REPORT

Well first Walgreens visit I got generic Oxycontin so it's def true but I got the Mallinckollit kind very similar to the old oval 80s! Def better then the ops so I'm somewhat happy! Better luck nexttime hopefully! Thanks so much Irene for the info! I Definitley feel a little better today! My pain Dr said that maybe 1-2 people out of all the people at my pain management office are having problems with these new ops! Hopefully the FDA and Purdue realize this is NOT a good medication! They haven't asked yet but all the op releif complaints are being documented! Hopefully their concerned with the info! Everyone feel better and Godbless!

I would like to know if my Oncologist has to add anything to my prescription of Oxycontin 80mg to be able to receive the OCs and not the OPs? I received, without realizing it, Oxycontin 80mg OP on my Prescription in August at CVS, with Cancer Chronic Pain and metastasized, no cure, the OPs did nothing but make me have very bad side effects, I called my Oncologist, then last month when I went and received 80mg OC ( said OP on description bottle) I thought problem would or had been fixed, that I would only be getting the OCs and hope this will be true when I have them filled, but reading all that I have read, I don't want to wait until last minute only to find out the reason I received the 80OCs from CVS last month was end of stock. I do not and can not put this stress on my body again! Just thinking of getting the OPs again makes me so nervous I start hurting so bad, so tense guess bone pain can't take being tense and with my Chronic pain, I don't know what to do. I go for Chemo tomorrow and will stop by Walgreens, and CVS to see what I have to do. Its so hard after Chemo to do anything, but after that month of the OPs, I can not risk getting them ever again! I think this is awful what they have done, and without telling me, looks like taking the 3 Chemos I take and have been told that with Chronic Cancer Pain, we would be hurt the most because that's the only pain medicine that works the BEST on Cancer pain. Not that anyone else is any less important and their pain problems, just I have a dease with no cure and really can not take all this, and do not have the strength to run around trying to find this and I should not have to. What little life I have left, please dear God someone help me have somewhat pain relief. I also take 10mg Oxycodone for breakthru and anziety medication, so I will close by saying good luck to us all, God Bless all and thanks for any suggestions. Will talk to Oncologist also.

There is no generic Oxycontin, to prevent abuse and diversion, Oxycontin is only available as the brand name made by Purdue.

Ethex does make a generic of the regular release formulation, the name brand for it would be Roxicodone.

It contains the same active ingredient, but it is not time released and it is not available in an 80mg dosage.

Do you have any questions?

i didn't ask if it exists or not,,,IT EXISTS. ethex is paying royalties to purdue to distribute the old formula of ocs. apotex is doing the same thing, i'm wondering where BESIDES WALGREENS can you get these GENERIC OXYS? THAT IS THE QUESTION. THEY DO EXIST AND THEY ARE ONLY $10.41 EACH. THEY ARE NOT LEFT OVER. THE PATENT EXPIRED ON THE 20'S, 40'S AND 80'S MAKING IT LEGAL FOR OTHERS TO DISTRIBUTE AND PURDUE STILL BANKS. YOU DIDN'T THINK A COMPANY AS LARGE AS PURDUE WOULD HAVE COMMITTED SUICIDE DID YOU?

oxycontin: listen, first you have to go there. walgreens esp. will not tell you anything over phone. next, u have to get someone to listen to you. if they don't have, ask them to order. i'd reccoment going in before your appt and if they don't tell them to order BUT u have to get someone to listen to what you are saying and CHECK TO SEE IF THEY HAVE. These techs are so LAZY they will just say no WITHOUT looking.

Verwen you are wrong I thought the same thing! Almost ALL Walgreens have generic Oxycontin and it's the old purdue Oxycontin! I couldn't beleive it! I went to my local Walgreens after I filled mine and got Mallinkot Ocs and they had the old ones! I should have been more patient! Mets all I can tell you is go to your local Walgreens and try! I swear this is TRUE! I don't even consider Ops Oxycontin they suck for pain releif! I'm also a cancer patient and wish you the best Mets be strong and take the trip it's well worth it ;-) goodluck and Godbless!

This is an informative forum for this subject. I'd like to pass on some info that may be helpful to Chronic Pain Patients who also have Celiac Disease. I had to get very sick on a certain brand of Oxycodone before I thought to call the pharmaceutical company and double check if this med was gluten free. I knew from the way I was feeling and the symptoms I was having that I'd gotten gluten from 'something'. And since I hadn't eaten any food all week, it HAD to be my pain med. Long story short......it was! Until then I'd never thought to check my meds for 'gluten'. Most pharmacists don't know this info, tho, and you must call the pharmaceutical company directly to find out. (You can google the pharmaceutical company name for that info). I've had only one pharmaceutical rep tell me 'you'll need to call your physician for that information'. Hope this is helpful for those who are Celiacs AND Chronic Pain Patients.

I believe they all do but it's hard to get cooperation sometimes! Go in and say I called 1800walgreens and even print off the Walgreens site that they carry it! I never thought it true but so TRUE it is ;-) goodluck and feel better! Those Ops are NOT Oxycontin period!

With all the lawsuits going on right now, what I know is Walgreens, CVS and Rite Aide chose to be seperate in this lawsuit and so maybe that's the problem not getting the Generic OCs, which is cheaper in price for my Medicaide to pay, and I wish Medicade would step in and tell Purdue and anyone else out there, this new drug, OPs, is not working the way the OCs do, and you can read for yourself about what is going on, I am not an abuser and I do not judge others, so if you get or have your prescription, like myself, when one is out of what I am trying to get filled, I go to CVS first, then Walgreens and have for the past few years with Chronic Cancer Pain, No Cure, so just go to the drugstore, ask what they have and get your answer there. I know this is not what u want to hear, but being so sick and in so much pain, I can lead you to some information that can answer this for you. I will post at end of this, I have to thank all for your concern and Prayers concerning my condition (cancer stgIV), I just hope and Pray God will see that Good will overcome Evil and clear up all this concern. I myself am going to take what I am given, if Purdue says, or whoever may be, that this is the same drug, just not abusable, and few extra ingredients, that may very well hurt me, well what will b, will b, I trust God and even tho this OP brand does have bad effects and does not even compare to what my Generic OCs were helping do for me, well just know, you can't lie to your doctor and he KNOWS all, at least my Oncologist knows me and the test do not lie. Hope you all understand what I'm trying to say, had chemo and don't feel so good right now, just Love the Lord, trust in Him and Pray. Love and God Bless you all. For your info, please go to these web sites, see what you think. Hope this get posted! http:/­/­www.law360.com/­company_articles/­3421 and Law360 says Purdue Dominates 2010 FCA Payouts for 2010, http:/­/­productliability.law360.com/­articles/­204030 and they were motavated because they CARE. Enough is enough for me. I have a life to try and live and they will not take me down, I have God on my side! Again, much Love and God Bless.

Good will Overcome Evil, if you believe, trust and obey Gods words, He has Blessed me in giving me two years, when I only had a few months with the Cancer I have, Please don't give up. I hope And Pray, that all who is in need will receive a Blessing from God today. Please say a Prayer, believe, ask and you will receive. God is our answer! I love you all and hope this help eases your worries, as it has mine. I never know when my Chemo will stop working and Cancer will again take over, but we all do not know what today or tomorrow will bring, just take you Prescription to the drug store, after 2 yrs mine knows me, ask for the Generic OCs, if they do not, or can not fill this ( I usually go to CVS first, if they don't have my medicine in stock, I use Walgreens) then go to another drug store. I myself will, like I've said, take what I get, because it has been said this is same thing, I know some different ingredients, but if they claim its changed in a good way, not for me by the way cause side effects not had before) but all said and done, if I take my medicine exactly, no abuse. For me) then I should be ok, right? If not, a lot of family and friends have seen me while taking the old generic and the new brand and have the notes I take when side effects are different, well who would be to blaim if this medicine DID cause me harm, when it was told to not worry, well we will see. God Bless Us All!
