Red Speckled Hydrocodone Pill

I'm a Disabled Army Combat Veteran and I've had, to no surprise, a slew of different types of hydocodone, but recently the pills I've been issued have red or blue spots in them. I was told by my doctor that the spotted pills absorb into your body faster and therefore begin working faster and last longer, is this fact or fiction? ## Fiction! They are all regular release tablets that will take 15 to 20 minutes to start working and the speckles in some of them make no difference to that. That's just something that the manufacturer decided to do to their tablets to set them apart from the others available on the market. Learn more Vicodin details here. Any such colors and speckles are entirely up to whit and whim and mean nothing whatsoever to the actual absorbency rate of t...

I was in a bad accident back in March of 2012, I was on a snow machine ( mobile for who call it that) and was hit by a large SUV. I had a shattered pelvis, broken hip and broken femur. I've found that the qualitest 5/325 white pills with red specks work best for me compared to other brands, but of late I've had to take more to feel a relief. I'm wondering if they make the same type just stronger. I don't know if it's the red specks they use in them that makes it different with others. I also just moved and am worried my new state won't have that brand even if I can't get a raised dose with my next doctor. I hate taking so many, wish I didn't have to take them at all to be honest. I have tried to go my normal route and stop taking them to lower my need for...

hi I have a round red pill that is speckled or spattered so the color of the pill is almost red and white and on one side it says Endo 048, im having trouble finding out what this is its mg and everything else any ideas?? ## Need to know what kind of pill this is. It's white, round with reddish specs. ## I've yet to come across any pills here that fit this description - However, I think your best bet may be to contact Endo Pharmaceuticals directly to find out if it's truly something they make or if this is a possible counterfeit? You can reach Endo's customer service department at 1-800-462-3636. There's also an email form on their webpage if you're not able to call. On a side note: I have seen phentermine as well as various forms of hydrocodone/apap fit similar ...

The hospital prescribed me hydrocdone 5 365 its white oblong pill. Then my doctor prescribed me hydrocodone 5 365 but its white with red specks and a v on one side. Are they the same? I have just taken the rest of my white oblong pill and I'm wondering if I will be ok to take the speckled ones. I didn't know whether they are two different pills and if I can combine the medicication together? ## Hello, Courtney! How are you? If they are both Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen, then they are the same and taking them hours apart wouldn't be considered combining them, anyway. That would require taking them together, or very close together. 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...

Okay so my mom found this pill in my sisters pocket its white and oval shaped and has orange speckles I have asked cvs Walgreens and poison control can't read any numbers on it becuz it was melted I really need to know. Its not red or pink its bright orange ## Okay found out that the red speckled turns orange after wet...its a 5 redso speckled I think vicodin. ## That is definately a medication called narco. It's hydrocodone (vicodine) and acetametaphin used for moderate-severe pain. It is also a narcotic, a synthetic opiate. I would have a chat with your sister and ask why she had this if she has no perscription... Could be a BIG RED FLAG in the area of opiate abuse/addiction. Opiate abuse will ruin her life. It makes ppl steal and lie to get what they need as the withdrawls ar...

white w/ pink specks ## White oval pill orange or red/pink specs 3604 one side- V on the other side. To my knowledge, this is 5/525 (5 mg. hydrocodone) and 525 of tylenol. Right? Well, I was prescribed the different - looking pill last time and it was a white oval with M365 or something..no specks. Very strange that these new speckled ones don't seem to work AT ALL. Anyone have any ideas on these? How can I resolve this with my practitioner without sounding like a nut? thanks! ## Yes, these tablets are listed as containing 5mgs of Hydrocodone, and 325mgs of Acetaminophen.
