Watson 853 White Pill / Shinier Smaller Pill

Updated

I have been taking norco 10/325 and the pills say watson 853 for some reason the last ones I got where a smaller version and looked shiny compared to my older ones that were a little bigger and more dull looking with a chalky film left in the bottle these new ones that are shiny don't have that chalky film to them and the imprint looks a little different as well. It is not something u would really notice without really looking at them or having one to compare it to. Would these be some kind of fake pill or geneic version. Just curious?

Hello,

Just out of curiosity, did you order these off the internet from one of those overseas pharmacies in India?

If you had got them from a legitimate retail pharmacy here in the US I don't see why you'd even have anything to be concerned about; but if they were brought back from overseas and don't have the typical look and/or feel that you're used to seeing, then I would probably write them off as being counterfeit/fake. Reason being is that you're not going to notice that type of inconsistency from real meds, without a licensed pharmacy being aware of such discrepancies as well. So depending on how you went about obtaining these tablets should also reveal whether or not you need to proceed with caution.

I hope this helps!

Did you ever determine if the meds you had were fake or if the manufacturer made a change or a batch issue? I have heard that this is a issue and the pills that look a little off don't work the same so wanted to hear your experience with taking the meds... did you notice a difference in the effect or did they just look different?
