Full Description.
M367 is a tablet imprint commonly associated with a prescription pain medication containing hydrocodone and acetaminophen. Hydrocodone is an opioid analgesic that acts on the brain and nervous system to reduce the sensation and emotional response to pain. Acetaminophen is a non-opioid pain reliever that enhances pain control and can also reduce fever.
This medication is generally prescribed for moderate to severe pain when an opioid analgesic is considered appropriate. Because hydrocodone is a controlled opioid medication, it carries important risks, including misuse, addiction, physical dependence, tolerance, and potentially fatal overdose. It should only be taken exactly as prescribed by a healthcare professional.
Common side effects can include sleepiness, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, constipation, dry mouth, and light-headedness. More serious effects can include dangerously slow or difficult breathing, severe sedation, confusion, allergic reactions, and loss of consciousness. The risk of respiratory depression is particularly concerning when opioids are combined with alcohol, benzodiazepines, sleeping medicines, or other central-nervous-system depressants.
Because the medication contains acetaminophen, taking excessive amounts can cause serious or potentially fatal liver damage. Patients should check other prescription and over-the-counter medicines to avoid accidentally taking additional acetaminophen.
People taking this medication should avoid driving or operating machinery if they experience drowsiness or impaired alertness. The medication should not be shared with others, even if they have similar symptoms. It should be stored securely and kept away from children and anyone for whom it was not prescribed.
Important: A pill imprint alone is not sufficient to safely determine that an unknown tablet is genuine or safe to take. If you have an M367 tablet and want to verify what it is, a pharmacist or healthcare professional should confirm its identity.
