Wow my grandpa's doctor has him on vicodin, morphin and he was taking a sleeping pill Ambien. I can't understand why so I have to give him his medication or else he will over medicate himself. I took him off the Ambien completely. Whenever I take him to the hospital or something the doctors ask why he is on so much medication and I'm like "I don't know ask his doctor"..........note my grandfather only has hip and back pain from hip surgery years and years ago yet the doctor put him on both morphine and vicodin
