Hydrocodone is the most frequently prescribed opioid in the U.S., found in brands like Norco and Lortab. Many people develop dependence without realizing it — what starts as a routine prescription for pain can gradually shift into something harder to control. This self-assessment can help you understand your patterns. It's grounded in DSM-5 criteria for opioid use disorder. Your answers stay completely private.
Clinical basis: Adapted from DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for opioid use disorder, applied specifically to hydrocodone — the most commonly prescribed opioid in the United States, found in Vicodin, Norco, and other formulations.
