If you need a stronger pill the Dr will prescribe one for you. Sounds like you're looking for a "cocktail"....which can overdose you. Then you will be dead. ...

Vicodin has a generic name which is hydrocodone with acetaminophen.
Hydrocodone comes in 3 different strengths, 5mg, 7 1/2 mg and 10 mg.
Also available are Vicodin (hydrocodone) and ibuprophen. This is called Vicoprophen.
I am an RN and we sometimes increase the doses of Vicodin (hydrocodone) from 5 to 7.5 mg or 10 mg.
I do not know of another medication which can be used with Vicodin to increase its strength other than to up the dose of hydrocodone.
Sometimes we add an anti-anxiety drug with the Vicodin such as Ativan or Alprazolam to help our patients relax.

It has dramatically enhanced effects when combined with sedatives of the benzodiazapine variety, such as valium (diazepam), xanax (alprazolam), and muscle relaxants like soma (carisprodol, mio relax). Alcohol also increases the effects and is dangerous to use here because of the paracematol content of vicodin.

I would suggest to talk to your doc about it. Ive never heard such a thing. But it almost sounds like addiction, but i don't know the whole story, or the story at all for that matter. If its for pain, and not working, call your doc. They are the ones to ask for that.

If your prescribed medication is not working, then the first think you should do is contact your doctor. I would guess you already know that, so maybe now is the time to do the right thing. Good luck.

Be careful, that drug can be addictive. And combining them is downright dangerous.
