I believe it's vicodin, and it's a painkiller, and yep...people get addicted to it.
Its generic name is Hydrocodone.
This from http://www.drugs.com/vicodin.html
Hydrocodone may be habit-forming and should be used only by the person it was prescribed for. Vicodin should never be given to another person, especially someone who has a history of drug abuse or addiction. Keep the medication in a secure place where others cannot get to it.
Keep track of how many tablets have been used from each new bottle of this medicine. Hydrocodone is a drug of abuse and you should be aware if any person in the household is using this medicine improperly or without a prescription.
This medication can cause side effects that may impair your thinking or reactions. Be careful if you drive or do anything that requires you to be awake and alert.
Never take more Vicodin than is prescribed. Tell your doctor if the medicine seems to stop working as well in relieving your pain.
You may have withdrawal symptoms when you stop using this medication after using it over a long period of time. Do not stop using Vicodin suddenly without first talking to your doctor. You may need to use less and less before you stop the medication completely.
Hydrocodone is in a group of drugs called narcotic pain relievers. It is similar to codeine.
Bad idea....
