Lortab is a prescription medication that combines hydrocodone, an opioid pain reliever, and acetaminophen, a non-opioid analgesic. This combination makes Lortab effective for managing moderate to severe pain, often prescribed after surgery, for injury recovery, or for chronic pain conditions. However, due to the addictive nature of hydrocodone, Lortab is classified as a Schedule II controlled substance, which necessitates cautious handling and monitoring.
