How many did you take. Hydrocodone tablets contain acetaminophen (Tylenol) so you can effectively kill your liver with an overdose. Please seek medical attention to have an acetaminophen level drawn. There are drugs to help lower the acetaminophen level , mucomist, so that your liver can survive.

I don't know of anyway to do this without immediate medical attention even if you are not currently experiencing severe symptoms. You'd at least need to be observed while treatment is being administered as it is possible you could go into cardiac arrest, your kidneys could fail, you could pass out without knowing and choke to death while your body attempts to eject the drugs from your system.
