- Indicated for moderate to moderately severe pain and dry painful coughing, like hydrocodone
- Duration of action in the range of 5 to 9 hours
- Doses typically start at 5 mg
- The drug is most commonly taken orally as an elixir, tablet, or capsule

Thebacon's analgesic and antitussive potency is slightly higher than that of its parent compound hydrocodone, which gives it approximately eight times the milligramme strength of codeine
