They contain the same active ingredients: Acetaminophen and hydrocodone. The only difference is 3203 pill has 325 mg of acetaminophen and 7.5 mg of hydrocodone. The 3202 pill has the same amount of acetaminophen but the hydrocodone is 5mg.

NOT if the number is different. Same name, as in Watson, but DIFFERENT number, is a DIFFERENT amount of one or both ingredients. SAME name, again Watson, SAME number, but different color, then the amount of hyrdro and acetaminophen is the same.The color change is due to production dates (as well as a yet to be disclosed reason by Watson). Most companies are in the process of reducing the amount of acetaminophen, not the narcotic, because of people who don't realize the acetaminophen is even there, and then add more acetaminophen (usually in the brand name Tylenol) from their over the counter meds. Big crackdowns legally on the narcotic regulations, but the change in acetaminophen - what should be a harmless yet ok pain reliever - is the medical communities concern (esp. when it then creates legal suits because consumers don't take the time to just ask the pharmacist questions or READ what is in everything they take by RX or OTC). Yet, one reason they started combining a minor pain reliever like acetaminophen with codeine and narcotics/opioids is that straight narcotics/opioids can cause minor headaches.
