Well, tussionex is prescribed for a cough. I really dont think u are having an overdose. You only took double the amount. It will take more for you to overdose. Have you ever taken hydrocodone before? If not, you are just feeling the effects of it then possibly. I think you are having a panic attack. It is easy to freak yourself out on medications that you are new to. It happened to me on Phentermine. I take 35 mg of hydrocodone at a time. ok, so you just took 22.5 mg of hydrocodone. if u haven't ever taken that much before. you will have a major high. you might feel itchy too. anyways u will be fine probably. i've never know anyone to overdose on that much. sleep it off. u may feel nauseous though if dont already. a lot of people get sick from hydrocodone but that is usually from the acetaminophen in it.
