White Oblong Pill A333 Vers Waton

To all of you who find that the A333 doesn't work as well as the Watson 932 you are right. i have been using the Watson for 3 years now with great pain reduction and no side effects. Now after 3 months on the Actavis A333 I am in a lot of pain and am constipated most of the time. Since the FDA allows a 20-25% tolerance, a 10mg pill could only be 8mgs, lets face it you know its not going to go the other way, that would cut into profits. As an organic chemist dealing in DNA & RNA production for the monomers I can tell you that the slightest change can make all the difference in the end product. I can bet the farm that Actavis made the A333 cheaper than Watson so therefor that is why the chemist at Actavis make it and not the chemist at Watson. Any variation in production will make major changes to the effects of the end product. I need to convince my doctor that i need more of the A333 or something different. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hello, Stephen! How are you?

Tolerance isn't the correct word there, it's a fluctuation, generics are allowed to differ from the name brand by plus or minus 20% of the active ingredient.

As to your doctor, the best thing to do would be just to be honest with them and tell them about the issue.

This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Does anyone else have any suggestions?
