Percocet 333

My cvs just switched from watson manuf for percocet 10 to this actavia oblong pill marked A 333..and it does NOT work as well as the other did. I get very little relief and have to take more...sometimes with NO effect at all. Can someone have these pills tested to see what is actually in them?

My father got these prescribed after a massive head trauma and reconstruction of his skull and orbital area. I told him they were Percocets but he is arguing with me. I know I am right but need verification for him, lol. Usually Percocets always made him sick and that way if it does we will know it is that and not something else wrong with his skull. ## You are correct, these tablets are manufactured by Actavis Elizabeth and they list them as containing 10mgs of Oxycodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen, so it is a generic for Percocet. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

Wanting to know if these are these percocets ? ## Hello, Sboom! How are you? Yes, the tablet with the A 333 marking contains 10mgs of Oxycodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen, while the one with the 512 marking contains 5mgs of Oxycodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. 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?

Found this pill in my sons room. A333 imprinted, white oval with a line in the middle. Please, I pray it's only an over the counter product... ## Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but R333 is the code CVS uses to identify their oxycodone generic. It's a very addictive opiate: I would advise taking it from him immediately and getting him something a little less harmful, like a bong. ## Pardon, I meant A333. R333 is the code for hydrocodone. ## Take em cuz they are definitely oxycodone. ## They are not percocet or hyddocodone talk to your phamacist its an impotent drug ## Hi Deb, I am currently taking this medication, for pain. It is DEFINITELY Percocet 10/325. It's generic from Target Pharmacy. I would call a few pharmacy's. If u feel embarrassed to call, say that u are...

Is there a perocet 10 mg that is yellow with just a marking of a v on it. No other markings ## Hello, Mark! How are you? No, but there is a 200mg caffeine tablet that matches this description that's available over the counter. Depending on the style of the V, it could be a name brand Vivarin tablet, or one of the many generic or store brands of it. Learn more Caffeine details here. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Lortab 10 comes in an oval yellow pill with a V one side and 36|01 on the other side. ## Hello how do you know what pill is a better pill, I was taking oxycodone a 333 then the pharmacist gave me Oxy U17. Now they have given me a yellow round pill with 230 on one side I don't like all these changes and would like to just know which is the better product.

I go online to find unknown pills. But all you have to do is is google A 333 and it comes back to Percocets. This is the new novelty that society created by demonizing marijuana over the past 40 years. Kids are always going to find something to alter consciousness because for a large percentage of them life sucks (been there). Here is the cautionary tale on this one. In an overblown effort to stop the pills the government has set some pretty restrictive regulations when comes to opiod scripts. The kid that was taking Oxys is now finding them harder to get. From Oxy to H isn't a large leap. It's cheaper, its available and it's killing our kids without prejudice. I've seen too many good youngsters take one step over the line and it's a dirt nap. Your body forgets to br...

If I find out that the supposed oxycodone I am taking is anything other than what it should be, I will be contacting a money hungry attorney for I shall be extremely wealthy. ## I have the same issue with RP 10/325 - I went into withdrawals and took the Med back to Walmart pharmacy and the pharmacist said he's "had no other complaints and couldn't do anything for me". I now have Activas A 333 and they are taking awhile to kick in and I am just praying these awful feelings go away. Please let me know if you found out anything. ## Have either of you considered getting the tablet's contents analyzed by a lab in order to determine how much oxycodone/acetaminophen is really in there v.s. what they put on the label? Part of me wonders if these drug companies might be skimp...

Wife had prescription for Percocet which was substituted by CVS with a small white oblong pill with A 333 on one side and no identification and no "line" for breaking in two on the other side, but identified on bottle and circular as "10-325". After root canal, pill has been relatively ineffective only overriding pain for about an hour and caused nausea and vomiting when second pill taken 4 very long hours later. After a day of suffering, switched to hydrocodone 7.5-300 at 10am when ineffectiveness of 6am oxycodone 10-325 on second day had wife in tears again. Potency of year old hydrocodone 7.5-300 superior to new oxycodone 10-325. Lack of a line for splitting in two a curious omission since there is a 5-325 dosage available. Question potency and effectiveness of new A ...

A friend has a problem with opiates. They bought these pills that are white and have p333 on them. They were told they were 10 mg narcotics, either oxys or hydros. Anyway I've never heard of them and don't want them taking something that could hurt them. ## Hello, Jen! How are you? Is the marking possibly A 333? There is a tablet that matches this description with A 333 on it that contains 325mgs of Acetaminophen and 10mgs of Oxycodone, it's a generic for 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.

R 333 pills are Oxycodone or brand name Percocet 10 mg 325 mg. I just got these from Walgreens after getting a prescription for these from my pain management doctor. They definitely work. I have RA and they work better than Norco in my opinion. ## Hi Denise, R333 is Pantoprazole sodium (delayed release) A333 is generic Percocet containing 10/325 (oxycodone HCL + acetaminophen) I'm assuming you meant to put "A333", is that correct? What color and shape are your pills? Glad to hear it's working so well for you!

I have a pill marked A 333 and blank on the other side, cannot find what it is on any website. Can someone help me figure out what pill this is??! ## Hello, Barb! How are you? I'm sorry, but I haven't been able to find a listing for this, either. I'm wonder if it is possibly an over the counter product, or maybe a foreign medication? Where was it found?

Are pills with R 333 Oxycodone? I am sure that it is definitely a Percocet 10 325. Is that right? ## No.. But there is a percocet that is A333 made by Actavis. ## @Phillies, The only pill I'm finding online that is marked "R333", happens to be a 40mg Pantoprazole sodium delayed release tablet, used to treat symptoms of GERD and esophagitis. You never mentioned the color or shape of the tablet either, which in this case is a round yellow pill. But if you say that it's Percocet, it sounds to me like the imprint was simply misinterpreted. Because as Darwinski stated, "A333" is a 10/325mg Percocet made by Actavis; and is a white capsule-shaped pill by description. So there you have it. This could be either one of the pills mentioned above, depending on what you would...

My wife has a bad heart, and pain effects her heart. these actavis percocet must be nothing but phony material. they dont even touch her pain like watson pills did. this company should not be able to cheat the public like this. peoples heath is at stake. they need to be shut down. why are these companies allowed to sell products that don't even work. people pay to get their pain taken care of. does cvs not care either, they are accepting these. ## There are others complaining about actavis on this website. look around a little ## Hello, Stan!

This is supposed to be Percocet??? Very concerned. ## Apparently someone else who was looking for this same exact pill on another thread, said it was supposed to be a Percocet 10/325mg tablet. However, I understand that the imprint has an R and not an A. It's just the only relative match that I found is "A333" on a white oblong (capsule-shaped) tablet. Makes me wonder if the manufacture simply made a mistake on a good batch of their pills? You could try calling the U.S. Customer Relations for Actavis at +1 (800) 272-5525. Maybe they can confirm whether or not it's truly one of their own. I hope this helps! Does anyone else recognize this pill? ## The "R" looks like an "A" after the 333. It is a Percocet.

Hi I just started taking this A333 white oblong pill. (Generic Percocet. 10/325). I never had this type before and got it due to pharmacy supply. My question is has anyone noticed a difference in pain relief from other brands. Maybe it's me but it doesn't seem to work as well. Can't wait to hear some other input on this. Thanks. ## Hello, Bill! How are you? This tablet is manufactured by Actavis (Watson) and yes, there have been quite a few complaints about it recently. Prior to them popping up on here, I was actually not aware of this tablet and just managed to find the information on it. It appears that it must be cheaper than other generics, because more pharmacies are providing it and many people are dissatisfied. Have you consulted your doctor? They may have some idea t...
