White Oblong Pill With A333 (Page 3)

This a333 is generic for percocet and CVS is dispensing them, OXYCODONE 10/3.25 is what they are.

Hi, you are NOT alone. Since Actavis came out there are thousands of us suffering including myself. Were you taking the Watson 10/325. In my area I cannot find them anymore and have been told they are not being made anymore. I have also tried the brand name 5/325 percocet and it doesn't work for me either. It feels like I took a sugar pill that made me sleepy. This is devastating to so many of us. If we all report this to Actavis and file a complaint with Medwatch and the FDA something will have to be done. Maybe not today, but if we all report the awful side effects along with giving us placebo sugar pills that don't even touch the pain, they will have to look into this. There are just TOO many of us not getting pain relief and getting so sick. I had terrible stomach issues along with anxiety and feeling like my head was going to explode. Nobody should take the Actavis in any strength as it will only ruin your health and make you sick. It is just not worth it and if you have to double up and take more than you did in the past, you risk really getting sick. This Actavis stuff is a FAKE and it is poison. How they can get away with letting us take this crap is beyond me.

The Actavis a333 does not work!!!!I have been taking Watson and Mallinkrodt for 3 years and never had a single issue.

Then 2 months ago...I was given Actavis a349. It worked almost as good as the watson. The next month...I was given Actavis a333...it didn't work at all.

Its the a333 FORMULATION that's the issue.

I called Actavis and filed a complaint. They agreed but said they couldn't replace them so I'm stuck in pain..I hope they start supplying a formula that works and stop ripping us off....a lot of people have been affected.

I've seen posts since January 2014 about a333 pills.....and so many complaints!

By calling Actavis about their bad a333 pills...they will refund you the cost of the pills which is a lot of money for most of us.

We have to suffer for the rest of the month so its better to complain than put up with it.... because the next month...were going to get the same a333 pills again as almost all the pharmacies have Actavis now.

When you call and get voice mail...leave a message. They will call you back in a couple of days to follow up...,Below is the phone number:

It is 2:59am and I am in extreme pain. I have been taking percocet for 5 months. Ive gotten 2 perscriptions from CVS, the 1st one i had to go to the emergency room for nausea and pain. I went to CVS and told them they needed to change my pills out that i got "a bad batch" they acted like i was crazy. I got the manufacturers info and called and complained and they sent me a refund check then later sent me an email stating their pills were tested and they were fine, so i started to think something was wrong with me. I later got my refills at Wal-Mart and was fine. This last script when i went to get filled everyone was out and i went to CVS, i have been in servere pain since i got the ones from CVS, I thoight i was just getting worse, which has been causing depression. I googled this manufacturer and saw all of these comments and was shocked but relived to know this is not in my head and that it is this brand of medication. My doctor will not give me a new perscription he said something about the law and drug addicts. I even tried to give him the entire bottle back all except for 3 pills. This is so not cool, im hurting so bad i can barely breathe. Something needs to be done. I can be a witness or something if someone knows how we can stop this company from selling these bogus pills.

Hi marcy, so sorry to hear you are not getting any pain relief. The actavis brand is the worst there is no oxycodone in it and there are many people going through withdrawals because of it. May I ask what did you get at Walmart that was working for you I mean what manufacturer did they give you that helped with your pain? I am looking for an alternative as well now that there is no more Watson. Thanks for any information.

Today is Thursday 4 days from my last post. My doctor will not write me again for 30 days. Thats not why i am writing. I was up all night with a burning sensation in my stomach that was horrific. Ive been on the toilet all night and day. Finally i threw up and i could taste that bitter taste of medicine. Im feeling a litter better, sick, wise but I can barely walk or even write this message, im in so much pain. Good thing ive got"key swipe" on my phone.

For the people complaining.. It's like any other perk 10, it's all in your guys head about anxiety causing or your withdrawing from them. They work well for me.

I can no longer find the Watson brand Percocet in my area (Michigan). I am currently getting 10-325 from Rite Aid under the Pharm name "AMNEAL", any info for this supplier, anyone. I suffer from advanced cervical and lumbar disc degeneration and really don't want to go through surgery at my age, so it looks like pills is the immediate answer for now.

This Actavis is utter crap. Got my script filled to find they changed from Watson to Actavis. Never again. I will look for endocet next time.
Does your doctor have to write endocet on the script? I certainly don't want to get lumbered with that CRAPPY ACTAVIS. How can they supply a med that does not work and risk of unknown side effects.

DuPain, you are not alone it is awful this activis acticrap is making so many people sick. Google "watson is now actavis what is up with this" and you will see over 500 pages of complaints. I started the thread back in Feb. of this year because I just like you got Actavis and it made me totally sick. You won't believe how many of us are suffering. I have tried so many different ones but have been on percodan by Watson they still make that for some reason and have not had the severe side effects from the others. I have tried Endocet and it made my too sleepy - tried Mallincrofdt and it didn't help my neck pain one bit and last but not least I got Amneal and it put me to sleep and made me feel weird all day. They are ALL crap now. The only good one was Watson in my opinion.

Lola; I take the "Amneal" brand and they don't make me sleepy, but they are not as good as the "Watson" brand. Activas was garbage and I switched pharmacies. I didn't know I could request that my Dr. prescribe the Watson name specifically. What other forms of medication is there for chronic pain when surgery isn't an option? I'm not too up on the pharma scene and somewhat at the mercy of my Dr.

I have not complained, nor have I wrote a post or ask my doc to change scripts. But I have had the bad luck of getting my script filled at cvs (I am dying from Cancer) and all that has been written here about this Actavis generic Percocet is indeed correct. There is a horrible difference, with horrible side affects. This is in no one's heads

Rob.. Try a neighborhood pharmacy.. That's what I did.. I took all my meds & transferred from Walgreens.. Tell ur Dr. To write on script.. Endocet.. That's a different company. They work. But it's not in your head re: Actavis.. I was told too from Walgreens cust serv.. That they weren't making them as stronger NO MORE.. & YES.. Have a different ingredient.. I too got very sick.. Good Luck & God Bless..

The Walgreens where I live are still giving out the Watson brand. They are white round Percocet. I dunno why my pharmacy still has the Watson brand. Hopefully u guys can find them like I have. Just got my script filled yesterday for the 10/325 for 240 of them. I asked how long they would still have them and the pharmacist told me that he isn't aware of any changes to a new med. so I will keep my fingers crossed.
