hydrocodone bitartrate + acetaminophen + gamma-aminobutyric acid

Hydrocodone bitartrate + acetaminophen + gamma-aminobutyric acid is an oral combination product marketed as **Theracodophen**, developed by Physician Therapeutics for the dietary management of myalgia and of pain and inflammation. The product combines hydrocodone bitartrate and acetaminophen tablets with separate capsules containing gamma-aminobutyric acid as part of a medical food formulation. Pharmacologically, hydrocodone is a small-molecule **mu-opioid receptor agonist** that provides opioid analgesia, while acetaminophen is a non-opioid analgesic and antipyretic with central pain-relieving activity; the gamma-aminobutyric acid component is presented as a nutritional or medical food ingredient rather than as an FDA-approved active pharmaceutical ingredient for these uses. Available information indicates the labeling was not approved by FDA and the product was not found by FDA to be safe and effective.
