Don't think so. Cortizone maybe not hydrocodone/vicodin.

i think it depends on the drug. some may hamper growth.

been wondering the same thing,, i take lortab 10's for shoulder(when needed) i do know that pain killers slow your body functions (metabolism,digestion,etc) but knowing that, try to take as little as possible just incase it does slow any muscle production
