How should I take Norco?

You can take NORCO orally, exactly as prescribed by your doctor. To avoid stomach upset, always take Norco with food or milk. Pain medications work best in preventing pain before it occurs. Once the pain becomes intense, the medication is not as effective in relieving it. Never take more Norco than is prescribed for you. Too much Norco could be very harmful. Buy Norco
