I have lost a considerable amount of weight and I take about eight vicodin a day for the last 3 years and have been losing weight consistently since. I'm 6' tall and 140 lbs.

I think it does in some people. I have noticed I am not very hungry while I am on it.
You need to gain some weight!
Eat a big bowl of spaghetti tonight. :-)

Actually, if you have lost that much weight you should get checked out by your doctor.

My husband is 6'1 and 195 and he looks skinny to me. I think 140 at 6 foot is dangerous.

Hello there,

Why are you taking 8 vicodins during the day? Have you been prescribed such a big dose? I hope that you are not taking this on your own. Vicodin can be pretty dangerous, and it can cause addition as well so you must be really careful with it.

When it comes to losing weight this is absolutely normal with such big dose of vicodin. In my opinion you need to talk with your doctor as soon as possible and if you continue to lose weight you will probably have to eat supplements for gaining weight. Or maybe your doctor will decide to switch you to some other medication which is not going to influence you in this way.

8 Vics a day!  wow, I have back trouble and I currently take about 1-2 a day. It has curbed my appetite and I've lost weight. Unexpected positive side effect. If I was taking 8 a day, I probably wouldn't even be able to chew food. lol

I had a double knee replacement surgery in 2007 & to be able to stand the pain, the doctor gave me Vicodin. I started having horrible shoulder pains shoulder pains & continued to take Vicodin/Norco (Hydrocodone) and by the time I noticed it, I was losing weight; so far up to September 2015, I have lost 40 ponds, I am 6' tall. I would appreciate any help from the medical community.
