Zohydro

Zohydro is a prescription medication that contains hydrocodone, a powerful opioid used to treat severe pain. Unlike some other pain medications, Zohydro comes in an extended-release form, meaning it gradually releases the medication over time to provide longer-lasting relief. This is particularly useful for patients with chronic pain who require consistent pain management. However, due to the risk of addiction and potential for misuse associated with opioids, Zohydro is prescribed with caution and is closely monitored by healthcare providers.
