I just relocated and have been on oxycodone for over 15 years with no issues. Just want to continue on this as it's worked with no side effects. Already had the epidural, trigger shots, tens unit, etc routes. Management is what I am looking for and an understanding Dr. Thank you. ## Hasn't your doctor given you any names of doctors in your new city? My guess is you'll be S.O.L. Doctors are all scared to death of the DEA. The CDC puts a notice out for recommendations on what the limit should be per day... these are recommendations, not laws! Doctors need to stand up for their positions and now cower down to what the government tells them to do because a bunch of people abuse drugs it doesn't mean everyone does. ## There is no way to guarantee that any doctor will prescrib...

I need a doctor that will prescribe oxycodone 30mg in New Jersey. My doctor recently took me off of 30mg oxycodone because I tested "negative" for oxycodone because I lost my prescription that month. I was seeing him for 2 years. I have a serious back problem - 4 discs are herniated and 1 disc is GONE. Most doctors just want to refer me to a orthopedic doctor to get surgery. I DONT WANT SURGERY I am too young!! If you know of a doctor in NJ that will write oxycodone 30mg please email me {edited for privacy}. Thanks! ## Hi, Frank! I'm very sorry about the problem that you're having. However, if surgery is a possible solution that would end your suffering, there is no such thing as being too young for it. It would do you far greater harm over the long term to keep taking n...

I was normally given the yellow v 3601-10/325pill & at CVS yesterday they gave me a white oblong pill with # M367 on the front also 10/325 in strength . The white oblong does not work for me as well as the yellow v pill. Why not ? I've been thru this with CVS before & even changed CVS locations just to get the yellow v pill. Now that CVS is giving me the white oblong M367. What can I do about it??? They say yellow pill will be out of stock til later. It's sooo frustrating! ## There can be slight fluctuations in the amount of the active ingredients from one generic to another. For most people the changes are insignificant and have no effect, but you may be sensitive to them. In most cases, if you wait a couple of weeks, your body will adjust to the new ones.

was getting 0xy 80s oc on one side of green pill 80 on the other now its op/80 i hear they are once again making OC/80 is this true or false ## It is false, so far Purdue has announced no plans to switch back and start manufacturing the original formula, again. It was still available, in some areas, where larger pharmacy chains and/or hospitals had laid in a large supply of it, but once they exhausted their supply, they were also forced to switch to the new formulation with the OP marking. Are you also having a problem with the new product? ## I believe they are, I just had given up on the op 80s an felt that the crushable oc 80s would never return but today I came across a pill with E 710 on one side and a 80 on the other. I looked it up and it was oxy cotin 80mg I had just got in the ...

I recieved oycontin 80 mg but instead of oc on the side it has op? Any information would help. ## This is the new version of Oxycontin, called Oxycontin OP, it has been specially designed to help prevent abuse and diversion. If someone tries to crush them to abuse the medication, it will not make a difference, they still retain their time released formulation. It still works the same as the original and carries the same risk of side effects: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and constipation.

I am used to taking the Yellow, generic 10/325 hydrocodone for a long time for chronic back pain from a car accident. They worked fine. Then I moved to LaSalle County in Illinois and they gave me white ones, three times. I know Watson was bought out by Activas. The worst white ones were from Walgreens! Does anyone know the manufacturer of the generic yellow hydrocodone / acetaminophen 10/325? And there is a BIG difference in pain relief regarding generic pain relievers! ## Unfortunately, the colors don't mean anything, so that is not enough for information for anyone to research this for you. Can you please post back with the markings on the tablets in question? That would enable someone to look into this for you. Thank you! As to possible differences, under the Hatch-Waxman Act of ...

Found a large, oblong, hot pink pill, the number 890 is on one side and 93 is one the other. What is this, please? ## what is this drug, and what is the use? ## wasthb ## I found a large oval white pill with the number 537 on one side and 93 on the other. What is it ## Hello, everyone! How are you all doing? The tablet with the 93 890 marking contained 100mgs of Propoxyphene and 650mgs of Acetaminophen, it was a generic for Darvocet. You can see here in these details, that it was discontinued in 2010 due to the risk of overdose it caused, and the fact that it could cause cardiac dangers, so the risks were found to outweigh any possible benefits it might provide. It was very mild in its pain relieving effects, anyway, so it didn't help a lot of people. Are there any other questions?

I have been taking the generic form of Orange Oblong shaped form of Norco which is hydrocodone 7.5 which was working fine until they changed it to a pill with the markings M366. These things are absolutely worthless. Does Mallinckrodt plan on going out of business soon or are they going to remove these from the pharmacies. I'm sending samples of mine to the FDA to see what's wrong with them. ## I've used Qualitest 3605 for years and I agree, the Mallinckrodt M366 are substantially inferior (bio-equivalence) for pain relief. My current Part D insurance uses Walmart Home Delivery. I've called them and complained. ## They do not work.

I have been taking Hydrocodone-Acetominophen 7.5-325 for years for degenerative disks in my back. The generic Aurobindo tablets don't work for me and make me nauseated. Applause go to: Mallinckrodt. Mallinckrodt manufactures that same prescription (white pill M366) and they are the only ones I have found that actually work with no unpleasant side effects. I really wish my pharmacy hadn't switched manufacturers. I am extremly disappointed in Aurobindo generic for Norco. The other one that didn't work was orange with a V on one side and 36|05 on the other, manufactured by Qualitest. It was garbage, just like the Aurobindo. ## I've probably just read 50 reviews on Hydrocodone 10-325's & you're the first person that actually has something good to say about Mallin...

So I have a couple pills that are supposed to be oxycodone 30mg but I'm not sure what they are. The pills are round and very dark blue, instead of the usual a 215 pills which are lighter blue or the M box 30 milligrams which are very light blue. ## I would love it if somebody could please tell me what they are. The pill again is dark blue, round, with a boxed m on one side and a 30 on the other ## It is oxycodone 30 mg. Its made outside of of country. Thats why it looks a little different from the a 215 or lighter m 30. Hope this helps ## Actually, these have been asked about on here before and from chemistry evaluations I've found, they have come up as fakes with an unidentifiable ingredient, thus taking them could be very dangerous. It doesn't seem that they are manufactur...

I've only been taking lyrica for 3 weeks. 75mg twice a day for a week then 150 mg twice a day for 2 weeks. I need back surgery and lyrica isn't something I should have been subscribed. The specialist told me to stop taking it but now I'm reading that I need to wean off. Do I still need to wean off if I've only been on it 3 weeks? The Dr. went on vacation for 3 weeks so I can't ask him ## I have been using Lyrica 200 mg twice a day in excess of a year.

I have been on 10mg oxycontin hcl for several years (for Stiff person syndrome & migraine). I take 4 or 5 per day.

The generic Watson pain med has really controlled my severe disabling pain and I was switched to another generic brand which is not working for me. Are there any pharmacies that carry this? Help. ## There is no database that lets anyone know what pharmacy carries the medication from any particular manufacturer, such information would be completely dynamic and virtually impossible to keep updated, anyway. Have you tried asking your pharmacy if they can order it back in for you? They will usually do so for regular customers, but you may have to pay any small price difference between it and the current generic, since insurance usually won't do so. ## watson 387 hydrocodone my pharmacey doesnt carry them anymore, they seem to be the only ones that help with my pain. i live in California...

what pharmacys other than walgreens carry the watson brandof norco10/325 ## Hello, Joel! How are you? I'm sorry, but there is no listing of which pharmacies carry a medication from any given manufacturer that I can refer to for you. Have you tried at your other local drug stores?

It's a light blue round pill that is the same size as a 30 mg roxy & it says W | C with the numbers 276 underneath those letters. On the back there is just a line through the middle.

spinal stenosis and pyriformus syndrome ## Lortab contains Acetaminophen and the narcotic Hydrocodone. However, there are no manufactured tablets on the market that have more than 10mgs of the Hydrocodone in them.
