Oxycontin 80mg Green Tab (Page 3)

I came across some green pills that look like OC 80's but they are imprinted with APO on one side and OCD 80 on the other. Can someone please tell me what they might be?

What's with everyone freaking on here? No one was even fighting lmao. Yeah, addicts will abuse pills, addicts will abuse what they can. But whatever, no reason to be freaking on this thread when no one has been.

@Crissy, try Rexall maybe. It all depends on where you are in the country, province, or even city. You might have to do some searching before you find a pharmacy that carries them. With all of the media so focused on the criticism on oxy, from the robberies and all, much of the pharmacies are scared to stock them, or even to do a special order. So hopefully you won't have to search much.

I too am in Windsor, ON and have been prescribed oxycodone for almost 5 years do to two seriously messed up shoulders, 3 surgeries and what have you but anyhow, I am now being prescribed the new generic oxycodone CR's and can tell you that I've now had three different versions of them, the "PMS" (pharmascience inc), the "CO" (Cobalt Pharmaceuticals) and now the "APO" (Apotex) and they are ALL MUCH BETTER than the Neo's. The PMS are very similar to Neo's in shape and size and when mixed with water they too will form a gelatin like form but they do crush but keep in mind the powder will gum up in your sinuses if you attempt to insulfate them, the Cobalt ones don't and nor do the Apo ones. They are nearly the same as the good old contins. Anyhow I pay $301.70 for 400 tablets of 20mg to last 3 months, cash. All the generics are the same price and in Ontario they are under a dollar a tablet for the 20mg tablets, no matter if they're sandoz or teva or cobalt or apo or pms... they are all the same price.

The reason the PMS ones are "tamper-resistant" is so that ODSB will cover them. They will only cover controlled release oxy that has some sort of tamper proofing. The Apo's under no circumstance will be covered by OSDB.

Anyhow happy shopping! And in no way shape or form to I condone misuse or abuse of any prescription medication or any substance for that matter. Use responsibly and properly as that is what they're for!

Oh, forgot to mention, for public relations purposes most big name dispensaries will not confirm over the phone that they will order of dispense the new generics, for obvious reasons (I too called Costco and Shoppers before my first script of the new generics and they all denied but continue reading); once or If your dr prescribes you it and present you prescription they WILL IT, EVERYTIME but phone calls or even in general in-person inquiries will be told that generic extended or controlled release oxy scripts won't be filled.

All you need to do is have your dr fax your script over there or bring it in with you (whatever your dr normally does) and VOILLA, YOU'LL HAVE YOUR MEDS, 10000000% guaranteed! It's an appearence thing, or like I said a PR thing. The last thing they need is a headline in a local or national paper saying "Shopper's Enables Oxy Addicts" or something like that ... C'mon people, you're smarter than this...

Again, happy shopping and please use your medication responsibly and don't over do it, death is much worse than a little withdrawal or pain right ;)

Cheers,
IPIW

Hi InPainInWindsor, I was wondering, I'm on the 40 mg APO oxcodone, among my other meds. Apo is the only one I have tried, after the ox neos of course (so glad Perdue's patent expired, hated them and paying DOUBLE for them! You mentioned you'd tried a few of the generics, which in your opinion, did you prefer the most?

The green tablets you have are the generic oxycodone controlled released 80mg tabs by Apotex pharma. The new generic "OxyContin".

The Apotex or "APO" tablets seem to be the best or strongest for pain relief out of the three brands I've tried thus far. I've yet to try the "riva" or the "sandoz" brands yet.

Just like it would be to hang 1 innocent person to make sure you get the other guilty people. Nobody should be denied this med if it works best for your pain, addicts will just and always do find another drug to get high on. Hydromorph Contin and Opana are just as abuseable so why are they available? I hope you never have bad pain where you want to die and somebody says no you have to suffer because it is not available because others abuse it. The are over 20 different drugs that have oxycodone in them, plenty of alternatives for the abusers to choose from.

You know all this ignorance of "junkies" is horrible if the people were not selling their prescriptions than there would be no issue of addicts so instead of dumping on addicts why don't u dump on the people who are pretending to be sick and need theses and turning around selling them .they are the real PROBLEM!!!

I've had the Teva-Oxycodone CR 40's and the PMS-Oxycodone CR 60's, all generic forms are paid for by gov insurance in Quebec. The government of ontario is freaking out more than the american government did when they came up with the OP....yet australians and the UK (the UK is junky-central) still have regular OC's. Anyways, both of these generics were good.

It's much easier to be scripted Supeudol/Oxy IR's. The 20mg ones (strongest) 2 to 3 times a day covers my incredibly fkd left tmj disorder and compressed/damaged nerves near them. After years of my neurologist scripting me bulls*** like topamax and trileptal for my pain issues he finally gave me generic 40mg tevas without me even asking, here in quebec if there is a generic they will usually go straight for it, he just wrote Oxycodone CR 40 on my first script and 60 on my second which is why I got to try 2 brands. Qc government won't pay (completely) for the Neos, lol.

Rdag ive been reading your posts, sounds good. My doctor told me he was having too much problems writting the pain meds, and he told me to find a new doctor or go on methadone and i refuse too. So could you give me some doctor's names please.

@DannyD, I personally don't think anyone is on here to score stuff, and if they are, that's not a smart decision. Its a discussion forum, not a place to get stuff online.

If you ask your doctor for Pregabalin They are amazing along side the Oxycontin. Lyrica is another name for them but Disability covers this generic brand. I've been on pain management for years for a severe deteriorating disc disease and fibromyalgia. I asked for them after seeing the change in a friend. Its amazing when takin with your reg dose. I'm only taking 3x40's n 2perks for breakthru pain. It is so worth trying. Good luck. As for increased doses.....so many docs are leery (with reason) but u can ask for a pain study to be done. The specialist there wrote my doc directing him to double my dose. The clinic is on Markham Rd just north of Ellesmere on the NW corner. Big clinic. Hope this info helps
