Fake M523

I have some that don't look in size a brake if I just move them ## White oblong tablets with M523 imprint are Oxycodone 10 mg/Acetaminophen 325 mg. If you got them from a regular pharmacy, they are legitimate. By regular pharmacy I mean one where you live or one that is Verified online.

A friend of mine had some of these and they made her sick. I had to have her stomach pumped. We saw on this website where these were fake pills. Is there any truth to this? ## Hi Melissa, A white oblong shaped pill with M523 on one side and 10/325 on the back is reportedly identified as a generic Acetaminophen + Oxycodone HCL tablet, made by Mallinckrodt. For verification, you can visit the following National Drug Code link: 0406-0523 Having said this, her pill does fit the description of a real product... However if she isn't going through her doctor to obtain a prescription then they could be anything pressed and shaped to look like something real. I'm not insinuating that this is the case here, but she shouldn't have to question their legitimacy if she filled a prescripti...

How to tell if they are fake or not ## Hello, Marie! How are you? What makes you suspect that they are fake? The FDA classifies this medication as 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.

My roommate keeps taking my medication. Finally I started hiding it. I think she may have found my meds took some and replaced what she took with pressed or fake M/523. The one I think is real doesn't rub off on my hand when I handle them. When I line up the pills all face up with the M/523 showing and then flip them over all the same way, some of the imprints on the back are upside down and some right side up. Question, are all pills manufactured identically or can the imprints sometimes get mixed up? ## I just obtained my monthly script from Wally World (degenerative disk disease). I thought that Itd b the M523 but, no instead she handed me a bottle of the RP 10/325 oxycodone hydrochloride. Man what a rip off ! Walmart sux!!!! I'm still in awful pain after 3 pills in three hou...

Just seems strange!! ## Nah that’s how these ones taste I be thinking I’m trippin too

How to tell if the Percocet 10/325 with m523 on one side are bad, is there any way to tell? ## Idk, but M522 are good oxycodone 7.5mg; white, oblong; get at Walmart. If you get withdrawal symptoms when stopping them, they're a genuine brand. ## Yea they're a good brand. They do have bad / fake ones going around but you can tell by the 1 on the 10. The counterfeits print is I0 instead of 10, check your 1. ## The fake m325 have just made it to rural area in Washington parish,la and sw ms. They are rough sloppy edges and the one is straight not 1 for authentic from Walmart. The M, 2 and 5 is wrong as well. My neighbor asked me to look them up and so happy he didn't take them. Would report this but don't know who to trust so he doesn't get in trouble. Please check your m...

Hello I recently had a precription filled for oxycod/apap 10/325mg tab. I noticed about half if the tablets when flipped over the stamp of m523 is upside down on some and not on the others. Does this mean half of my prescription is fake? I dont understand why they are not all the same ## It just depends on how they fall into the press at the manufacturing facility, it is nothing to worry about. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with?

Are all m523 10/325 yellow percocets fake?

I just had my script filled and it looks waxy. Is it the right medication? ## ARE U ASKING IF THEY ARE FAKE? OR R U WARNING PEOPLE THAT THERE ARE FAKE ONES THAT LOOKS LIKE THEM? ## Just tryn to warn. It's getting bad, feel like I can't trust anyone and who knows if it is the right med. Tasted like baking soda and soap. But they look identical but kinda had waxiness to outside like maybe hairspray. ## @ruby, I've never seen Percocet tablets with a waxy look to them, but it sounds to me like these counterfeiters are doing anything they can to get one up on their potential victims. The best thing you can do as a preventative measure in my opinion is to continue searching for a doctor who will write you a legitimate prescription (provided that you aren't taking them recreati...

October 2014... There are fake Percocet 10's going around with the marking 10/325 on one side and m523 on the other. I don't know what they are, but they are NOT percocets. I have been taking them for 12yrs and I know just by tasting one that it is not Percocet. Be carefully... U may think it's not possible but it is. ## Where did you get them? ## @Shun, The markings you described are listed as that of being legitimate Percocet. But by saying that they aren't anything like what you're used to getting, it's easy for one to assume that you're not getting them from a legitimate source. If that is the case, you might want to consider finding a doctor who can work with you on obtaining a valid prescription. That way you don't ever have to worry about receiving...
