Norco Pills, the Many Risks
Involved, and
Rehabilitation.

In 2010, approximately 2.4 million
people in the US tried drugs like
Norco recreationally for the first time. 
While Norco pills have been proven to
be safe and effective for pain relief
when taken at recommended doses,
cases with side effects are always
popping up due to an ever-increasing
number of misuse cases.
Can Norco Get a User High? 
When discussing how to get high on
Norco, it helps to understand it's
mechanism of action. Is Norco an
opioid? 
Yes, Norco contains an opioid pain
reliever, hydrocodone, along with
acetaminophen.
Norco pills work by binding to mu
opioid receptors in the brain.
They weaken or block pain signals.
They also facilitate the release of feel-
good sensations, which encourages
people to use the drug more often.
 
Often, when users try to quit or
decrease the amount they are taking,
they discover how dependent their
bodies have become on this painkiller. 
After regular use, Norco’s action
greatly affects the frontal cortex,
which weakens a person’s ability to
make sound decisions and regulate
their mood.
Norco is available in different doses,
and each has its own speed of taking
effect. 
How long does Norco stay in your
system? It typically depends on the
dose and your individual metabolism
and may affect its overall efficacy. 
Drug combinations and concomitant
use of other substances like alcohol
may also heighten Norco’s euphoric
effects.
How Norco Can Make You High. 
It is possible to get high on Norco by
increasing the dosage and taking it in
ways other than its prescribed
administration. 
These are done to feel the effects of the
drug faster, as it reaches the system
more quickly by bypassing first-pass
metabolism.
Smoking:
Many people crush this drug and heat
it on a foil, then inhale. 
This offers a faster way for the drug to
take effect as it passes directly into the
bloodstream via the nose and the
lungs. 
However, binders and fillers that are
used to create the pill are inhaled too.
If done regularly, the user faces the
risk of lung disease.
Snorting:
Some people snort Norco pills.
Similar to smoking, the drug is
crushed into a powder form, and
inhaled through the nose. 
However, this method of
administration increases one’s risk of
infection and injury to the nasal
pathways, septum, and other
surrounding tissues.
Injecting:
Shooting is also popular in Norco
recreational use. As for the
preparation, shooting this drug also
starts with crushing it into a powder
form. 
This will be dissolved in water and
injected into a vein or underneath the
skin.
This method presents a greater risk of
overdose because a higher dose of the
drug is introduced and absorbed
faster by the body.
Lean:
“Lean” refers to a cocktail drink
containing Norco, an antihistamine
or cough syrup, and a beverage. Most
people use sodas and fruit juices for
flavoring. 
Drinking lean cocktails offers a faster
and longer euphoric effect, but never
without risks. Drinking too much lean
can cause excessive dizziness and
breathing problems.
What Are the Dangers of Getting
High on Norco? 
People who take Norco pills for
medical reasons are at risk of low
blood pressure, low heart rate, and
respiratory depression. 
These effects are intensified among
users who use Norco pills for
recreation or above the recommended
dosage.
Asthmatic patients or those with
other respiratory problems are often
given an over-the-counter substitute
for Norco to avoid long-term health
risks, such as pulmonary dysfunction,
which may lead to pneumonia. 
Liver damage or failure, which can be
highly fatal, is also common among
abusers.
Recreational Use of Norco and
Addiction 
Norco pills, despite being prescription
drugs, are made affordable to the
public through discounts and
coupons. 
With easy access to affordable Norco
pills, recreational use has become
common. Getting high on
prescription drugs like this is both
illegal and dangerous!
Someone who has developed a Norco
addiction needs immediate medical
intervention. One can get off Norco by
starting with abstinence. 
Unfortunately, the withdrawal
process can be difficult. To help
mediate withdrawal symptoms, one
may need guidance from a medical
health professional during
detoxification.
Aside from clinical treatment,
continuous recovery should be done
in a recovery center that offers the
best drug rehab programs. 
Therapies will help users address the
problems that caused their behaviors
and learn coping skills for long-term
sobriety.
At Haven House Recovery Center, we
approach addiction from a spiritual
perspective. Our Christ-centered
programs are in conjunction with
clinical practice guidelines. 
We help to change our residents for
the better by helping them grow
spiritually through recovery.
We strongly believe that it is
important to combine the spiritual
component with other programs like
education, individual sessions, group
morning meetings, and peer
accountability.
We also have thrift stores that offer
work therapy opportunities for our
recovering men. 
These help them learn and develop
new skills, practice discipline, value
hard work, build relationships, and
work toward a common goal. 
The aim of this program is to help
them become contributing members
of their communities as soon as they
leave the facility.
