Short question: Is Norco 5mg/325mg safe? was created by JazzenJanzen
I saw that a side effect of Norco 5mg/325mg is lightheaded and dizziness.... which generally means to me that it's a blood thinner of some kind.
Is this a good idea if your count is low? Anyone have experience in this?

I take Norco on a regular basis. All it is is a stronger version of Vicodin, which contains acetaminophen and hydrocodone. Those two drugs are not known to cause problems with ITP, although any drug has the potential to lower counts depending on the person's sensitivity to a certain medication. It is not a blood thinner.
