White Oblong Pill A333 Not As Effective As Other Generics (Page 2)

I have been taking oxycodone 10/325 for a serious pain problem for some time now. I am used to getting a round white tablet with Watson imprinted on one side and the numbers 925. Those worked fine for my pain. They were supplied by CVS as a generic for Percocet. I also received another generic that was a yellow oblong tablet and these also worked well. I refilled my prescription last month however and got these white oval tablets with an imprint of A333 on them and not only am I not getting adequate pain coverage but there are many times I felt very strange after taking my medication. The only way I can describe it is weird, tingly, the way I feel if I have been able to sleep and miss taking my afternoon dose. Like I didn't take the medication at all. I discussed this with a friend and she said maybe the medication isn't as potent as it is supposed to be or is an inferior mixture- it is a generic after all and with all the cost cutting perhaps there isn't as much of the active ingredient. She said to report it to my pharmacist. He confirmed that I've never had this generic before, that some people react differently to the different ones, that this one might not be for me. Sadly, I have no control over what brand I get and am not able to buy the brand name or even the generic I am used to taking. So, spending much more time on the couch, lots more pain, nothing I can do about it. The pharmacist did say he hoped he would be able to order my previous generic in the future but it won't be any time this month. Is anyone else experiencing a problem with this generic form of this medication?

I go to a home town Pharmacy and we love that they know us by name and try to get what everyone needs.I have several Autoimmune Diseases and Percocets is the only pain med I'm not allergic to. My Pharmacy keeps the round peach 229 for me put up.It is on my file for every one to fill my script only with these.I check when I get out door to make sure. These work great, I can only take half 3 times a day ,I'm so allergic to medication. Praying for all of you ,God Bless,
