Endocet Vs Oxycodone (Page 10) (Top voted first)

I HAVE BEEN ON OXYCODONE FOR OVER 2 YEARS AND MY DRUG STORE RAN OUT AND GAVE ME ENDOCET? SAID IT WAS THE SAME THING BUT MY BODY TELLS ME THAT IT'S NOT THE SAME. HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS CHANGE?

Oh, I brought up Amneal to my pharmacist. They do not work for my mother and I don't want her getting them anymore. Qualitest, for a generic, seems to work best for her! I have to agree. Amneal is crap but they sure have not caused the horrid side effects Actavis did to me! IMO, Qualitest makes a decent oxycodone/acetaminophen ( Percocet) as well. I went back to generic Norco from them. I do not EVER want to chance what happened to me from Actavis oxy to happen again. Hydrocodone isn't the best for me but I can at least live with it!

Oxycodone is one drug. Endocet is tylonal and oxycodone It actually works faster. But you opiate receptors may want what they are used to. You body knows the difference.

I fell bad, terrible for your loss and I understand your harsh feeling towards the pain clinics. As in my case I had a car accident with 4 slipped disc and rheumatoid arthritis sevral fingers are twisted and at times I cant use my hands and feet. But in defense of pain clinics im on low dose pain meds and given drug panels every month and a pill count. Like everything else theyre good and bad in everything. God bless and peace be with you and your family

I have been on endocet 10/325 for over 10 years now. I rx'd 2 every 6 hours. Over a the last 5 years I have went from 220 lb to a low of 100.3 lb fully dressed. After trips to several drs, and all of them doing complete physicals no 1 could explain what was going on with me. 1 day I drove by a brand new DR's office so I thought I will stop and see this Dr. I went in and seen her and after taking my medical history ( which is quite extensive, I was in a motorcycle accident in 6/82 and broke every bone on the right side of my body, then a car accident on 1985 that I reshattered my right knee and suffered numerous permanent back injuries, to date I have had 13 corrective surgeries and I am still in a mountain of pain) well after telling the Dr that i had been on class 2 pain killers for the last 32 years she immediately came to the conclusion that the narcotics had taken my apetite away and were starting to effect my hearing and vision. She put me on a 2500 calorie high protein daily diet. That was 4 months ago. I have since cut my percocet consumption from 240 month to 90 and some days I don't take any. 4 months ago I weighed in @ 100.3 lbs. I now weigh 138 lbs. I feel much better but I continue to wonder why over the last 4 years all the Dr's I saw none of them could tell me the opiate use was at the center of my problem. Could it be they were to busy writing my scripts so I would come back to them???

Nica - I know if you go to Walgreens and ask for endocet they will order it for you they usually don't have it in stock but I have had it ordered for me many times without a problem just usually takes a few days for them to get it in - however I guess each state is different so you might have to check around to CVS and other pharmacies too. I wouldn't call them though I would go in and show them your rx because they won't give out any information over the phone.

I thought endocet was percocet? Percocet is oxycodone and so it endocet.

CVS may have Qualitest, a company owned by Endo, which manufactures Endocet. Try that and see if it helps.

Someone I know takes 7.5 perks but ran out early and was hurting pretty bad. So she took 10/325 / E712 Endocet to last the 2 days before she went to her pain doctor, but she also had a u/a and is worried that the results will come up diff. So if anyone that knows could tell me if it's the same or diff would help so much? Hoping to God for her as she been on meds for yrs and wont to be ready to look for a another doc.

CVS only gives out generic not endocet or name perc's and they won't order them either! I personally like endo's better um CVS lost my business long time ago they ate nothing but smart asses

Jim, could please elaborate on that? What do you mean when you say, 'your body knew it was different?' Was the Endocet better, as in stronger--in other words, it took your pain away better than the Oxycodone; or had the Oxycodone done a better job of handling your pain than the Endocet? Which is it?

Hi my name is Valerie and I have been taking Percocet since 2012 for my Stills disease which is a form of arthritis and I am currently still taking the Percocet but some how I went to the ER on dat before yesterday and was giving a prescription for the Percocet and I took it to a CVS to fill it and they gave me Endocet 5/325 and it is a different feeling from the Percocet which is Oxycodone. And do Endocet that I took is strong to me and they made me very very sleepy and worked on my pain

Hi Valerie! What a beautiful name! My only child, my 12 year old daughter, is Valerie! I love that name!

Anyway Valerie, with regard to your post, you only vaguely indicated what Endocet did for your pain! Do you think you could elaborate on it? Aside from making you drowsy, Valerie, do you think that the Endocet definitely worked better than Oxycodone, or about the same? I would truly appreciate knowing what you thought of it! Thank you so much!!
