Ladyjustice50, I hate to burst your bubble but today I filled my script at Walgreens and when I got home I found the Alvogen Oxycodone 10/325 brand in my sack. Beware and always ask, especially with Walgreens and CVS and Target. Their longevity and effectiveness is definitely noticeable.

Endocet is the exact equivalent of Percocet as it is made by the same drug company and is their generic. It is much cheaper than brand but reacts exactly the same way. However, in my area, since the government intervened because of acetaminophen and possible liver damage, it is impossible to find the 10/650. The 10/650 was perfectly acceptable and I have no liver damage from using it so it must be only the ones that abuse the pill that have liver problems. I have been taking it for break-through pain (Pain a pain block and patch doesn't control.) for over 15 years for a permanent injury. I also have periodic blood work to ensure my liver is okay. So I have been taking Watson generic which makes me extremely nervous and cranky. Guess I will go to the Endocet 10/325 and hope it controls my pain.

Endocet is better as it is the generic made by Percocet. Although some people like it, I have side effects of nervousness, shaking hands and grouchiness when taking Watson. Since I can't get any other brand any more in the 10/650, I guess it's Watsons or nothing in this strength. I think I am going to switch to the 10/325 if Endocet is still making this strength.

Endocet is better. It is the equivalent of brand name Percocet and is produced by whatever company that is. The fails me at this moment but I've looked it up before because this is one of my prescriptions. For a period of time, it was almost impossible to get Endocet. It is now back. I took Watson's and found that though it relieved my pain, it made my hands shake and there were vague jittery sensations and some crankiness. I don't know how it will react with your body. Personally, if you are going to take this drug, why not take the real thing which is Endoce, the absolute generic equivalent of Percocet. If you find yourself on the 10/650mg, I recommend having a liver function analysis at least every other year. In large doses, it can hurt your liver. I only take two per day, but still have the liver function analysis. Hope this helps.

They are, but I got my RX filled the other day as I request endocet & it's never been a problem but on this refill the owner of the pharmacy was like well I'm loosing money ( let's not me tell her I have passed out hundreds of flyers for them & hundreds of business cards at my orthodox & pain management & physical therapy place ) but she claimed I'm loosing money 25$ & I can't do that not even for you & having all you have done for us & the fact I give her all my business & get all my scripts filled their, she was like tell me where you got them before for my price I give you, NOT! anyways, it's all about money & what's strange is she said this many months ago, but only this past week says that I will have to pay her 30$ more in future to get the endocet. What a crock of s***, but he could give me the cheap Amneal brand, which is blah & they know that for the same $$$ as the endocet. I would take my script elsewhere & get the Watson Marked ones but as another Person wrote & it is very true, ACTAVIS makes & has bought out Watson & this is why so many stopped taking their hydrocodone which were great, they claim it's the same just w/ out the yellow dye, BULL S***! I'm a chronic pain sufferer & have a metal hip & a destroyed back & doctors want me on roxis but I don't wish to take that s***. Too addictive, I've seen good people go from normal & living their lives to trying every pharmacy in town each month to fill their script & when they finally get it filled they disappear off the earth for a month locked in their rooms on a drug induced comma, no pun intended. Sucks to go down that road, so I'm likely going to just pay the pharmacy the extra 30 bucks & stick w/ the endocet. They are a good pharmacy but being I've known them for so long & I have brought them sooo much business it bothers me a multiple million dollar making company is worries over loosing 25 dollars when they make mad money off my other mess & I buy other things from them too. Always have a back up pharmacy, just because you THINK your local mom & pop pharmacy like you & you have a good relationship w/ them trust me it's not AT ALL what it seems, rather they are worried not about all the business you bring them nor your loyalty to using them alone, BUT YOUR MONIES.. I was very upset, & thus why I know why my doctor tells me to have/pick two pharmacies & I wasn't about to give them the name, so everyone be careful, I wish I didn't have to take this stuff but w/ out it & my physical condition I would not be able to write this nor enjoy my time w/ my grandchildren & enjoy the little relief I do get from this Endocet. Some days are just so bad no medicine will work & I wish I did accept the roxis & others like today I'm ok, not ever pain free but a he'll of a lot better than stuck in bed wishing I were dead. I wish you all a better tomorrow & a pain free holiday. I'm grateful to be able to afford my meds, as I know that is a blessing within itself! Thanks & god bless!

I haven't been on here in a while because I have one local mom and pop Rx that survived this shirade of Endocet extractions due to lack of making money off that specific med. I also know just where to go for Watson 932 for less a price than Walmart but Endocet is my Rx of choice. My doctor simply writes Percocet 10/325 that way I can get whatever substitute I want. Until today I was in so much pain I sent my mom to my regular Pharmacy with the Endocet bottle so that they do not give me the Mallinkrot that they also have. She gets back with 93 Alvo gen pills! Broke my f's heart. I quickly phoned the Rx and they tells me that they just no longer carry neither Endocet nor Mallinkrot. And also that I could not bring medication back that doesn't have a seal! I demanded them to just give me back my script in exchange for this garbage because I could at least go get the Watson 932 for a month now I'm stuck with these b******!!!!!! I told the pharmacist after 20 odd years it's a shame that our relationship would have to come to a halt because of this s***ty medication. I was spending hundreds on mess per month there. His lost not mine. Guess I'll just have to tough out a month of this worthless Alvogen 230 garbage bulls*** and always handle my own pill supply reup. S***s a damn shame! Nobody else doesn't care or know what we go thru with these D grade meds. One mistake costs us the patient a whole month of pure hell! Whoever created these F's pills should be gutted while still alive and handed their own heart. This s*** is all about the profits their making off this commercial phoney not one positive patient approval rating from this waste! Like I said Mallinkrot, Amneal, & Watson make a better product. Complete fail!!!! If Endocet is finally off the market then it's Watson 932 for me.

I have taken Watson 932 for YEARS now, & never had a problem. But today, my pharmacy was completely out of them. They called the other Walgreens stores in the area, & they were also out! First time this has EVER happened to me, in all the years I've been on pain medication. I had back surgeries in the past, & still have a lot of spinal issues, from sciatica, to bone spurs, to degenerative disc disease, to herniations, to facet joint arthritis.... Legitimate need for medications. I take AS DIRECTED, & NEVER get "high". I do not support recreational drug use.

However, today, I had to use CVS. They gave me Endocet. Yellow oblong-ish pills. I didn't think TOO much of it, until I looked at the packaging. My Watson script is normally $262.00 that my insurance pays. This Endocet only cost my insurance $74!!!! I am scared that it means the Endocet is crap, & that I'm going to spend the next 4 weeks in pain ): That my holiday season is going to spent unable to get out of bed ):

If Endocet is supposedly the best generic, why is it the cheapest?

Glitter, FYI, Endocet Is Name Brand Percocet, hands down the exact same drug ! I think your pharmacy made a mistake, because Endocet is one of the most expensive generics on the market - I've been taking it for over 11 years, it is more effective than Watson brand, or any other for that matter. (More to come),.....

It was two different pharmacies. Walgreens in my area all carry Watson. I had to use CVS today. My Watson script paper always said: "INS: $262.68. PAY: $3.65". For this Endocet script from CVS it says: "INS: $74.69. PAY: $3.65". For the same exact # of pills, from the same exact doctor.

Underneath the name, it says "ENDO GEN PROD". Then underneath it says: brand names: Percocet, Tylox." So my pharmacy must have it listed as a generic. The medical assistant at my doctor's office told me it was a generic. They said that if this medication ends up not working like my normal script does, that I can bring the bottle to their office, & they will destroy the pills & give me a new script. That my insurance should cover it, because it's a different medication, that I only got because my normal was unavailable, & that it isn't working like my normal one. I hope so, because I can't afford the normal price of my Watson script.

I've found the white, round Watson pills work better than any other pills I've ever taken. I've been offered stronger drugs, in other forms, like continuous release pills or patches for the skin, but I always refused, because the Watson pills worked so well. I've been on the same exact dosage for over a year now, & it still works just as good as it did back when I switched to it.

This is only the first day of trying the Endocet, but it's not working very well at all so far. I don't have hardware pain (from the rods & screws in my lumbar spine) at the present minute, but my thoracic pain is worse today than it's been in years. The only thing I can think of that's changed is my medication.

I can't imagine why the Endocet was so cheap, compared to my Watson script. I don't know how my pharmacy would have made a mistake, because they don't hand write these things. It's all computerized, printed out.

Try roxicet 30mg if you can find a Dr and or Pharm that will prescribe and fill. Significantly more effective for acute chronic pain. Be aware, this is a strong Rx. And there's no where to go from here. Personally I've had good luck with Perc for short acting breakthrough followed by Opana or Meth for long acting. And Soma to help with muscle spasm. Diag: 4&5 lumbar stenosis with severe bulge in 4th. Still suffer from lower left hip and extremity pain. Hope this helps

Yes there is a very big difference. I've been in pain management for 18yrs. Watson has a faster hit reaction time than endoc. watson also gives the feeling that endo does not. Every pill made has its own unique difference.

Could not be in more agreement with U, p\but those kind of putzzes are the least of our issues. Not to offend, but I sometime forget that their are so many people worse off than me:( So we keep on keeping on. I got switched just of recent to an oblong pill with the stamp of A333 it Oxy 10/325. My tummy hasn't been the same, as to the Psyche play on it : Us chronic Painers have just a tad of experience in all the mind games we encounter from within, as well as all the external we try to minimize. Best to U my Friend, may our new year be less painful, allowing us any pieces of Peace we can grab. I've know idea how my wife handles me? Such a blessing within my turmoil.

God Bless, Michael ! I'd like one of my Dr's to walk in my shoes for one hour - I'd say a day, but they wouldn't know how to handle the pain ! My wife is a saint, putting up with my pain the past 23 years, she seems to be the only one who understands what I go thru daily.
Why do these pain Docs seem to know what's best for us, but don't know anything - same goes for pharmacists, they all think we are deadbeat drug heads looking for a fix ! I'm almost ready to give up, having to live on these meds is no pleasure !!

Joe G now you are speaking my language. I've posted my med schedule b4. It's a lot to deal with. But the 2 things that I am € no HAVE to be on top of are my pain meds and my headache capsules. It sux when cluster headaches are worse than widespread body pain. There are people in wheelchairs. All sorts of devices to increase mobility. But not all are in pain. But if you've ever been shot or any obvious attention makers guaranteed 120 pills. That doesn't bother me. People that say you can get your local Rx to order what you like for $30 extra or so please be thankful Endocet is no bullshhhh be thankful; they are hard to find...very I've even heard Saturday from Louisiana that they're discontinued 12/28/13. The Watsons are notoriously higher products I do not know why. And yes they have been bought out by Actavis Due To Probably People On Streets Getting Labeled As Addicts because Asking For Green Or Blue ones. Government on their a** possible case suits, so they sale the company and put out weaker products. I know Watson hydrocodone are dancing with the notorious Alvogen 230 yellow Devils. The Watson 932 Percocets I got from Louisiana are pretty descent, I'm not complaining matter of fact I'm cutting them in half. Every store same story "We only get what they give us" BU......

Money is involved! I say find a good Watson 932 10/325 or go with the 5/325 Qualitest Round pills V 4839 they are better than any other 5 mg. Just get 200 of them. Endocets, Watsons, Qualitest (Which Is The Parent Company Of Endo pharmaceutical), Then Mallinkrot. The rest is all commercialized BULL..... Only people with Serious Chronic Pain check their bag for that Alvogen or Amneal IP204 pill before Paying For anything even Walgreens. I ask pharmacists to show me what the have b4 even handing over my script. No matter how much pain I'm in I always hobble in to handle my own Percocets and Florinal#3 Watson not Lannett. I like the Qualitest Klonopin better than the Sandoz Clonazepam but I'm not gonna loose a kidney over that because Sandoz is pretty large but their 12.5 Ambien from Walmart garbage please break the 12.5 in half...Wow! Now we're playing with a full deck. I use the Winthrop US they are blue round with ZCR just like the real ones. But pharmacist neither doctors take this medicine so I keep hearing "If it didn't have the regulations in it we wouldn't be able to sale it. I made a Walmart pharmacist bedazzled when I showed her my Capsule Floricet called Geone. After they all laughed at me when my Dr wrote on the script Floricet capsule they said there's no such thing. I get plenty laughs from big pharmacist ThinkING They Know It All

Endocet 10/325 are not discontinued my Rx has confirmed. There are just drug stores who say "We only get what we can". My Rx has always carried E712. My mom just didn't take the time to care after I gave her the empty bottle, I just hope they continue to carry them and I won't involve her or anyone who thinks that they're all the same again...."let me have those round yellow 230 pills with the strange C on the back": so sad what I went thru two different months (hope that no one never has to relive what I went to~I so wanted to move to a medical marijuana State). MY Watson Rx has trouble with the 932's, even Walgreens now a days. So if Watson is your brand ask and check your sack before leaving! Some people it doesn't matter they just don't have as much sensitivity to pain as others do

my pharmacy had watson back in stock today. so happy!!!!

I was afraid I'd have nothing, since I'm allergic to endocet. (medically documented allergy) it says right on my hard script, that I'm allergic to it so I should never have to worry about accidentally ending up with that cheap garbage again.
