Yes it can! This is why you are advised when it is prescribed to you that you should not drive or operate any heavy machinery. It tends to react differently with different people, but usually it will tend to make most people drowsey!

Yes, it's almost the same as codeine. One suggestion take the vicodin with food. That way won't get an upset stomach.

VICODIN IS A BRAND NAME FOR HYDROCODONE, A NARCOTIC. A NARCOTIC OFTEN CAUSES DROWSINESS AND A FEELING OF WANTING TO SLEEP.
VICODIN SHOULD NEVER BE TAKEN WITH ALCOHOL BECAUSE OF RESPIRATORY DEPRESSION. THAT MEANS YOUR BREATHING IS SLOWED DOWN SOMETIMES SO SEVERE THAT A PERSON FAILS TO BREATHE. THE MISUSE OF VICODIN CAN KILL YOU

It can or not depends on how your body acts to pain medication. I take it alot for my knee and most of the time I get no feeling from it except to pain is gone. But if it is your first time chances are you will be asleep soon.

Not necessarily. It will make you feel extremely groggy and out of it. It has different effects on different people, but I really do not recommend taking it for any reason other than what the perscription was for.
