For real? More effective, no hepatic toxicity, more dosing flexibility (take 1 to 4 tabs safely). Did it just lose a marketing battle like lisinopril vs enalapril?

I dispense vicoprofen for one of my pts on workers comp. Not many docs even knows it exists.
It happens anyway in NY on February 23.But then it would be a c-II
First:
There are no formulations of "Pure" Hydrocodone. You can get the Hycodan generic which contains subtherpeutic amounts of an antimuscarinic to prevent IV abuse. It's really the reason there is APAP in formulations.
Secondly, to answer the OP, it's because the amount of Ibuprofen is too low to be meaningful. Remember, the OTC dose is 400mg. So what good does the 200mg do? They should either make it 7.5/400 or 5/200.

Well, Percocet is 5/325, also with a low dose of APAP. 325mg of APAP really isn't very effective either.
