Answer 1

The brand name will remain Norco. The components in Mexico as best I can tell will be hidrocodona y acetaminofén.

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidrocodona

La hidrocodona es un opioide derivado de la codeína,

El paracetamol (DCI), también conocido como acetaminofén o acetaminofeno,

This is a quote from someone from Peru living in South Texas:

En mi experiencia, 25 años en diferentes hospitales, nunca escuche "acetaminofeno", solo "acetaminofén".

En México, el Instituto de Salud Pública usa "acetaminofén": http://redalyc.uaemex.mx/redalyc/pdf/106/10641105.pdf

Paracetamol seems to be preferred in Spain.
