According to the CDC, the SDPD DAWN (drug targeting unit) and the prescription information in the PDR, opiates including Vicodin do not cause temporary memory loss.However,if you take far more tablets than prescribed you run the risk of passing out. Anterograde amnesia is far more likely when using benzodiazepines (xanax, valium, antivan) and the hypnotic class of drug know as imidazopyridines (Ambient) and Temazepam (Restori).
I reviewed this medications with my MD and read the PDR. Why I take Vicodin ES for migraines and when needed I take Restoril to get to sleep if the vicodin doesn't kill the migraine. And believe me, Restoril can cause a temporary memory loss because it happened to me. Luckily nothing bizarre happened, But I have never had that problem with Vicodin or the other pain killer they gave me when I shattered ever rib on my left side in a climbing accident. That was Percocet.
