A Change Of Pill Number For Methocarbamol

Updated

I've been taking methocarbamol 750 mg pill number H 155 for quite awhile. Now the pill changed to v 4212 but it makes me sick. What's the difference? I use it for muscle spasms. I asked my pharmacy to not change my med. I like to see the same pill numbers. I'm afraid of change without knowing like this time around.

Hello, Cecilia! How are you?

Many people misunderstand how pharmacies work, when it comes to generic medications, most of them actually don't control which they get, at any given time. They order from a supplier/distributor and usually get whatever the cheapest one is that's available, at that time. They don't actually get to pick and choose which one they have in stock. It's done that way to help keep prices down for uninsured or underinsured people.

The one you received is manufactured by Qualitest Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 750mgs of Methocarbamol. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth.

Have you tried taking it with food, to see if that helps minimize the nausea?
