REPORT

There are no generics on the market for Oxycontin, it is a time released formulation of Oxycodone and is only available, now, as the name brand.

The ones with the OC marking were the original product, manufactured by Purdue and were also the name brand. Pharmacies were permitted to sell them, until their stocks were depleted, then they had no choice but to provide the new product, because Purdue has stopped manufacturing the original.

There have, however, been many complaints about the new formulation not working as well for people and that it can cause unusual side effects. If this is a problem you are experiencing, I strongly encourage you to report it to both Purdue and the FDA at the following numbers:


Purdue Pharma number for drug safety/medication issues:

888.726.7535


FDA MedWatch number:

800-332-1088

And getting a defensive, accusatory attitude with your doctor or pharmacy is a red flag that will make them think you are a drug seeker and is not the proper approach if you really want help for your pain issues.

Are there any other questions or comments?

Re: Verwon (# 1)

Hi Verwon,
Now there are generic oxycodone ERs on the market. Medicare will only pay for prand name, but I am willing to pay cash if they aren’t made of plastc. Do you know if they are the same as the OPs? I am not trying to abuse them, I am just really having a hard time with my stomach when I take them and the pain clinic I go to insists it is either these or fentanyl patches, even though I usually take just 3, 5 mg oxycodone a day then one 10 mg oxycontin at night so I don’t wake up in pain at 4 am. The night time one is usually ok. I just can’t deal with it during the day, mainly the headache and hot, heavy, medicated feeling. But if I could even get rid of the nausea/stomach pain the rest of the side effects might be tolerable.
