It is an odd drug ,for some people it does nothing for others like myself the high I got was better then both hydro or oxys . Doctors would offer me stronger stuff  I would always ask for tram instead . Just be careful. Ultracet is tram and APAP

I dont know thats why i'm asking....it is now 8 am  in N.Y. my last pill was yesterday @ 3 in the afternoon....i know when i was addicted to vic...i couldn't go more then a few hours...but like i said i dont feel any opiate feeling fr/ these.....it says 37.5 5/325 so i dont know...i never took drugs until i had a back problem...then after being hit by a truck crossing the street they put me back on vic. and percocet..my doc was going to put me on dilaudid until i researched and said no way...so i asked for alternative he gave me the ultracet...i'm so confused....but i dont have that foggy feeling like i did on the others...i really dont feel any thing other then very mild pain not as bad as it was...so maybe for me this is the answer for now until i try the accupunture next week.
