"i was prescribed vicoprofen after i had some wisdom teeth surgically removed.  i have to admit, it worked great.  i was in some serious pain, and could tell exactly the minute it started to wear off.  but soon as i took another, the pain was gone within minutes.

i can see where it would be habit-forming, as it does give me a warm and fuzzy feeling.  kind of euphoric, i guess.  just be careful and only allow yourself to take it when you really need it.

my only complaint is... yes... it does leave you a little constipated for a day or so after you&#039;ve used it.  get yourself some dulcolax or something if you&#039;re going to be on it for any prolonged period of time."
