegal drugs, or very addictive pharmaceutical drugs.  Narcotics are the top 2 classes of drugs.\n\n-Class 1: marijuana, heroin, cocaine, ecstasy, crystal meth, crack, LSD, peyote, mescaline, opium, etc.\n>>these drugs are considered to be dangerous, and have no medical purposes.  Possessing them is prohibited.\n\n-Class 2:  Ritalin, Oxycontin, dilaudid, morphine, fentanyl, amphetamines, etc.\n>>These drugs are considered to be medically useful, but they have the potential to be very addictive.  Possessing them without a valid prescription is prohibited.\n\nSo all illegal drugs are narcotics... but not all narcotics are illegal.

OxyContin is a prescription painkiller used for moderate to high pain relief associated with injuries, bursitis, dislocation, fractures, neuralgia, arthritis, lower back pain, and pain associated with cancer.\n\nOxyContin contains oxycodone, the medication's active ingredient, in a timed-release tablet. Oxycodone products have been illicitly abused for the past 30 years.\n\nOxyContin produces opiate-like effects and is sometimes used as a substitute for heroin. Illicit uses of OxyContin include crushing the tablet and ingesting or snorting it. Most individuals who abuse this drug do so to gain euphoric effects, relieve pain, and to avoid withdrawal symptoms. Those who take the drug repeatedly can develop a tolerance or resistance to the drug's effects.

Not really the same thing.  You can safely call your pharmacy, or any pharmacy, and ask any question without telling them your name.  Do not say that you are dependent on vicodin, as they will not want to discuss this issue.\n\nYou can quit taking vicodin completely, it is not very difficult, just takes about two days.  If you stop completely, the side effects are not too bad.  Tramadol is same ass Ultram and has bad side effects, especially seizures.  You should not substitute one with another, as this will not help you to achieve your goal of decreasing dependency.\n\nHonest about this:  Try eating beef jerky in place of the pills, you will be surprised.

No, Vicodin (Acetaminophen and hydrocodone) is a Schedule 2 narcotic analgesic. \n\nTypically used for pain (lol, sorry - I'm a pharmacy tech)

I feel nauseous and grouchy as hell, I have terrible dreams, and I feel like crap the next day- But, I've never taken it for recreation, either.  Once you get addicted to morphine, the high it gives you slowly goes away, until you have to take it just to feel like a normal person, and when you dont have it you're depressed and anxious...not a safe thing to play with.

no, it is not addictive in the way some pain medications are. however, taking more will not necessarily make the pain feel much better (after a certain dose, it does not get more effective) so you should stick with the dose that was prescribed.

Yes, marijuana is a drug.\nhttp://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=drug\n\n Is marijuana a narcotic? Well that depends on how you define narcotic. If you define it as a class or schedule rating of drugs for the law, it depends what country you are in. In the US, marijuana is classed as a schedule I drug, in the same category as heroin. Some people want to have it reclassified.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_rescheduling_in_the_United_States\n\n So it is classed as a narcotic. The meanings of the word narcotic are here:\nhttp://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=narcotic\n\nIf you are asking if marijuana is harmful or addictive, the debate is ongoing. Different people and groups define addictive in different ways. Look it up. \nI have tried it in the past, wouldn't do it now.

The truth is ....the Gov....listed it that because it is a widely used herbal relaxant...and peoples ( drug dealers) make good money from it...and the Gov...has no money coming out of it that they can tax so they label it as a narcotic so they can bust you.
