Side Effects

I got my wisdom teeth pulled, and the doctor put me on hydrocodone. I am experiencing mood swings. Is this normal?

Hydrocodone is some heavy duty stuff. I have an ex who got addicted to it, and it made her completely insane, irrational with major mood swings when she started taking it heavily. If you've never taken it before, my guess is that you are just a little sensitive to the effects of it, and I would limit your use as much as possible. Certain medications don't agree with certain people, and while its probably not a huge concern, it just may not be a good fit for you. Feel better!

Hello,
Hydrocodone can cause changes in your mood and behavior. It can also cause anxiety and mental clouding. Prolonged use of this drug can make a person dependent on it.If the symptoms are severe or persistent contact your healthcare provider. Visit a doctor for more queries and assistance. I hope it helps.
Best wishes and regards!
