I picked up my medication at my pharmacy CVS and it was a333 when I took the first pill I started felling cramps and headache... I called the pharmacy they offered no help so I went back to my doctor and got another script .I can't tell you how awful I felt like I was some kind of drug freak or something I had to have my medicine flushed once before because I was sick the entire time I was taking it...at this point no matter what happens with my medication I'm sticking with it good or bad for fear she won't see me anymore..its not right to feel like you may be labeled a drug freak because you don't want to suffer because these drug companies don't do right by the people they are supposed to help. Anyone else feel this way? ## The Actavis a333 does not work!!!!I have ...

They did not discountuine he WATSON brand that was what the pharmacy was telling you so they did not have to explain why they did not have the New Abuse Pills made, There was a contract made the Actavis would be the ones to do the pills and that is why they are filling all Pain meds. This is all about our government trying to control our life. We have no freedom anymore. We can't even have freedom of Pain. It is all crap. The thing with the National Pill registry, trying to get people on health care, that's all a way to monitor where you go to the Doctor what meds you get, it's all a plan...WATSON was not discontinued. ## Complaining to the FDA about weak percocets from activas is a joke.its the FDA thats trying to take away our pain meds. Boycott all Activas products and go...

this pill does not do what its supposed to do very weak not good for pain ## There have been many complaints about these tablets from Actavis. I suggest reporting the issue to the FDA, so they are made aware of it. You can reach them at 888-463-6332 This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## This is my first time receiving Actavis A333 and I must say (to keep it professional) they are "C-R-A-P!" I just had my doctor cut me down from 15 mg Roxi to 10 mg Percocet. Yes, from 15 mg Roxi to Percocet 10 mg. Two reasons, one to help me control it and two because I get tired calling around the pharmacies trying to find t...

Ok so i was recently prescribed this new equivalent to my previous prescription for watson. The scoring on this new pill is a333 and it seems to work well but my stomach cant handle the cramping. My pcp is going to write for me a new prescription for something different but until then im stuck with these cheap nockoffs. Can i cut these pills in half to minimize the stomach cramping? ## Hello, Steve! How are you? Yes, as long as your doctor approves, you can cut these in half, they are regular release tablets that contain 10mgs of Oxycodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen, according to the prescription drug databases. The FDA lists this mediation as possibly being habit forming and states that it is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects,...

I too was recently switched to generic A333 made by Pharma due to shortages. I have experienced upset stomach, indigestion, indigestion, etc...likewise, my pharmacy was CVS. I am NOT getting as much pain relief either & the pain comes back in less than 2 hrs, where as others can last up to 6. Where can I file a complaint? THANKS ## The only place I think it would make sense to file a complaint like this with, would be to contact the manufacturer who makes those specific tablets and let them know what's going on. Maybe if enough people file complaints with them directly, they would start to take a hint. Here's the number to reach Actavis' Customer Service: +1 (800) 272-5525 As a patient having to rely on this medication for chronic pain relief, there's not much else y...

I filled my Rx at a different pharmacy to save time and received this version of Percocet a333. It's terrible! The regular ones I receive (by a completely different manufacturer than this or Watson) work pretty well. My issue is just worsening so They just aren't effective. Then when I opened this bottle, noticed the texture was different. It was early morning and dark so I took my normal 1/2 so I can go back to sleep. Felt no relief like I normally feel enough to sleep comfortably. Had to double check to make sure I didn't put Tylenol in one of the bottles for travel. Took the other half. Feels as weak as Tylenol in regards to my level of relief (almost none). Took my next full dose at when enough time had passed. Still, very little relief. This isn't the first time this w

I found that the activis a333 has a laundry detergent taste,(the powdered kind),,and it crumbles very easy in my hand and in my mouth...regular Percocets or generic or vicoden are crunchy and are hard to snap if you bite them...I could understand them being soft, even though I never had a soft pill like that, but my question is why does it taste like laundry detergent ## How do you know what detergent tastes like?? Wtf did u eat laundry detergent hahaah ## Hello Maddixx, Different brands use different inactive ingredients, the ingredients that are there for purposes not directly related to the intended purpose of the pill. These ingredients affect the time release of the pills, it sounds like the percocets/vicodin/generics you have previously taken all have a hard shell which typically ...

I just started taking the A333 pill. It is supposed to be a generic substitute for oxycodone 10/325. I was taking the Watson 932 generic substitute but was switched to the A333 pill because of drug store supply. I have noticed the A333 does not work nearly as well as the Watson 932 for me. ## Hello, Will! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having. How long have you been taking this one? There can be slight fluctuations in the amount of the active ingredient from one generic to another, but they are usual minuscule and normally your body will adjust after a short period of time. ## I have been taking Percocet for a long time. Up until about 4 months ago I would get this strong burst of energy along with killing the pain. It would last about 4hrs. I would get the...

MY HUSBAND HAD A STROKE IN 2007 AND HAS CONSTANT HEADACHES EVER SINCE. HE WAS PUT ON THE WATSON 932 AND AT LEAST TOOK THE EDGE OFF AND HE COULD DO SOME THINGS AROUND THE HOUSE. WELL ACTVIST BOUGHT WATSON PHARM AND WE WERE TAKING THE A333 AND IT WAS DOING NOTHING FOR HIM. THE PAIN WOULD BE UNBEARABLE SOMETIMES AND HE WOULD HIDE IN THE DARK BEDROOM FOR HOURS. WE WENT TO WALMART AND GOT A DIFFERENT BRAND WHICH IS IP 204 FROM AMNEAL PHAMACUETICALS. WE WILL SEE IF IT WILL WORK FOR HIM. ## Hello, Marcy! How is your husband doing? Are the new tablets from Intrapharm working better for him? This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. ## The Actavis a333 does not work!!!!I...

ok, this is the real deal regarding the generic 10mg oxycodone a333 made by Actavis - actually Actavis acquired Watson - Watson brand product was discontinued Jan. 2014 - it is hard to find another generic - my opinion is that Actavis undercut prices of other generics, so all the pharmacies are buying it - i totally agree that there is a huge difference in pain relief - Actavis is now a huge global pharmaceutical presence, second or third to, well, I can't remember the other companies, you could look it up - they are using Purdue Pharma's anti-abuse formula or whatever you want to call it - they are moving their corporate headquarters to Ireland to take advantage of the lower tax rates - I spoke to them a long time (2 hours), and also wrote the FDA regarding their product - the ...

I went to CVS got mine filled on Feb 18 2014 it was also the Actavis brand Oxycodone and I have taking different brands before and never had this feeling. I am having really high blood pressure, chest pain, my left arms feels asleep, my left leg as well,plus I get this pain down my left leg. I get them filled on the 18th and only takin 11 of them, even though they are prescribed 4 x day. I took 1 Tues morning at 11 am and by 3pm all them signs above came on, it lasted till wed about 6 to 7 pm. everything went back to normal. My blood pressure was fine, and non of the signs about. The only other thing I took was my blood pressure pills.

Omg so glad to hear others. I had to have my doctor give reason to my insurance company to fill it as brand name .. Pay $50. More on top of it for the brand! The generic not good in fact bad.. Believe me paying $60 instead of $10 hurt in a diff way but what choice did I gave..??? ## Hello, Daisey! How are you? I'm glad you were able to work out a solution, even if it cost you more money. Many people have been complaining about these tablets from Actavis Elizabeth saying that they just don't work, although they list them as containing 10mgs of Oxycodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. The FDA classifies this as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

I, too, had to switch to CVS Jan. 1, 2014, because I now have Obamacare, Value Silver Plan & in the place I live, basically one huge Insurance Co....the only one available. I live in a red state. Walgreens, who I used for a decade, did not sign a contract with ins. Co. For the Value Silver Plan. Everyone on this plan had to switch to CVS because this is what our ins. co. told us to do! I have thought, maybe, CVS, knowing full well, it was going to get slammed with new pharmacy customers come Jan 1st & in cohoots with the giant ins. co., saw a way to make more money by buying & selling cheap & substandard "value" medicine for the people who are on this plan! What are your thoughts on this? I, too, have to take A333, along with another pain medicine (long lasting) ...

Why is this pill so hard to find info on? If it is oxycodone the drug # does not come up when you search it? Just like to be sure that it is what it is supposed to be. Please give me info, a link or something. ## Hi tyrone, A lot of people have been asking about this specific pill lately and I think it's mainly because they do not have it listed yet on standard pill ID sites. Actavis (the manufacturer) however, does in fact list it on their product webpage as Oxycodone (10mg) + Acetaminophen (325mg); which is used to treat moderate to severe pain. For verification, it has a National Drug Code of 00228-2983-11. Source: actavis.com/en/Products/SearchProductResults.htm?search_criteria=OXYCODONE/APAP I hope this helps clear up any confusion!

I have been taking percocet 10/325 for years for a severe pain that is constant and over the years received several different shapes as well as colors for this medication. I just got a scrip filled (3 hours ago) and took one of this pills upon arriving home and I do not feel ANY pain relief. I was wondering if it was just me or if this med takes longer to work?? The pills have A333 on them and after looking them up online I now have a better understanding of what I was given. How can a company actually manage to release a med like this? I know that we all are trying to cut costs but my goodness this is really not the way to do it as far as I am concerned. I also feel kinda sick to my stomach and was wondering what in the world is in these pills. I cannot find the contents (fillers maybe...

I just got this medication from a local CVS pharmacy. I had to pay because they once again lied to me about Oxycondone being taken off the market and that my insurance no longer covers this medication. The truth about A333 is LESS Tylenol. If this pill does not work as well as Watson 932 just take an extra Tylenol pill with it. I have been on opiates for 5 years and this pill works just fine for me. ## Hi ben, Sorry to hear about the pharmacy lying to you over your insurance coverage. That sounds like a pretty ridiculous attempt to get you to spend cash. Watson 932 actually has the same amount of Acetaminophen as A333, but I think the difference is that they don't make them with more than 325 mgs anymore. 325 mg is now the new max dosage found in any pills as of 2014, due to an incr...

These new A333's are a joke.. I have had multiple lower back surgeries as well as multiple screws and rods. I have been in PM for 5+ years. About a month or so these A333's came in to CVS and I might as well be eating tic tacs. They have no affect whatsoever excpet making me feel sick. No pain relief at all. Does anyone know if it is just CVS dispencing these? It almost feels like I am going through withdrawals with these ## I am very sorry that these aren't working for you. I don't know what the problem is, but there have been a lot of complaints about them. I think you should report it to the FDA, you can call them at 888-463-6332. The only other suggestion I have is to contact your doctor and ask about trying a different medication. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it...

Watson is now Actavis if the article I just read is true , so your A333 is generic Percocet and hopefully works as well as the white round Watson , not sure yet tho . ## That is correct. Watson acquired Actavis and has dropped the Watson name. The tablet with the A333 marking contains 10mgs of Oxycodone and 325mgs of Percocet. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Learn more Percocet details here. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Where can I read more about this.....Watson acquired Actavis and has dropped the Watson name? That's the name brand CVS uses now! Except if I get mine there, they (CVS),said mine is onlong [sp] and has "A32" on...
