Hydrocodone Yellow Norco 10 325 Availability (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

Updated

I have a prescription for the yellow norco 10 325. I've taken these for years and now I can't get them. The white ones does not help. I have Arthritis very bad and I really need to know who still carries them in the Mansfield, Arlington, Texas area. I'm 70 and these are the only ones that helps without me having to sleep my life away on the stronger pain meds that I have taken. I'm 70 so I'll probably be sleeping soon enough. SO in the mean time I would like to have my yellow norco 10 325 back.

This answer is bs. The yellow Norco have more % hydrocodone in them than the white. The white ones still contain enough hydrocodone to justify existance as an honest generic, but as I said.
This was explained to me by a registered local pharmacist.
Know your facts.

Any one tried levorphanol,

Norco isn't strong enough for me anymore

And those yellow norco were definitely stronger but I haven't seen them in years. In fact I never had a problem taking more pills until I stopped getting yellow norco and started taking white ones.

Your dr can still do 90 day supply on 1 script or write 3 30 day supplies at 1 time but laws do vary state to state somewhat like TX will not fill out of state narcotic scripts and in Ohio you must see dr every 90 days to get a script. So search laws for prescribing schedule 2 drugs in your state.

you can get more with a new script (hard copy) the dea is punishing patients with true need because of those that abuse their prescription ---- as always it easier to punish lawbiding people than punish the criminal

3 / 17/17. Detroit , Mich. Has had yellow Norco until now. So, the 70 year old man ,post dated 2014. You lied to him and the pharmaceutical that makes them lied. It's a game for sure. The white are NOT the same as the yellow.

I have had same problem, took yellow qualitest for years, worked great, less high feeling with extended pain relief just before the laws changed the pharmacy I was using stopped carrying, for about 6 mos found small owner op pharmacy that still had then they couldn't get either. After a long time maybe 8 mos I started hearing from others that people on public assistance were getting
Them, I have also heard that occasionally Target pharmacy gets them but usually runs out same day. I don't know how it is other places but in central Ca. there are pharmacies
Saying sorry we only get alloted so many no more pain patients, so now instead of just going to most convenient place you often must drive around looking & ,I live in center of 4 small towns all opposite directions so it can be a lot of driving if you go one direction. & are unable to find any there that have it.

This is not true!! Qualitest still makes them, it's just true pain sufferers are paining for the i****s who abuse and do what they shouldn't, I've taken for years and new mallinckrodts are a joke for relief and Watson whites are not as good but close, we are being lied to and pharmacists are rude with discrimination as others walk out with the brand qualitest. I always have taken what works and was productive with relief! Fact! It's all over the Internet for true sakes, and if the same why not serve the same or give option to pain sufferers what's best, same prescribed dose right? So what does it matter, maybe we should all consume state legal marijuana. Try that conclusion.

I have taken Norco for chronic pain off and on for 20 years (multiple spinal fusions, joint replacements, acute arthritis, nerve damage and migraines). Over a year ago I noticed the pills were no longer yellow but I was told they were the same. I assumed I was crazy because I noticed a BIG difference in pain relief. It takes much longer to take effect and I have intermittent bouts of itching that I never connected to the norco. I've had 9 major surgeries in just the past 12 years and the pain meds given to me pre-post surgery have also caused rampant itching. Morphiene causes me to break out in a hive-type rash and the alternative medicines do cause itching though less severe. I found a random white pill just now, searched to identify it and found these posts. THANK YOU! It's a relief to know I'm not imagining this yet I am disappointed at the lack information given by my local pharmacy. I will now seek out the yellow Norco, hoping for the best.

Marybell- Thanks for that. We, in the community of chronic pain sufferers, have never been fooled by this bait and switch scheme that has been perpetuated on the public. Anyone that has spent any amount of time with the yellow Norco can instantly tell the difference between them and these new white fake Norco. The reason for this fraudulent move is really simple. It's about the money, as usual. I spoke to my regular pharmacy here, and they explained that the heads of their chain decided to not buy any more yellow Norco because the white ones are much less to buy. They can still sell them to the customer, and/or the insurance companies, and/or Medicare and Medicaid patients for the same price as the yellow ones. Therefor, increasing their profit margins for their stockholders.

My theory is that the drug companies and their insurance company partners, are looking for ways to increase profits, due to their loss from having the new insurance laws that make them provide insurance for people with major health problems. They can no longer turn away potential customers because they have an ongoing health problem. So, a person with cancer or their 25 year old child can now be covered and they can't say anything to prevent that. So, they are willing to seek any new form of revenue they can find, even if it means redoing a popular drug and taking away or cutting way down, on the properties that make it effective, ie. codeine or codeine substitute. In other words they are frauding the government, and that means you and I, and they need to be stopped. They are pushing drugs that don't work, and they know it. Why is the FDA not doing an investigation of this? The white pills sell for a lot less because they have no pain relieving chemicals in them other then possibly some acetaminophen. A few Tylenol will give the same pain relief as these bogus pills. So, as long as people keep excepting these fake white Norco from their pharmacies, the company will keep pushing them on the public, and the American taxpayer will continue paying into Medicare and Medicaid for a medicine that does not work. So, why is there no action being taken? Someone in government needs to evaluate these pills and then make this company repay the government for all the millions they have sent the insurance companies for useless pills.

ALSO, MARYBELL, PLEASE DON'T SCREAM ON THIS SITE, IT HURTS PEOPLES EARS-lower case works good-is your's broken?

JUST FYI, AS A HEALTH CARE PROFFESSIONAL, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE IN COLOR, GENERICS HAVE DIFFERENT CHEMICALS IN THEM AND THEY DO NOT WORK THE SAME WAY, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BTWN THE WHITE ANDYELLOW ONES. THEY TELL YOU THERE IS NOT BUT TRUTH BE KNOWN, THE DIFFERENCE IS THERE, I WORK PHARMACUTICALS.

Yeah me either it's crazy isn't it? The larger towns might have them but I can't see driving to them because then I would have to spend at least a half day just to get them. And since the price of gas here is up over 3 dollars a gallon again it just wouldn't be smart.

Well, in that case, if you have the time and money to find these, I would simply do a larger search. They are out there. I get them every month, and I found them about a mile from my house. But, if I had to go all the way out of town to find these, I would simply talk to my doctor about getting something different.

The next best drug for pain is the morphine based meds. You can take a low dose of MS Contin, and have the same or better pain relief as the Norco. And, they are both in the same schedule 2 category now, so it should be nothing to change to these as our government now considers them the same level of pain relief. I can't believe all the local pharmcies no longer carry the yellow ones.

No as I said I have already done that called all the pharmacies within about 50 miles, but they started disappearing in this area before the law changed and now I can't seem to find them anywhere. There is a medical group pharmacy private for low income that gets small amounts of them but they only give them to the low income which I am not.

Wow-Your doing alot of driving for those. Is there any towns closer to you that have them? My pharmacy said to give them a few days notice before ordering them next time so they can be sure to have them. The price is higher to them to order the yellow ones. Thats why so many went with the useless white ones, their cheaper. But they don't work, and people are mad, and refusing these bogus white things. If I can't get the yellow, I'll tell my doctor, and have them put me on MS Contin, their both now in the same schedule 2 category so no difference. Both have the same laws.

I have already gone that route, about a year before the law went into effect, the chain pharmacy I was driving 20 min. One way to get them at stopped carrying the yellow ones (10/325mg) norcos and went to the white malli's. So I called around & found a small independent one that was 45 mins drive one way & switched them for about a year and a half. Then just as the law was changing a friend wanted to know where I got them so I told her. She went and they told her We are not accepting any new pain patients because supplies are limited and we want to be able to take care of the patients we have. Then they stopped being able to get them also & went to the white watsons. They also start limiting how many they gave out & right after the law changed they said we aren't going to be able to give you all of these at once but then they noticed how far I was driving and made an exception. I have had people I know tell me they had to wait 2 weeks to get theirs. Just last week a friend called me & said they took theirs down to the pharmacy and couldn't get it for 5 days. I live in a small town with 2 pharmacies but it is like that all over this area. I live in central California. So changing might not be smart right now. But if I could find them I would still want them over the others because they work the best for me.
