When someone takes Vicodin, the brain stops producing chemicals like endorphins. This makes the body feel that it is unable to function without the use of the drug. A person who has become dependent upon the drug and will go into withdrawal and cravings if he or she cannot get anymore.

An addiction to Vicodin often goes unnoticed until it is very severe. A person with a severe Vicodin addiction has developed a high tolerance for the drug. He or she may be taking anywhere from 30 to 100 pills daily. For some addicts, tapering off the drug may be necessary so their body doesn't react adversely and unpredictably if taken off the drug completely. In less serious cases, the withdrawal period tends to be shorter and less uncomfortable.

Vicodin withdrawal symptoms include cold sweats, nausea, convulsions, dizziness, and delirium. These symptoms are painful to go through, but a person's body must be free of all toxins in order to begin the recovery treatment process.

Over time, the effects of Vicodin will become more noticeable and more harmful. At first the Vicodin user will have effects such as constipation, irregularity in heart functions, nausea and dizziness. As Vicodin use grows, Vicodin effects can also come in the form of hallucinations, vision problems, and constant confusion. During the last stages of Vicodin addiction, users have been known to be unable to control bodily functions and this use can sometimes result in coma or death.

Some individuals addicted to Vicodin have skin problems including hives, skin rashes, and swelling in the face. This occurs because the body is trying to rid itself of the toxins that are being put into it each day.
