Ok. From a person who has had three teeth pulled and a broken kneecap, let me tell you that you need something stronger if the Vicodin isn't working. Make sure and tell your dentist. When the kneecap was broken, I was started on Vicodin. But, after that didn't work at the highest dosage (10 mg), they moved me up to Oxycodone. That did the trick. I am not dispensing any kind of professional medical advice here, but they usually give it in 3 dosages: 5, 7.5, and 10. Have you considered calling your doc to see if you can up the amount you are taking each dose?

I can tell you if you are sick at your stomach, it MAY be the vicodin you took. I have to have an anti-nausea drug when I take any kind of pain medicine.

Teeth can REALLY hurt. But, the kneecap was the worst pain I have ever felt.

If your doc is in tomorrow, call him!!! The medicine he prescribed isn't working. There's no reason for you to be in so much pain because his prescriptions weren't strong enough. But, he won't know unless you call.
