"i&#039;m taking lortab for the pain from getting my wisdom teeth out. i&#039;m really lucky that i had them because when the anesthesia wore off the pain was unbearable. since then, i&#039;ve taken one pill or maybe one and a half if the first one didn&#039;t help after an hour or so. that only has happened a couple of times though, and mostly at night. the side effects i got are (listed from most present to rare):  loopiness (like i&#039;m slightly drunk almost), extreme mood swings (i&#039;ve cried multiple times over nothing), itching (mostly on my face, not too much), constipation (only slightly though) and nausea (only the very first time i took them, and with two pills). overall, worth it. takes care of the pain."
