General description

Hydrocodone is a semi-synthetic opioid derived from codeine or thebaine, two naturally-occurring opiates. The drug, also known as dihydrocodeinone, is used as an analgesic to treat pain and as an antitussive for coughing or related conditions. This Certified Spiking Solution® is suitable as a starting material for calibrators or controls in GC/MS or LC/MS testing applications from pharmaceutical research and pain prescription monitoring to clinical toxicology and forensic analysis.

Application

Although hydrocodone-acetaminophen is commonly used for pain control in first-trimester abortion, the efficacy of oral opioids for decreasing pain has not been established. Our objective was to estimate the effect of hydrocodone-acetaminophen on patient pain perception during first-trimester surgical abortion.
