Vicodin is a narcotic. Vicodin is both a medical and a legal narcotic. First, the main ingredient of Vicodin (hydrocodone) is an an opiod analgesic, or pain reliever. Second, Vicodin is scheduled as a Schedule III drug under the Controlled Substances Act, meaning that it has a medical use but can only be legally used when prescribed.
Re: Hydrocodone prescription question. I am a licensed pharmacy technician, vicodin is a schedule III drug as many opiates are. A rx for any III can have only 6 fills, I original fill and 5 refills and the original rx is only good for 6 months.
