I went to Target Pharmacy in SoCal to fill my Norco 10/325 as usual and was told that they no longer carry the Qualitest yellow brand. They gave me the white pill marked with 176 instead. These suck. Where do I get my prescription filled for the yellows now? Awful pharmaceutical conpanies messing with the formulas. I hate it. Having my scripts filled is altogether a huge process as the pharmacies won't tell you they have this medicine in stock over the phone. I was told that I'm going to called out by the DEA if I continue to have my scripts filled at various Target stores. How stupid!! Wtf does that mean??

I got sick too. The white Caracos suck. I finally went cold turkey over the past few weeks. They got their way. Squeezed me out. I'm taking Tramadol. But hope to be done for good. What a nightmare.

They are generic Norco 10/325 --- been on the yellow V 3601 for 6 years about 4 to 5 a day and just got these new White ones and they seem a lot stronger than the yellows --- I can tell when I first get them I take 2 --- within 30 minutes My nose starts itching and I feel really good --- these white ones with 176 on them ROCK --- I am telling you people they ROCK !!!

Poppy, you must tell your Dr how sick these make you! Hopefully she'll write for the brand name or find another pharmacy still stocking the generic you're used to taking. A nurse at the drs office should be able to help you find a pharmacy with your usual ingredients. Good luck!

The white are stronger. My Dad in his late 80's is given these yellow ones by the VA typically our government for cutting cost to seniors. I'm the guy that started this thread. The nose itch is the indication the pill worked and myself have told CVS or Walgreens if they are not white, get them. I will not allow the watered down yellow generic. But warn you if you want your life back and do the things you use to do these pills will over time be why you get out of bed and you will look at your watch to the next pill. Living for the pill. You are now in the system with the pharmacy system as addicted to pain killers. When you see people saying they take up to 15 or 20 a day, well they will find out when a pain killer is really needed, nothing can be done accept scream. Get on them, find the source of pain, get it fixed and get off. And to add anyone taking that many isn't getting them from a doctor, promise you that.

I fill my prescription at Target who has pharmacy which has been taken over by CVS and they gave me these White oval 176 ones and they make me puke. I feel seasick when I take them. The pain management Dr won't do anything. I'm normally not a person who believes in conspiracies however I do believe CVS is owned by the government and prior to Obamacare taking effect CVS pharmacies popped up everywhere? The gov had cut back my meds from 4 10/320's to 3 per day and now this! Sucks. My pain level is an 8 to 9 all day now and I've got a headache?

I am trying to find a product which will make the pain go away without adding new pain. I feel as well, the yellow norco was working better but as the tolerance builds the Meds seems to do less for pain. I thought j was a worse medication to get started on? Percocet, oxycontin, darvocet and all in that class were so much stronger of a narcotic that best to stay away from? I do know Tylenol is a waste in serious chronic pain which it seems is the problem all over this site, so I'm trying to educate myself in finding something that can give better pain management with the least amount of pain and without the risk of having to go on a rehab to either get the effect of controlling pain back or due to taking too much because of lack of control. Please help. Thank you. May you all suffer less.

I totally agree with you. They all work the same to me. After all they do have the same ingredients just different manufactures.

Tramadol withdrawal is worse than Norco. FYI. I'm back on Norco. I'm going to check into treatment once my medical insurance becomes effective. I've had it with f***ing pain killers.

I agree, the yellows are the same as any other 10 , the only difference I've had is the yellows cost more on the streets, due to this being widely believed

Just do what i do. I ran into the same problem with my percocet. So i called the pharmacy and asked why they weren't working. He told me bluntly, "then tell your dr to mark your prescription do not substitute" haven't had a problem since. Simple solution.

Actually, being a disabled Special Operations veteran, the VA has had me on 325/10's for about 14 years. The same question arose in me as well, not just with the Vicodens, but all medications such as Dayquil vs generic orange tabs. The answer I discovered is simply this, regardless what the Drs. say, the pharmaceutical companies producing generics are allowed a 10+ mg shift in either direction legally, and allowed buffer additives that are not as binding to save money (guess what dose they prefer?, yup, -10 or more) so no, it's not in our heads, your body knows! It's in their wallets!

This is my first prescription of Caraco and I've had horrible acne this month and they don't seem to work at all!!!!! I have a herniated disc and a degenerated disc right above it. Been on it for a couple years and the Qualitest have always work. Now that Target is CVS owned, they changed manufactures and this Caraco SUCKS!!!!!!

Best thing you can do is get off PILLS to make you feel better. When you get to a place to analyze the band width of the strength of a drug, your also counting pills and looking at your watch. So that's called living for the PILL. Look for another way and if you are really military, thanks for your service, the service that put you here. Get up soldier, you are not relived of duty. Good Luck.
