See http://www.vicodin-addiction.com/ which contains the following comment:
Shortly after the addiction has set in the tolerance level for user slowly rises. Over the course of a month the user might start taking four to five pills a day. It will rise and rise until it is stopped. It is documented that some vicodin addicts have become so addicted to vicodin that they began taking up to a hundred pills a day. The average rate of pill popping for addicts is about ten to fifteen a day.
No matter how much vicodin you are taking you are more than likely addicted. The psychic addiction to vicodin is baffling. Right off the bat the user's mind will tell the user that he/she wants more. The user will then get more and the cycle continues.
