Subtutex Oval Orange 153

Updated

I have been on subutex for 2 years and just got my prescription from the pharmacy and it changed to an oval orange half moon one side 153 on the other strength 8mg. I am curious if anyone has knowledge on these pills and there opinion I prefer the ones I'm use to which are small white pill made by hitech because they dissolve quickly. I have not taken any yet I would appreciate any feedback from someone who has switched to them or had feedback in comparison to other subutex pills thanks

I also got the same pills from the pharmacy. and i also took the little white pills. I have taken my dose today and im not noticing any difference yet. But im really hoping i wont be dealing with any withdrawls from changing. these pills are also more expensive where im from, im not a happy camper with the situation

@Jake,

I think a good way to go about comparing the 8mg orange subutex pill by Actavis with another manufacturer's version is to examine the list of inactive ingredients in each tablet, because this is typically where such discrepancies are found.

The inactive ingredients in this orange tablet are reported to be as follows: citric acid anhydrous + crospovidone + FD & C yellow #6 HT aluminum lake + lactose monohydrate + magnesium stearate + mannitol + pregelatinized starch (maize) + povidone + sodium citrate dihydrate

The inactive ingredients in the smaller 8mg white pill made by Hi-Tech Pharma are: corn starch + sodium stearyl fumarate + lactose monohydrate + mannitol + anhydrous citric acid + trisodium citrate dihydrate + povidone

Even though both tablets contain the same amount of Buprenorphine, something that often gets overlooked is the presence of these seemingly ever-changing substances the differ from one tablet to another. It is my understanding that even the slightest changes can affect comparisons between overall efficacy. So it would be quite normal to prefer one version over the other depending on how these subtle differences affect you. However, this does not necessarily mean that one is better than the other based on the feedback of a small group, since each individual may still respond differently than the majority. In that aspect, I suppose the only real way to formulate a valid personal opinion is to experience this orange tablet for yourself.

Hope this helps!

Big difference from the white pill that has 54 114. Now I got the Orange Actavis with 153 on it. All I can say is don't get it. Try a different pharmacy. I picked up mine on Friday and they don't help the pain and two they taste terrible! If your pharmacy has run out do not get the orange ones!!

Hi. ..
I have started treatmend with buprenophine about 1 month ago, and is not yet at the right dosis. The other days, I was given a 8 mg WHITE tablet, wich clearly also had an effect on the pain.. today though, the 8 mg tablet looked different, so looked it up, it said :
"8 mg tablet, for treatement of withdrawls, last between 4-8 hours"
So does anyone who has tryed theese "buprenophine Activas" has any experience if they will work for pain also? And what about the estimatet 4-8 hours the compagny is writing they will work.. have anyone any exprience with how long they will last? Cause I only get Them 1 time a Day. . Wich is clearly not enough if they only last 4 or 8 hours..
Thank you..
PS sorry for My poor writen english, Im from Scandinavia, and doesnt speak or write english often!
