Watson Lortab Formula Change (Page 11)

Does anyone know what Watson did or why they changed their formula for Lortab 10/500? It used to be blue and when I picked up my refill today they are now white. I still have a few days of my blue left but I swapped a few so I can try the white. I'm waiting for it to start working and I took it over 2 hours ago. My rx is 1-2 every 3 hours not to exceed 7 in a day. (my pm dr wants me on a stronger med but anything above hydrocodone makes me euphoric and I can't function) The blue color lortab starts to work within 15 mins. I took my first white color lortab 2 hours ago, waited an hour and took the 2nd and nothing. I will wait 30 mins longer and switch back to the blue until I run out. This sucks. I'm a full time law student, disabled, single mom and can't use my dominate arm because the pain level is too high. (My shoulder dislocates every time I move my arm, even after 3 surgeries the last one being a bone transplant to the shoulder.) Sorry about any typos, I am typing with my left hand and don't have the coordination in this arm/hand that I do with my right. Thank you for any information that you can provide me.

Any hydrocodone/APAP combination is no longer available in 500 mg acetaminophen. The FDA lowered it to no more than 325mg because of liver and kidney damage. Vicodin only has 300 mg. I have major back problems coupled with fibromyalgia. I take Mallinckrodt brand because eith the filler or binder tears up my stomach. I actually would rather live in constant pain than live taking Watson brand. Hope's this helps some
