If anyone is taking Norco, do you get really hungry? I mean like you could eat anything. Do you feel like you can't get full, and your stomach starts growling really bad?

Members shared mixed experiences about whether Norco increases appetite, with some reporting intense hunger and cravings for sweets while others experienced the opposite effect or no change at all. Several members identified that other medications they take alongside Norco, particularly steroids, Neurontin, and Lyrica, were more likely culprits for increased appetite and weight gain. A recurring theme was the individual variability in how pain medications affect each person, with members emphasizing the importance of taking Norco with food to avoid stomach upset and finding what works best for their own body.

C I'm so glad that you all have something for pain and all I have is Lyrica and ibuprofen and tramadol if I'm lucky and I've had this pain for seven years now with this new pain in my neck cuz I need steroid shots. If I only had Medical or money I might feel better too

For me Norco helps more. It sucks people frown upon Norco, do to narcotic but for me is the only thing that works. I do pray they come up with something (a pill) that would take away the agony of pain in on without Norco. I also take Gabapentin and fexeril. One pill 💊 to replace the 3 i take.

I've been on Norco for a very long time and it never makes me sick to my stomach. But being a nurse I know if it makes you sick to your stomach take it with food or a glass of milk or yogurt. Sometimes it can make people sick to their stomach
