I Have A Petition Against Actavis Pharmaceutical For Distributing Bad Oxycodone (Page 2)

I have a petition against Actavis Pharmaceutical for distributing bad Oxycodone. I called Actavis on the phone and they claim that the formula is the same. I was told by a reliable source that the formula has changed along with more fillers and binder included. Please let me know if you want to find my petition on Change.org. The heading will read ACTAVIS pharmaceuticals: STOP SELLING OXYCODONE AS A PLACEBO PILL TO CHRONIC PAIN SUFFERERS! Stop lining the pockets of Actavis Pharmaceutical!

Thank you

Hello,
I'm sorry to hear of your experience & I do agree w/ you. It's their generic Percoset that your speaking of correct? I remember the very first month that this happens & as I was leaving pharmacy & going down the street ( I was not driving my friend was ) i opened the bottle & BAM, these bright white tabs that were identical, even in their markings, amazing what being a multi billion dollar company can allow you to get away with, anyhoo so I went back to the store & said hey whats this & they merely said oh it's the same they just wanted to remove the dye. So I believed them & went on my way, well & thought no more of it that day. The next I knew many hours later was that these were clearly not good & my condition got worse then the withdrawls started to affect me, but like everyone else I was stuck for the month, what a bad month worst. So come the next month I went to a new pharmacy & was given my choice & I decided to go with the Endocet being they are made by the same company who makes the name Brando percosets. & wow what a difference. I learned that month all that had happened & Actavis buying them out & also moving to Ireland to skip on having to pay US taxes, that alone should tell you something about Actavis. So long story short, WHY NOT JUST SWITCH TO A DIFFERENT BRAND & OR PHARMACY, WHY CONTINUE TO BUY THEIR JUNK IF IT DOESN'T HELP, IF IT'S DUE TO A CONTRACT THAN JUST LET THE DOCTOR KNOW YOU WANT TO CHANGE PHARMACIES AND MOVE ON, THIS ALONE WILL GET ACTAVIS BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT BE SELLING THEIR PRODUCTS AND TRUST ME THEY KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON, HAVE NO DOUBT THERE. Just a side note if you switch to just plain Oxycodone IR & it's made by Actavis well your still not going to be any better off, I have done this with their 15mg & their just as bad. PLEASE TELL US WHY YOU DONT DO AS I ASKED BY MOVING ON OR GETTING A DIFFERENT BRAND. As long as their are junkies this cruel BS will continue & honestly if I ever run across one of these a**holes I'm going to make him hurt so he TRULY needs meds to control his pain. I'm all with you here, I just see the headache & stress of it all & you cannot stop a company of this size w/ a million dollar legal suit, etc.. JUST STOP BUYING THEIR PRODUCTS, I did & have just moved on. Best of luck to you all. PLEASE DO TELL US WHY YOU DONT JUST GET ANOTHER BRAND? THANKS & GOOD LUCK

I went to get my script filled and CVS and Walgreens were both out said they weren't getting any until next week. I have never been given a choice of different brands. Went to Publix and they to had Activis. Went to another Publix and they had the endocot. It is not easy going from pharmacy to pharmacy especially when you are on crutches.. But I have noticed nearly everytime Walgreens and CvS have Activis. This time Publix gave me a different mfg. Alvogen seems to be taking away the pain.

UPDATE !! Refilled my prescription and made sure it wasn't Actavis percocet and I immediately had a bowel movement and no G.I. Problems to speak of . It's been a week on aurobindo brand and it's working pretty well even though I definitely have a high tolerance to just 5/325 strength , but that's to be expected . I had to go to 5 pharmacies to great away from ACTACRAP . I told every pharmacist it's garbage and that there are many complaints against them . I also notified my doctor and he showed great interest ! For those that are ever suffering from crappy brands you must try Red Vein Kratom , don't believe the lies that it's an Evil thing , nope it will stop the pain and help anyone about to go into withdrawals . It's a god send , helped me since I threw out the Actavis towards the end of my 30 days . It works and there is NO side effects unlike our so called modern medicine . :)

I only get prescribed 7.5 and sometimes 10mg but my husband takes 5 mgs and ours are made by Watson. We have no problems with them and have never had any. Im not sure if they make 15s but it cant hurt to check on it or just ask your pharmacy tech if they do or can suggest another brand. I sure hope this helps

Even though the FDA approved the sale of BioSimilars that do NOT contain a derivative from opium to be sold using the name Oxycodone which the Definition of that Product is Required to Contain a real, natural derivative called thebaine from the poppy seeds, these companies are getting away with it as of January 2015. Please Call (888-INFO-FDA), like I have, and ask for a Complaint Form to be mailed to you. Make copies of your Complaint in case it gets lost.

ALSO: Actavis may have a new name very soon!! Heads Up Pain Victims!! They are just waiting on the Shareholders Approval.....New Name (May Be Soon)..... ALLORGAN. Find a Compound Analysis Laboratory that is not Owned or Affiliated with any Pharmaceutical Companies (Privately Owned) & ask local churches or tv stations to please broadcast the complaint so that more will call in to have theirs also evaluated if money is tight. I know there is a HUGE BioSimilar legal suit coming out of Tennessee & most of the Southern States on the use of the Name Oxycodone, does not have a semisynthetic form of an Opium Derivative in it for pain. Oxycodone = Invented in 1917.

My posts state true factual & helpful information & my factual experiences to hopefully help all Pain Victims. I suppose this site is to gauge Public Outcry & Collect Data. My posts basically calls for the Compound Analyzation from a Privately Owned Compound Analyzation Laboratory not affiliated with any pharmaceutical company be contacted & victims of these medications can stop their abusing us with these inferior pain medications. I posted the names of 5 companies that have supplied my pharmacies with inferior meds to help inform victims of this scam.

Please give us a link to this "BIO SIMULATORS" the chemical structure that visually & markably mimicked that of the oxycodone molecule must be retained & to not use the the sine as a base to make this a ( K ) Japan agonist is no doubt true but this does not make it a bio stimulator, I'm sorry today I would only hope to believe this is not correct & that your intel is a Lil cloudy, oxycodone was first developed & used in 1916 actually by a German chemist to try & create an alternative to that of morpine & or it's newly developed dark friend I think all you be known as in this time of age, being pure opiates which was more prevalent in the modern day medicine cabinet thanks to Bayer, yep your very own maker of aspirin, which if I take, I will take it in it's natural form which is willow bark extract. I'm not saying that there's not something going on w/ big brother & all it pharmaceutical companies but please do enlighten us where we can view this info you speak of, I think MANY folks on this thread would appreciate this, I myself would that's for sure & being this being a discussion on the validity of ones brand of oxycodone this should be seen by all. I did study organic chemistry but this would grab the attention of a person with even a low education, so once more PLEASE, post a link so we may read of this FDA approved so called fake oxycodne simulator. Thanks for bringing this topic to the table, I think w/ the addition to the link of your alleged info, lots more would get involved, actually posting it here and in a new thread all by its own but don't not post it here either. Thanks again kindly, I hope you will do this sooner than later. Cheers

Unless its posted on the bottle there is no deterrent. My bottle says nothing. Also you could have gotten an ulcer from pain, stress, foods, other meds and on and on. Maybe your tolerance went up and they just don't work as well. YOU DO KNOW there is always more than one possible answer. You people all sound crazy. I have been on pain meds for years and years. Your body adjusts, changes, builds tolerances, etc etc. Why is it so easy to blame the best drug you get? Maybe no more euphoria. You know that you are exaggerating just a little if not a lot! Pain meds are not supposed to make you feel high! Maybe the first week and then you're chasing it. That's what you all sound like. When I was 20 I sounded like all of you people. I would love to see the ages of all the people who are making a big deal out of the BIG BAD PAIN MEDICINE COMPANIES! They don't sell their drugs if they don't put DRUGS into the product. Plus they'd break the LAW in all countries. WAKE UP PEOPLE. You have changed more than your drugs - i.e. tolerance, change of food, weight, other meds...
