What is this pill? It is white, scored on one side only, front has Endo then 602, (the E is in cursive). It is smaller than dime but bigger than pencil eraser. I did not take it, I have looked everywhere for description, no luck. I was told it is a pain medication. ## That is correct, the tablet with the marking ENDO 602 was manufactured by Endo Pharmaceuticals, and they list it as having contained 5mgs of Oxycodone, and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. NDC: 60951-0602 This tablet has now been discontinued. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. Ref: DailyMed Endocet Is there anything else I can help with? ## Endo is another name for Percocet/Roxicet, it is a narco...

I have an illness that caused extreme pain and the inability to walk. At least with pain meds I can get around. I can no longer find any pharmacy to fill my medications. Even the pharmacy that I am a long term client. I can even get it there. Please help. I am not looking forward to bed sores. ## Unfortunately, shortages are experienced almost every year. When it comes to controlled substances, such as Oxycodone, each manufacturer is only allowed to produce a certain amount per year, once they have hit that amount, they must stop manufacturing, unless they request and receive special dispensation to produce more, or until they receive their new allotted amount for the next year. The amount they are each allowed to produce of each controlled substance is based on the prior years producti...

blue pill ## I was wondering if anyone knows What other pain medication has the same inactive ingredients as brand lorcet 10/650? I'm trying to find out if Vicodin or norco brand if either have the exact INACTIVE INGREDIENTS. Lorcet has been discontinued and its the only pain med that worked for me so I thought if I could figure out which other pain med has the closest inactive ingredients since all have the same active ingredients this might help. Thanks ## I'm having the same problem!!! I don't understand why they keep messing with things that are working for people!!! First its the dye in them, now its the tylenol. If someone abused them yes l can see it hurting your liver. I would like to know how many cases they have as for their proof so they could change everyone'...

I have been taking 50 mg of Lyrica 3 xs a day for about 8 years. I understand there is finally a generic Pregabalin available. Has anyone taken the generic? I was getting my Lyrica for free through Pfizer but now that there is a generic Pfizer will no longer give me Lyrica and I will have to pay for it. ## That is normal, once the generic is available, a manufacturer will usually end their assistance program for any given medication. I was on Atacand for several years, and then had to switch, once a generic became available, and the program ended, because at that time, I was uninsured, and still couldn't afford the generic price, which was over $100 a month. The generic for Lyrica, which as you mentioned is Pregabalin, is as effective as the name brand, and has helped many people. T...

What's the difference between Morphine sulfate ER, CR, and SR. I am on Oxycontin and want to change to the generic form. ## Whats the differances between morphine sulfate er, cr, and sr. Thanks I am on oxycontin and want to change to one that has a generic, since oxy is nolonger thk Richard ## There is no difference, each abbreviation that you listed is simply a different way of denoting that the Morphine in that particular pill is in a time released formulation. ER stands for extended release, CR stands for controlled release, and SR stands for sustained release. You may see some others used, as well, such as XR, TR, LA, SA, and etc. Unfortunately, the pharmaceutical industry doesn't have any one universal abbreviation that they use to designate it, so some manufacturers base i...

I have this pill. I'm not reading it upside down. It has no manufacturer marks. It just has the letters or numbers 4847 and that's all. ## What pill shape oval size and the inprint of 4847 what are they and what are they called ## Hello Doug, Unfortunately after extensive research nothing comes up for a pill with the imprint 4847. I know that you said you weren't reading it upside down but just in case I found a white oblong pill imprinted with L484 that is reportedly identified as Acetaminophen (500mgs) which is a store brand or generic Extra Strength Tylenol. This would be an exact match to your description but only if read upside down. If you are absolutely sure that you are reading it right side up it may even be a good idea to take it into a local pharmacy and see if th...

I have been in Pain management since 2004 in California and just Moved out there to muskogee Oklahoma... unfortunately there are NO doctors here willing to treat my pain i was on a regiment of 80mg Oxycontin 2X daily 10/325mg Norcos every 4 hours and 4mg IV dilaudid as needed for breakthrough pain... i am in search of a doctor out this way who is actualluy willing to perscribe these meds... thanks ## Well, the first question I have is, how are you checking with the doctors about getting help? The reason I am asking is because if you're calling various doctor's offices and asking if they'll treat you and prescribe specific medications, then you will pretty much always get told no. When someone does that, doctor's and their staff are taught to see it as drug seeking behavi...

Can they tell in a lab test how much you are taking? ## Yes, they can. In many cases, when someone is in pain management, the doctor uses a certain mathematical formula based on the prescribing frequency, the dosage, the person's age, weight, health and etc. to figure out an estimate range that their levels should fall in. Anything that goes much higher or lower than that range alerts them to a possible problem. Learn more Oxycodone details here. Is there anything else I can help with? ## What is the mathematical formula doctors use to determine the range your levels should be in? I'm looking at results of my urine drug screen and cannot understand if the test is ok or not. The hydromorphone level in my system is 334 ng/ml and I'm on 30 mg extended release every day.

This white oblong pill has the number 10 on one side; other side is scored with a lower case “n” (NOT “m”) to left of the score line and “358” to the right of the score line. Thank you. ## I was just given these from my pharmacy the other day. They say they are Norco 10/325 but as soon as I started taking them I got sick. Upset stomach, loss of appitite. I called the pharmacy to see if anything could be done and they told me to call my doctor. Plus they don't seem to work like the brand I was taking. ## Hi Teri, Sorry to hear about your experience with these tablets... I just wanted to verify that these are listed as being generic Hydrocodone Bitartrate + Acetaminophen (10/325 mg). The manufacturer is Novel Laboratories Inc. and the pill itself ca...

I have pain issues since I had surgery where I ended up with chronic pain. My Dr. Says she thinks it comes from adhesions and scar tissue and does not me to have any more surgery it was reccomeded that I go to a pain clinic which I do. They have given me prescriptions of one oxycodone 5-325 every morning and 50 mg tramadol four times a day as needed. How addictive are these?also if a person does have withdrawal ,what actually happens that you have to deal with?I don't know much about the different pain meds. I was taking zolipin as a sleeping aid and I heard about melatonin instead so I tried that and it really does well. I no longer take the zolipin every night as most nights the melatonin does fine. Thanks ## Hello, Becky! How are you? Both Tramadol and Oxycodone are classified as...

If it's prescribed every four hours, how many times a day is it? ## If you take a dose first thing in the morning and then factor in 8 hours of sleep, that's 5 times in a day. Though technically every 4 hours covers 6 times in a 24 hour period. Using a simplified example: 8 am - wake up, take a dose 12 pm - take 2nd dose 4 pm - take 3rd dose 8 pm - take 4th dose 12 am - take 5th dose, go to sleep sleep until 8 am next day Of course the above is oversimplified. If you aren't sleeping through the night you might need a sixth dose in a 24 hour period. Something to work out with your doc. ## How many tablets are prescribed for how many days ? Every 4 hours in a 24 hour period is usually for those that just had surgery. All others that say every 4 hours usually means 4 times in a...

I placed an order with legalmeds. Iwant to know if they are honest.Has anyone had a bad or good experiance with them? ## What type of drug did you order? Was it a narcotic such as oxycontin, percocet or vicodin, lortab, lorcet? Did you have a prescription to send with the order? If it was a narcotic and you did not send a prescription or pay to have a consultation with their doctor then chances are....you have been had. ## I used then paid £210 and then the website disappeared they booked my number on the phone I was robbed ## Under federal and state laws in all 50 states. Doctors are required to have a face to face visit with patients before they can prescribe a opiate or other Schedule II drug for the first time.

I get these pills there perc 30 generics ## Hello, Are you sure you have (30 mg) percocet generics? I can't seem to find any percocets with an imprint like the one you've described. The closest match I can find is a Levotab (0.15 mg of levothyroxine) manufactured by Pecos. It is round and blue with the imprint "JSP" on one side and "520" on the other. There are two small lines on the side with the 520 imprint- one above the 2 and one below (I imagine the lines are there as a guide to help cut the pill in half). Levothyroxine, also L-thyroxine or T4, is a synthetic form of the thyroid hormone thyroxine, which is normally secreted by the follicular cells of the thyroid gland. It is typically used to treat hypothyroidism but also used to treat thyroid hormone defici...

I have found a very chalky white looking pill that has been split in half down and score, it is round and has a small number five on it and the one that I found with it is another chalky white looking pill With the score also down the middle, it is around but it has a small number six on it. They were all broken in half so it’s hard to tell. ## The highest dosage of Codeine in one tablest is 60 mg.

I have been taking 10/500mg hydrocodone for 7yrs and have been told by a lot of people that they will only have 10/325mg hydrocodone on the market in 2014 is that true? ## Hello, Shantrell! How are you? Yes, it is true. Due to the risk of liver damage or failure that can be associated with long-term use of high amounts, as well as the risk of overdose, the FDA requested that all combination prescription products that contain Acetaminophen be lowered to contain no more than 325mgs per dose. Some companies have already begun to make the change and remove products from the market that contain the higher amounts of Acetaminophen and the rest will have it completed in a just a few weeks, by the start of 2014. Is there anything else I can help with? ## what is a good replacement hydrocodone 1...

Can I take a 5 mg oxycodone 2 hours after taking two hydrocodone for a bad headache? I had gallbladder surgery and think the anesthesia gave me the headache all day. ## Have they both been prescribed for you? Sometimes these medications are taken together to help improve pain control, but you should not do so on just a whim of our own, due to the risk of overdose. The FDA also warns that they carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. Are you on any other medications? ## I took the last of my hydrocodone 10mg and when i went to pick up my prescription my doctor switched me to 30mg of roxicodone. So now should i wait until tomorrow to start them or can i take one even though i took a hydrocodone 10mg...

Thus, most will just say that they don't stock any controlled substances. To g...
