Pill Watson 3203 White

Ha, whoever said Mallinckrodt is better than Qualitest is badly mistaken....The 10mg/325 Norcos by Qualitest are some of the best going....Mallies give people headaches.....I'd give about .50 cents for a 5mg one.....

The differences people are noticing across one manufacturer to another vary based on so many different factors (i.e. tolerance, age, weight, metabolism, digestive health, mentality, body chemistry, etc) that there is virtually no way to disprove someone's own reasoning / opinion as to why they feel the way they do about one tablet working better or worse than the other. So my thoughts are that whoever said "Mallinckrodt is better than Qualitest" was solely speaking relative to what works for their own body chemistry.

I think body chemistry plays a huge role when it comes to a number of differences we experience, not only in life, but because our chemistry is a "byproduct" of the chemicals our brain pumps out based on ever-changing thoughts, moods, illusionistic expectations, feelings, emotions, environments, personal life circumstances, etc, I would argue that any number of these could inadvertently affect how well my body responds to a drug vs. someone else. To what degree, that remains a mystery, but the notion of this being a plausible factor that can change one's perception about a drug is very real when I look at all the commentary surrounding disagreements pertaining to drug efficacy.

Another thing to keep in mind is that people also respond differently to the different binders and fillers that are added and often switched around from tablet to tablet. There are a lot of reports from patients about inactive ingredients being the suspected culprit of their decision against / or for the quality of the tablet.

Update to my post from August 2015:

@Gatorra (the thread starter),

The title of this thread reads "Pill Watson 3203 White" (which is a 7.5/325 dose), but your description pertains to two completely different manufacturers than Watson (as well as a different dosage of 10/325) that have little to do with the actual thread title. I just wanted to point this out for other visitors who come across this thread thinking that it's about Watson 3203, when you went off on another topic. Nevertheless... posted below is some additional information relating to the title of this thread that may be of some benefit to others:

Watson 3203 Inactive Ingredients (white version):
-Cellulose, microcrystalline
-Croscarmellose sodium
-Magnesium stearate
-----------------
-Croscarmellose Sodium
-Crospovidone
-Magnesium Stearate
-Cellulose, Microcrystalline
-Povidones
-Starch, Corn
-Stearic Acid

NOTE: The National Drug Code (NDC) displays two different sets of inactive ingredients for the white version. Not sure why this is?

NDC: 0591-2605
Dosage: 7.5 mg (Hydrocodone Bitartrate) + 325 mg (Acetaminophen)
Size (mm): 14
Manufacturer: Watson Laboratories


Not to be confused, Watson 3203 also comes in the form of an orange tablet (same dosage, shape and size) with yet another separate set of inactive ingredients.



NDC: 0591-3203

Inactive Ingredients:
-Croscarmellose Sodium
-Crospovidone
-Magnesium Stearate
-Cellulose, Microcrystalline
-Povidones
-Starch, Corn
-Stearic Acid
-Fd&c Yellow No. 6
-Aluminum Oxide


I hope this information finds you all well!
