Vicodin is hydro-codone. This is not the same class of drug that Rush used.
Vicodin is a cocktail of hydrocodone and an OTC analgesic. It is the drug suspected of causing sudden hearing loss, so it seems likely Rush was taking it.
How do you know what Rush was or wasn't taking? He didn't identify the "pain medication". The housekeeper claims she supplied him with hydrocodone, oxycodone, and Vicodin.

People who use OxyCodone would not likely bother taking hydrocodone. It would be like taking an aspirin.

The cause of his hearing loss is not at issue and is well documented. It is a auto immune disorder.
