I know you can seperate the codeine from APAP in water... but can you do the same thing with vicoprofin? I know most people don't take vicoprofin, they take vicodin. But I was wondering if you can seperate the ibuprofin from the hydrocodone like you can with vicodin. It's what my doctor prescribes me for pain, so this is what I mostly take. Also- if you do extract it, will you get less of the effect of the hydrocodone than if you just took the pill?
