Hey I have alot of Info on pharmaceuticals. Figured id let you in on some Info! Even though this won't make you any happier the REASON that the pharmacies aren't carrying Watsons anymore is because they are discontinued. Once Actavis bought Watson they picked which drug they would prefer so with the oxycodone 2.5s, 7.5, 10 mg they are now using Actavis A332 A333 A331. Although I believe they have chose the 5mg Actavis brand as well I have not heard or seen any. My source is the company themself and street research as well as internet.

Wharf rat.....theyre not the same medications....endocet is generic Percocet, not brand Percocet. .....your body was going through withdrawals. When u change from a pain med that u have been taking awhile to a different one, ur body goes through withdrawals. Thats why u suffered that one month then all was good after. Hope that helped.

Matt...the news on Watson's being bought out by Actavis n them replacing the Watson's Percocet with the Actavis brand is old news.......if anyone doesnt know this by now, its because theyre not reading thru these threads thoroughly. ...n if someone is posting info that has been brought up already, its because they're not reading through the threads thoroughly, which is what makes some of these threads longer then necessary. ..repetitive info because people dont take the time to read all the posts.....more n more people would find the answers they seek or info that would help them if they would just read through the posts. I hope whoever is reading this n new to a thread, this one or another, they read all the posts in the thread before they ask a question or add what they know.

Jay.....because we take pain meds doesn't mean we're high or reaching euphoria as u put it. Ive never felt euphoric when I take my meds....NEVER! And the same goes for many here. My meds help take the severity of my pain down a few notches...not completely. ....but enough so im able to move without crying.....these meds are controlled by our doctors so taking more than prescribed wouldn't make any sense since we would be out of meds before our doctor will give us another script and we would be crippled with pain. I dont know if your a pain management patient. ..or familiar with how our meds are given but Dr s will only prescribe enough meds for 30 days....u have to see him again to get another script for another 30 days...etc..etc.. pharmacies will only refill ur script when ur coming up on ur 30th day so they wont give u more meds than prescribed by ur dr either so when ur in pain management. ...U MAKE SURE ur meds last u that 30 days so u don't do without! Now im no fool...I know there are those out here who r abusers which make them illegal users....but they're few n easily spotted. Theres other sites that have blogs for people who use this or that recreationally n discuss it openly among each other (as crazy as that sounds) so they dont really need our blog....its not like we re going to tell them how to feel high or whatever. ..we are here to help each other with legit issues and questions. I hope that made sense n maybe opened ur eyes a little to see that most of us dont and cant abuse or feel high with what we're given.

Hello Wharf Rat~ I was one of the ones on the perfect Watson 10/325 oxycodone (for my pain & no side effects). Since then in er with activis, & vicodin made me want to sleep, so I just started endocet by endo (not qualitest). My new pain management doc (we moved) also changed it to 5/325! God, unless I take 2 at a time, it doesn't help my pain! I will say that taking 2 of the 5/325 LASTS longer than taking 1 of the vicodin 10/300 by about 2 hours, but the problem is he only prescribed 2 a day, so I don't sleep at night, & am in horrific pain the rest of the day. I don't know if I should ask him for more a day, or get the "pure" as you say oxycodone & take a little tylenol. If I let him know all the problems I have had with the inactive ingredients, maybe he would write it for percocet dispensed as written. I don't know what to ask him for other than more. I am not getting really bad side effects (except horrible nightmares the little bit I can sleep), but with most drugs, that is probably normal. What do you think?

Pain in Chicago!

Again...please take the time to read through the threads.

Watson was bought out by Activis. You would've read this multiple times in comments/responses prior to mine. The final sale took place about a year ago, as I opened my prescription and saw white oblong pills A333, which seems to bring most of us to the consensus that there is a variation in the active ingredient. Very tough pill to swallow (no pun intended). The pain relief for me, was not even remotely close to Watson brand. Personally, Watson 932 (10mg/325) worked extremely well for me. As soon as the company changed hands, the formula definitely changed (FDA - 20% variation in active ingredient allowed). Since then, I've tried 3 different manufacturers of generic 10/325 including:

Amneal (IP204 imprint)
Activis (A333 imprint)
Mallinckro (M523 imprint)

I am guessing that there are many chronic pain patients that would agree that these unfortunately, are not nearly the same as the Watson brand. If someone is able to afford name brand Percoset...these would definitely be the best option. I am certain that if Watson were magically able to re-establish themselves, and use the same formula as they have in the past, the 90% (if not more) of chronic pain patients would request Watson over any of the 3 generics I've listed above. The others hardly seem worth taking. Minimal relief.

***If anyone has any info (and/or feedback) on Endocet, I would greatly appreciate a reply, as I would like to locate this or find out what pharmacies will order this for you, if requested. From what I've read, Endocet seems to be the next best thing to the discontinued Watson tablet***

Goodluck to everyone in managing your pain. It's terrible that it has come to this. Very concerning.

I have been prescribed endocet 10/325 for years and have had problems filling my script over the past 4 months. The script is do not substitute. . The pharmacy says its " discontinued" and gave me these Alvogen replacement that do NOTHING and make me feel sick. Is there anything generic close to the endocet that I can get? I can't take these Alvogen. Please and thank you.

Endocet so the closest thing to Percocet you will find, believe me, I e been injured for the past 20 years and have tried them all. Some CVS stores will order them for you if you explain to them that it's a medical thing. I have a Mom & Pop pharmacy in town that keeps it in stock for me - nothing else works, or gives me a serious GERD ISSUE ,

things have gone Down hill since they took Watson off the market, oxycodone I could be in a happy mood with the white ones, and get more stuff done with the tellow ones, oxycodne 10/325 the 10mg added/imediate release tears up the stomach justt breaking off a peace of the 30mg. does not hurt the stromach as long as I eat with it. trying to amplyfye the effect with a couple of mg. of valum, yes they do that in the hospital. My apolgies the side effect of valum is crankingness. be more possitive on the next letter

Endo 712 is the best perc 10 in my opinion. When you get up on the morning, take one with a cup of coffee to really kick it in. I had these when I had knee surgery and I have tried the Watson and about every other perc. These are by far the best made.

I've taken both the Actavis generic and Endocet 10/325 from Endo labs. Both don't work near as well as the brand name which is made by Endo labs, but costs alot more and works about 25% better. About 6 years ago the Endocet 10/325 started to not work as well for me. I tried the Mallinkrodt generic which was completely worthless, zero pain reduction.
After the weakend state of the 10/325 Percocet generics I got my doctor to switch me to Roxicodone 15mg for my breakthrough pain medication and used the Actavis 15mg generic which worked alot better than any Percocet 10/325 generic. Not because it was 5mg more of the active ingredient, but because the quality of the active ingredient was alot better.
You can read all over MedsChat forum about all the different opiates having a weakend state and not working on pain anywhere near as well as they did years ago. The government has gotten big pharma to some how tamper with the way all opiates are made now so they can't be abused as easily, but the down side to that is they don't work on your pain very well at all anymore. Another Odumbo gift to suffering Americans with severe debilitating chronic pain because drug abusers are more important than suffering human beings in Odumbo world. Oh!, and don't forget you're going to be prescribed less of these inferior opiate analgesics because of Odumbo too...

The endo 712 is the best. I have tried everything for chronic military injuries and arthritis. The Watson 932 were probably 2nd best. My pain was so severe, I finally had to go to a pain clinic to address my pain level. The Oxycontin 30er is by far the best if you are in real pain with fewest side effects. It's nice to take one pill every 10-12 hours and be pain free. Side effects from morphine and oxymoron were to much for me. However, the Oxycontin are expensive, but for the pain I am in, it's worth the cost. I do get roxy 30s for break through pain, but I almost don't need them very often.
