I have a petition against Actavis Pharmaceutical for distributing bad Oxycodone. I called Actavis on the phone and they claim that the formula is the same. I was told by a reliable source that the formula has changed along with more fillers and binder included. Please let me know if you want to find my petition on Change.org. The heading will read ACTAVIS pharmaceuticals: STOP SELLING OXYCODONE AS A PLACEBO PILL TO CHRONIC PAIN SUFFERERS! Stop lining the pockets of Actavis Pharmaceutical!
Thank you

I have been a PM pt for quit sometime and was not able to obtain my other brand . Within 2 days of using ACTAVIS , my pain is doubled and there is definitely something going wrong with my gastro system . Looks like I will have a whole month of hell . I read up and found others have noticed that it's not up to par . I filed a complaint with the FDA and told them my experiences . Hopefully they can receive enough complaints that we can be heard . Come on FDA take a good look into these obvious complaints . Good luck to all , don't use ACTACRAP !!! :)

The Actavis oxycodone has also caused me to develop an ulcer. This is why I created a petition against Actavis. My petition is on change.org Its been a while since Ive seen it because I couldn't get any signatures but Im sure its still there and I will work hard to find it because Actavis percocet not only caused me an ulcer but it doesn't do anything for my pain. Watson worked for five years and now Actavis took over and added some drug abuse deterrent formula. This is why people are overdosing and dying because if they cant get pain relief from the doctor they will resort to H and other illicit drugs.

I would go w/ the kvk, I take that brand & no problems. Just got actavis 15's myself & it's terrible side effects & also does not work worth s***, like you but only I had a few kvk left I found & instantly I took one my chronic pain ( I'm in bad shape & should be on much stronger meds but have no ins & cannot afford oh and f*** the affordable care act, their not paying the doctors ) back to topic I'm so pissed off because that pharmacy & owner has been my friend for many years now, it " Just goes to show you don't ever know, watch each card you play, & PLEASE PLAY IT SLOW" Garcia .. Anyways yeah who knows anymore this country is going to hell in a bucket, the pharmacutical companies are robbing people blind, it's just legal "DRUG DEALING" & insane amounts of trafficking. Yet I cannot sit in my own home & partake in a joint of good quality, I hate to take pills, but I have to function at least a little I never abuse them & if I did I think these actavis would make you very sick, " BY DESIGN " this country is now # 2 & owned by china who is # 1 now & the new main currency. We all voted him in & now we pay the price, anyone ever notice how Obama never puts his hand on his chest EVER when our national anthem is played. Best to get off this s***, because when the s*** hits & it will those dependent on our meds will be struck down first. Sorry to get off on a rant but honestly America is just a business anymore, if you love your rights & constitution anymore your a target & even worse if you practice a religion!

I had wrote a pist but they mustve not approved it.....so ill try again. You all have to realize that actacrap is a generic Percocet. ....when u talk about oxycodone, that is a diff med.. its confusing wether some of u r on just straight oxycodone (which is not a Percocet. ....oxy doesnt have the acetaminophen included in it, Percocet does). If any of u r taking straight oxycodone, the formula has been modified to include an abuse deterrent ingredient as one has mentioned below. This makes it more difficult for abusers to insufflate or inj. it. This also changes the formula as a whole and the way its broken down in ur system as well as how long it takes to b broken down n absorbed once taken, despite a comment from another below who mentions it wouldnt make a difference. ...thats wrong. Another interesting fact....since introducing this deterrent into the market, the thought behind it was to lower the numbers on people who abuse their meds...what they didnt forsee was that while the numbers may have dropped some ( not enough for them to brag about), abusers are not only finding their way around the new formulation, it has risen the number of people who abuse illegal drugs, mostly H since its cheaper and theyre able to get their high. So while they were messing with our meds thinking they were gonna stop these i****s from abusing pills, they actually forced the abusers to turn to H n raising the percentage of H use, which is more deadly than pill abuse. All in all, they made things worse by not thinking it thru! How they thought people would have no choice but to clean up is beyond me......how these shmoo's didnt realize if they mess with one, theyll just find another source to serve their purpose just proves the people driving the bus on this problem should be demoted to janitorial duties! Theres the truth behind this mess!

Having problems with this Mfg. also tried to return the pills to the pharmacy and they said I was the only complaint. Then he told me that if at least 3 people reported it then they would submit it to the FDA so Please tell your pharmacy so we can get the a333 off the shelf.....

watson has been bought by actavis - now actavis is undercutting any other generic . so all pharmacies are buying it - i don't know if any other generic is available - actavis is waiting for FDA approval to market a drug that is following Purdue's formula which prevents drug from being effective when broken down, chewed, etc. like they have done with Oxycontin - in the meantime FDA has allowed them to market it in the meantime - but this should not effect the drug when taken properly - believe me, i have done my research on this - i have also called actavis and talked and talked to them - they supposedly took all my information down - it was a circle and i ended back at customer service and it took 2 hours - i finally asked to be transferred to the president or CEO of company and of course they wouldn't do that - i have his name and will be right back with it - chincoteague

A Petition won't stop the sale of a medication. If there was something wrong with the drug from a safety standpoint, the FDA would have it recalled.

I just knew this was not my oxycodone that ive been taking for years. Just filled my script i am on second day an still no pain relief ive been itching headache stomachache.. something is not right!!! I called the pharmasist at walgrens said it is a new brand. This is actualky a placbo. Politics now messing arond with pain medicines an it is not legal. If i can get ahold of a lab an have this analyzed i WILL get to the bottom of this. Drs dont care they say all they do is write the script... 200.00 for a script i a placebo is totally illegal. I WILL seek an attorney. I take this medication for my pain an now like health ins e feds are trying to fool us..i hope we can all ban together on this matter an get a legal case out there. its very sad this is happening. This also has raised my bloodpressure almost 80pt.At pain management yesterday it was 130/70..24hours ago now these so called brand Actavis oxycodone my pressure was 185/112.this could kill me due to the new brand!!!

@Tony,
This may not go for everyone, but from what I've been reading in a lot of the discussion threads here, KVK tech doesn't appear to have any better feedback than Actavis with regards to side effects and overall efficacy.
In my opinion, finding the brand with the least amount of negative reviews is probably the one that's worth going for. I personally found that to be a close call between Mallinckrodt and Qualitest, but I know others may feel differently based on their own individual experience.
It might also be a good idea to take some time out and browse through a few of the oxycodone threads here, to see what the majority of people are saying about other manufacturers that weren't already mentioned, such as Mylan or Purdue.
I hope this helps!
