Oxycodone 5 Mil

Updated

I am prescribed 5 mug of oxycodone. On the bottle is shows round white 48/10 but the pill inside is round white, bigger and just has the # 223. It doesn't seem to work on my pain is this a different type of Oxy?

Both should be 5 mg oxycodone. Both generic and both manufacture by a different company.

@Corinne,

I do think it's strange that a pharmacy would give you two different manufacturer's products in the same bottle as another. However, despite being the same medication, they are still composed of different binders and fillers which directly affect bioavailability and overall drug efficacy. So one may still work better or worse just because of "alleged" inactive ingredients, which in my opinion aren't necessarily inactive at all if they affect absorption. I wonder if the pharmacy would be willing to fix their mistake for you?

Just for reference, fillers found in the "223" pill are: lactose anhydrous + silicon dioxide + magnesium stearate + microcrystalline cellulose + corn starch + sodium starch glycolate type A potato.

Fillers found in the V 48 10 pill are: lactose monohydrate + magnesium stearate + microcrystalline cellulose + povidone + sodium starch glycolate type A potato + stearic acid

I hope this helps!

Yes thank I very much for your answer. I was told by the pharmacist that it was just a different company used, there's no difference but I feel the difference. It's from the VA and they will not fix there mistake. The pill in the bottle should have matched the description on the bottle

I got the 223 pills and they make me feel really weird! I am almost terrified to take them! But my pain levels are off the charts!
