Vicoprofen ( hye-droe-KOE-done and eye-byoo-PROE-fen) combination is used to relieve pain. The hydrocodone is a narcotic analgesic that acts in the central nervous system to relieve pain. If hydrocodone is used for a long time, it may become habit-forming (causing mental or physical dependence). Physical dependence may lead to withdrawal side effects when you stop taking the medicine. Since Vicoprofen combination is only used for short-term (10 days or less) relief of pain, physical dependence will probably not occur. Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used in Vicoprofen to relieve inflammation, swelling, and pain. Vicoprofen is available only with your doctor's prescription, in the following dosage form(s): Oral Tablets (U.S.)
