Weed takes varying amounts depending on how much fat is in your body and how much weed you smoke, but always at least a week...generally 1 week (radioactively traceable to 1 month)! Vicodin should be totally out in 3 days!

Not really the same thing.  You can safely call your pharmacy, or any pharmacy, and ask any question without telling them your name.  Do not say that you are dependent on vicodin, as they will not want to discuss this issue.\n\nYou can quit taking vicodin completely, it is not very difficult, just takes about two days.  If you stop completely, the side effects are not too bad.  Tramadol is same ass Ultram and has bad side effects, especially seizures.  You should not substitute one with another, as this will not help you to achieve your goal of decreasing dependency.\n\nHonest about this:  Try eating beef jerky in place of the pills, you will be surprised.

xanax is for nerves , and vicodin is for pain .If it were me (which it will be in 3 weeks! ) I'd take 2 of each 1hr BEFORE takeoff , 1 of each - midflight , and 2 of each 1 hr BEFORE landing . \n Doses for 150 lb male , 4 hr flight .\nSame doses were used @ sea level with moderate euphoria being the desired  and achieved side effect . Equal amounts of water and cranberry juice were used during and afterward to cleanse the body of excess chemicals .

It is a narcotic pain reliever.   It is used to treat moderate to severe pain.  It's hard to say why you needed it.\n\nhttp://medications.com/go/se/Propoxy seems to say that it's not very good at doing anything beyond making you high.  \n\nMedications generally have an expiration date 1 year after their dispense date.\n\nhttp://www.peoplespharmacy.org/archives/pharmacy_qa/did_heartburn_drug_trigger_ice_craving.asp  (scroll down to the bottom of the page.)

Yes, but if taken as directed it shouldn't be a problem. Acetaminophen is the active ingredient in tylenol. It's also is what the majority of vicodin is, although the active ingredient in vicodin is hydrocodone, there's a hundred times as much acetominophen in each pill as hydrocodone. The vicodin most prescribed is 500mg of acetaminophen and 5mg of hydrocodone. People who overuse vicodin often have health problems more related to acetopminophen than the opiate, because it's bad for the liver and stomach. But I'm talking people that pop 2000-5000 mg a day, regular strength tylenol is 325mg and is taken for a short period of time.

It used to be prescribed for anxiety, insomnia, phobias, social fears.  It was not the most commonly used truth serum-that was chloral nitrate.  With the advent of benzodiazepines (like valium), which doesnt carry the high risk of death from overdose, NaPent is now only used for surgical anesthesia.  It wasnt very effective as a truth serum, because its pretty easy to resist when you go down knowing you shouldnt talk-its not a lot different as far as a truth serum than alcohol.

Vicodin is a Narcotic painkiller, and gabapentin is the generic for Neurontin, which is an anti-seizure drug.  You can't get it without a prescription, and it is dangerous to take it without one.  Your friend could get into trouble for dispensing drugs without a license, too!
