Question by Anon Searcher: My spouse may have taken 15-20 vicoden the past several days and refuses to go to ER – advice?
These are 5/500 Vicoden, prescribed by her doc at Kaiser (after I’d already told him she was abusing). She conceals the bottle and consumption from me but after picking up a 60 tablet bottle thursday afternoon, I found that saturday evening – it was no where to be found. I believe she took all of them, and is sleeping all day right now. I do not want to create a scene, or have an ambulance come out and her refuse them, also. What should I do? Leave her to lie in the bed she made?
To clarify: 60 tablets gone after Thu/Fr/Sat – in three days. These are 5/500 strenght tablets. I calculate 20 tables per DAY = 10,000 mg of acetaminphen per DAY.

Yeah, eventually she’s going to run out and then what? She’ll have to face the music.
Reality will start to set in tomorrow when she wants more and there are no more. What’s she going to do? Go to a different doctor? Use a different pharmacy to fill THAT prescription?
