The pill with the imprint M367 is White, Capsule-shape and has been identified as Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone.
The combination of hydrocodone and acetaminophen is used to treat pain that is severe enough to necessitate opioid treatment and when other pain medications do not perform well enough or cannot be tolerated.
Acetaminophen is administered to patients in order to alleviate pain and bring down temperature. Long-term use does not result in the development of a dependency on the substance. When used in excessive amounts, acetaminophen has the potential to induce a number of adverse effects, including damage to the liver.
Hydrocodone belongs to the class of drugs known as narcotic analgesics (pain medicines). It works on the central nervous system (CNS) to ease pain and stop or stop coughing.
What are the uses of Pill M367?
