I cannot be the only one who noticed that the primary medical pill bottles in the 6th season finalle read: Dr. Gregory House. Hydrocodone. etc.

Its the same chemical, just a different brand name, but in the case of series-reality, its what the bottle reads, so correct.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.10.73.239 (talkcontribs) 23:01, June 12, 2010

It should also be noted that Episode 24 "Both sides now" also had the pill bottle as 'Hydrocodone' but the characters refer to it as 'Vicodin' as with this episode.

If anyone wishes, I can provide screen grabs of the associated pill bottles from the show as proof. Lollocide (talk) 23:28, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hydrocodone is a generic name. Vicodin, Lortab, etc. are trade names. In the US, one could see it dispensed under any of these names, although the generic should read "Hydrocodone/APAP" to reflect the acetaminophen component. It is probably referred to as Vicodin out of force of habit, because if memory serves correctly, it was the first or most popular formulation of hydrocodone+APAP.

"...House at first thinks she has a pulmonary embolism, but soon realizes she has a fat embolism, caused by the amputation..."

I maybe wrong but AFAIK nobody tells in the episode that the fat embolism was caused by the amputation. Moreover Foreman tells to House that he shouldn't blame himself, he did everything correctly. In fact fat embolism is more often caused by closed fractures than opens. And an amputation is more like an open one. (See Fat embolism.) The woman was sentenced to death from the beginning when her leg was broken by the beam and nobody could help her. I think House was angry because he realized that he missed to consider the opportunity of fat embolism, but even if he had considered it, he could do nothing; his knowledge was useless. There are rare cases when there is no help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.249.209.157 (talk) 21:57, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
