Hi, After 12 years of taking the blue 30's the pharmacy gave me these big white tabs. My question is why are the blue more potent than the white from Rhodes Pharm. Is it the quality of the ingredients? The brand Roxi you cant find anymore why is that? ## Generic medications are allowed to differ from the name brand in the amount of the active ingredients by as much as plus or minus 20% as decreed by the Hatch-Waxman Act of 1984. They also don't have to measure against each other, just the name brand, so some generics may be slightly stronger or weaker than another. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. The name brand is ...

I've been taking percocet 7.5/350 mg. for 3 yrs. I was recently prescribed morphine 15mg-cr and I am not getting much pain relief from the morphine. I thought and was told morphine is stronger than percocet but I got more relief from the percocet than I do from the morphine. I of course plan on telling my dr. asap but was just woundering in the meantime. ## Actually, Oxycodone is one and half times stronger than Morphine, plus the Percocet also contained Acetaminophen, which helps the Oxycodone to work better. And not every medication works for everyone that tries it, so it could just be that the Morphine isn't effective for you and you may need to switch back to Oxycodone, or Percocet. Are there any other comments or questions? ## Morphine ER is a extended release where as Perc...

I have a white oblong pill with watson 780 on it. I was told it was hydrocodone. What is it exactly? ## Hello, Morgie! How are you? Watson Pharmaceuticals actually lists this tablet as containing 1g of Sucralfate, a medication that is used to treat gastro-intestinal issues. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including dizziness, headache and bloating. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I don't know what a white oblong pill with Watson 780 on it

I changed pharmacies and now my Percocet's look different. I was getting a oval white pill with the A333 imprint and now I got a white round pill with 10 325 RP. I don't know what the differences are but I would like to know before I take them. ## It's just a different manufacturer. The ones you are getting now (RP 10/325) are better in my opinion. They are pressed hard (just like the old roxicets) and last longer. Let us know what you think! ## This tablet contains 10mgs Oxycodone, 325mgs Acetaminophen (NDC 42858-0104). Inactive Ingredients: - silicon dioxide - magnesium stearate - povidone k30 - crospovidone - corn starch - stearic acid - water Ref: DailyMed Is there anything else I can help with?

I have found three identical white round tablets. Single score on one side and on other is SK1. Roughly the size of a paracetamol tab. Any ideas? ## Since you said Paracetamol, rather than Acetaminophen, I assume you aren't in the U.S. Where are you located? This information may help me track down what is in these tablets. It isn't listed in any of our U.S. prescription drug resources. Does anyone else recognize this tablet? ## I'm in the UK ## it is a temazepam, its mostly used as a sleeper ## Definitely a temazepam tablet. I am prescribed these. They are 10mg. Wonders how you found them. They are in a blister pack so have been removed. ## Temazepam tablet 10mg ## It's a 10mg Temazepam tablets, packed by accord /almus Not Teva.

Can i take Oramorph that has been open for more than 3 months, but is still within its expiration date? I got it for my knee pains about a year ago and it just flared up again, but i don't have time to go back to the hospital as i have exams. ## I'd like to know the same as you about the date. Ours is a year or more old and opened. I'd like to know if there would be problems taking it. Does the efficiently degrade or even make the mixture stronger. Thanks. ## Given that this is a liquid formulation, it is advisable that you not take it past the expiration. Liquid medication don't last as long as solid forms, and they may actually go rancid, and could make you ill, if you take them. However, if it is within the expiration, it should still be fine to use. The FDA warns tha...

I have a round, yellow pill that has NO imprints on it other than the score to break in half. It's a brighter yellow color. I need help identifying this so I can be safe! ## If there are no imprints, then it is not a legal U.S. prescription tablet. The FDA requires them all to have unique imprints to enable their identification, in case of emergency. Thus, if there are no markings on the tablet, it is most likely some type of over the counter product. Although, there is also a chance that it could be a foreign pill. Where did you obtain this tablet? ## Sounds like an aspirin , ones you take everyday for heart Heath 72 or 82 mg ## In the mail from a company that fills prescriptions ## I got this pill from the hospital nurse who passed the morning meds ## No, it's too Big for the ...

Is there a danger or possible side effects of combining Tramadol (Qlodo) and Lortab? ## The main issue that occurs when taking them both together is compounding of some of the the side effects, such as dizziness, drowsiness, sedation, lowered heart rate, and lowered blood pressure. Ref: Tramadol and Lortab Information There is a risk of those effects becoming dangerously severe, if someone is sensitive to these medications, or if they take too much, so they should only be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor, and if any of the side effects start seeming to be severe, you should seek immediate medical attention. Are you on any other medications?

Over the past 6 months I have developed acute pain and numbness/tingling, as well as loss of strength, in both hands. I've been to 3 doctors and a specialist and they can't work out what's happening. Have tried strong painkillers like Tramadol but no relief. I'm now taking medicinal cannabis 100 (.5 mil per day), and although it has helped slightly, the pain is still chronic. Has anyone else out there had similar problems and, if so, what treatment have you had? ## Have your doctors done any imaging studies to check your spine, and joints? In many cases nerve pain like this is due to some issue with nerve damage, a slipped disc putting pressure on certain nerves, or etc. Have you ever been checked for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

How effective are the A51 blue oxycodone pills? Does it work like the mbox 30's V's Or A215??? ## Hello, Chris! How are you? Yes, this is a 30mg regular release Oxycodone tablet, equivalent to Roxicodone, just like the others you mentioned. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

I've never taken or seen methamphetamine but it has shown up on my drug screen. Can any Theraflu products cause me to fail the urine test that shows up as AMP/MAMP? Please help. ## No, if they contained it or any derivatives, they would not be able to be sold over the counter. Have you talked to your doctor about what might show up in this manner?

I am a recovering Tramadol addict of 8 yrs. Last 3 I was taking 20-25 a day. Off internet or by phone. Had a source prob in India. Would use pre-loadable credit card called PayPower. Mailed in 2-3 days via USPS. Well in May 2014 I got sick with Adnovirus fr son an somehow that messed with Tramadol. Started having palpitations an skipped heart beat. Very scary. Went to ER.

I have no insurance currently and need help paying for my Lyrica. ## Hello, Tonya! How are you? I'm very sorry that you're out of work.

Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, mood swings and weight changes. Does anyone else have any suggestions that may help? ## The company that makes Lyrica...

I have a white pill with 7.5 on one side & 357 on the other and the pill is not helping my pain. Is this a placebo for Norco 7.5/325? ## There's a white oblong pill with "n 357 7.5", that's reportedly identified as generic Acetaminophen (325mg) + Hydrocodone bitartrate (7.5mg). For verification, it's made by a company called Novel Laboratories, Inc. and carries a National Drug Code of 40032-0357.

My doctor prescribed me Oxycodone 10/325 for extreme pain. I normally take Norco 10/325 for chronic back pain. I split those in half and take half every 4 hours. I want to split these m523 oxycodone in half but there isn't a score mark like my other meds. Is it safe to split m523 pills in half? Thank you ## I don't see anything which specifically says it's an extended release tablet, so in theory it might be okay to take half at a time. But that being the case, why is there no score line? I would recommend double checking with the pharmacist as they would be able to tell you for sure. Can you please share the outcome?
