Interventions
Hydrocodone bitartrate extended-release tablets were administered at doses of 15, 30, 45, 60, and 90 mg orally every 12 hours. During the open-label titration period, doses were adjusted until a stable pain control was achieved. In general, the dose of hydrocodone extended release tablets could be adjusted for efficacy or tolerability, as necessary, at any time during the open-label treatment period; however, participants were required to visit the study center before increasing the dose of study drug.
