Camber Pharmaceuticals Generic Percocet (Page 21)

Just got Camber Pharm generic Percocet at Walgreens instead of the Actavis brand. It's giving me an upset stomach and causing me to feel weird. Has anyone else had a similar reaction?
Re: Lildarlin (# 116)
I'm so confused at this point. I just know that this is not the first time I have had a bad reaction to generic drugs. Although this being one of the worst. I think if more doctors would do genetic evaluations of enzymes it would help. These diagnostics can produce your drug responses and make our medicines safer. Instead, my complaints have been ignored or I'm told, "some people do just fine on that medication". Our genetic makeups are ALL different. Who knows; maybe insurance doesn't cover something that would actually help us.
Here's the link to Crospovidone wikipedia:

A lot of so-called inert ingredients are harmful, the FDA knows it and looks the other way numerous times. They'll usually claim the amount is so small that it's irrelevant, but then a lot of these ingredients are showing up in autopsies, so how irrelevant is that? The FDA is just another part of the enormous government swamp... You take anything for a long period of time and these so-called irrelevant ingredients become very relevant!
Re: Bella (# 110)
Im allergic to iodine, dyes. The other stuff that is formaldehyde has to be taken out. No reason it should be in there at all. I cant even eat Lemon Cake or anything yellow in food. The 7.5 Camber oxycodone/326 is the dye #6 and the 10/325 with imprint is 194. A very strange looking yellow.. #10
Re: Bella (# 110)
On the front page...it says the 10/325 camber is the D@C Yellow number 10.
Re: Bella (# 111)
I read where it said the 7.5 is the Different Dye @6. The 10/325 from Camber is 10/325MG contains D&C Yellow #10. I got it off their page but they have so many things messed up who knows? Did you read where I posted what was not in it and what Is in it and they list Alcohol, animal products,.etc
Re: Bella (# 110)
Hi Bella. Thank you. However I just copied off the page of Camber and I got this... The 10/325 Oxycodone is this... Look at the bottom... Inactive Ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, croscarmellose sodium, crospovidone, microcrystalline cellulose, povidone, pregelatinized starch, and stearic acid.; 2.5/325mg contains FD&C Red #40; 5/325MG contains FD&C Blue #1; 7.5/325MG contains FD&C Yellow #6; 10/325MG contains D&C Yellow #10
OK folks,,, I know all of you are in so much pain as I am but it doesent help to add alcohol and formeldehyde to our pain meds. Here is a list of what is "not" in the ingredents and what IS in there. IM shocked... DOES NOT CONTAIN. Gluten Free, Dairy Free,Lactose Free, Whey Free,Soy Free,Rye Free, Sugar Free,Wheat free, Spelt Free, Barley Free, Rennet Free,Oats Free, Preservativies Free,... CONTAINS ALCOHOL, DYE, CORN AND ANIMAL PRODUCTS. I dont believe alot of the things it dont contain :(
Re: MeJane (# 109)
I do have a draft started to my local congressman and Senator but I have to finish it and too tired to. Plus I want all my facts together before I do. Let me say, that I agree with what you are saying. Although, I'm not sure that the doctors care and the pharmaceutical companies are the biggest contributors to political campaigns. Basically, they own the politicians.
Re: Lildarlin (# 108)
The Inactive Ingredients In Camber Percocet:
Colloidal Silicon Dioxide, Croscarmellose sodium, Crospovidone, Microcrystalline Cellulose, Povidone, Pregelatinized Starch, Stearic Acid.
5/325 MG Contains FD & C Blue #1
7.5/325 MG Contains FD & C Yellow #6
10/325 MG Contains D & C Yellow #6
This article explains the difference between FD & C and D & C...

Compare to the inactive ingredients in Actavis; The inactive ingredients are croscarmellose sodium, microcrystalline cellulose, povidone, pregelatinized corn starch, silicon dioxide and stearic acid.
Note; No dyes or Crospovidone in Actavis. I dont think the dyes help either. The Camber has both crospovidone and Povidone. Guess that means more of the filler in the Camber. So does the camber have a double dose. If so, thats not good. Seems crospovidone is iodine/formaldehyde. I want to ask the pharmacist if it is common to use crospovidone. It's my best guess thats the problem. Actavis emailed me and said their formula has not changed since oct. 2013. Of course they wouldnt say what country the ingredient came from. They just said; The country of origin for the individual ingredients is proprietary and subject to change due to business needs. All I know is I have been off the Camber and back on Actavis for 2 weeks. My throat is on fire and Im exhausted. Probably still the side effects of the Camber. I just dont know.
Re: Bella (# 99)
All of your side effect symptoms are exactly the same as mine for months now. This is VERY sad & VERY scary, giving me chills knowing they (Big Pharma) are using us as their guinea pigs, poisoning each of us who trusted in them to remedy us! Years ago in Pharma Developement testing new meds & formulas pharmaceutical companies they’d have volunteer test patients noting side effects, etc before being approved. Now they seem like sneaks & do as they wish adding poisonous fillers. Seems to me some at FDA & DEA could be on the “balance the population” pay-to-play kickback $$ payroll?!? Yes u’all, it's so hard to conceive; but it’s happening. Our many posts tell by the # of us “good patients” who have been on pain mgmt for years after all procedures for conditions have failed... surgeries, injections, specialists & now all of us having this common denominator of side effects SUDDENLY in last year or so. We cannot be naive to this. A good place to start bringing all this to light is to speak to your Dr’s & Congress; yes they are busy but get their email address, write them, phone them; pump them full of our justification research & don't be afraid to speak your voice. It's YOUR life, YOUR body & not their’s to play basketball with. Xoxo to all.
Re: Bella (# 95)
See the Activas leaves out the Crosprovidone!! Thats why the actavis didnt make us sick We all have to do something about this!
Re: Bella (# 95)
See it leaves out the Crosprovidone!! Thats why the activis didnt make us sike. We all have to do something about this!
Re: Lildarlin (# 105)
Meant activis. A post is ready to be posted and I said activisim.. Im sorry. I was comparing the two. Activis is so very much safer
Re: MeJane (# 102)
I did a search and according to the actavism,,it did not have the Crosprovidine. Only the providine. The Camber has both and its too much!! Yes we are being posioned!!
Re: MeJane (# 102)
I know! I saw that yesterday and i am so sensitive to things make from formaldehyde. I cant even have carpet in my home. I have to have hard wood floors. This must be what is making my toung, lips, and eyes swell not to mention I feel like I have a whole in my stomach. It clearly states it contains.... ALCOHOL! in the red box. Go to the Camber home page. look up the products... oxycodone/325 or what dose u take. This is before the insert. It will tell you what it dont contain like nuts, dairy... but says it contains ALCOHOL. This has to be a reason for my stomach burning... IM so upset
Re: Bella (# 99)
On top of that, I cant copy and post it here but on the Camber page of the oxycodone/apap, 10-325 it clearly states.... The things it does not have like nuts, that sort of thing but what is shocking is... it says plain as day in the red box... "contains alcohol"! who ever heard of putting alcohol in a pain pill. This is not a form of something made up.. its pure alcohol! is this why my stomach feels like it has a whole in it????
Bella (# 100) --
Omg! I just looked both of these up! It's formaldehyde!!! We are being poisoned!!! Please google search crospovidone & povidone! I believe we have a legal suit about to begin here dear ones!
Re: Lildarlin (# 94)
I've got the inactive ingredients in Camber percocet. The pharmacist sent me a pdf file from her iphone. I can't figure out how to copy and paste it; so I will have to write it out and then send it later. They use a different dye for each strength. Both the of the ingredients that we're concerned about crosprovidone and providone are in the Camber. The higher up on the list it is, means a higher strength of it. Mine are blue 5mg-325.
Re: Bella (# 95)
Thank u for that. I was just about to call my doctor, to call me in some phenergan for nausea. I can't stand it anymore. I too have had the burning in the throat at times but didn't know what it was. All I know is I've been in severe pain management and this is the first time I've ever had these problems while on this medication and for years ive taken it very responsibly for my injuries and pain. Also Rhodes generic has both of the crosprovidone and providone as well. That's why people on Rhodes are getting sick like camber.
Re: Lildarlin (# 94)
I guess both providon and crosprodone ar formaldehyde. If there is too much causing poisoning, I read the side effects and they match the problems we have. I can remember all of them but fast heartbeat, short of breath, low blood pressure (mine was way low at the pcp last monday), rash, headache, etc. What scared me too was burning in the esophagus and stomach. After being on the Actavis 9 days, I still had non stop burning in the stomach, acid reflux. This is why i got suspicious about the Actavis but that may not be the problem. I was so desperate, I started prilosec 2 days ago and my stomach feels better today. I explained this to the doctor and she just said give it more time. This is why I practice medicine myself. I had to demand an ekg. Fortunately that was ok. I just hope there is no permanent damage. Taking off for a bit. Talk to you later.
