Walgreens Oxycodone Brand

Walgreens new Camber 5mg Percocet is not coated. Blue dye is bitter, upsets stomach and stains tongue. Pharmacist stated I wasn’t supposed to place pill on tongue. He stated ALL Tylenol is bitter. Told him I’d have to suck on a Tylenol to experience this taste. Does anyone know what blue dye is for? Also, this brand, from India, relieves pain, if at all, for maximum of 2 hours. What a rip-off! Who handles quality control in India? If they’ve setup shop here, it’s to import this crap legally. Husband has same problem w/Camber’s10mg Percocet, but atleast they r coated. ## Hi Caren, Lets answer your questions one at a time. Blue dye is used to color the pill, think of food dyes. The reason that the pills are colored is because the FDA ensures that medication i...

The pharmacy that I use changed my brand of Oxycodone every month. Where can I find a pharmacy that stocks the M F brand that I am used to taking? And why to different brands have a different effect on me? Some brands seem to work better than others. ## not sure if you are talking about the medicine that's stamped with an M (mallinckrodt)if u are most Walgreens carries them. ## MF stands for “my failure.” Oxycodone is the worst drug to get dependent on. So whoever takes it I feel bad for you. Cuz I broke 7 ribs in a car accident in the passenger seat ... from the airbag. So I had to be on bed rest for 8 weeks. While getting 30mg blue roxicodone. I was taking multiple times a day. Anyways, I always get the weird generic company and find out that they are exactly the same....

So this s what I heard. The Walgreens brand that everyone was accustomed to was a Watson product and apparently a lot of their distribution was in Puerto Rico. The Hurricanes that hit the area in PR affected the distribution and production of Oxycodone at Walgreens. I went to almost all of there stores in mid December without any luck finally I resorted to CVS which had a Mallinkrodt product. Walgreens had to resolve their shortage as they were losing customers that 10 day period they negotiated with Camberwhich is actually a company from India that just set up shop and company in New York September of 2017. So I don't know if that is the product they are sticking with until Watson products become reliable or if they signed a contract. All I can say is I hope they have higher qualit...

Does any one know where in SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA I can get my prescription for oxycontin 80mg filled? Unfortunantly every walgreens or safeway pharmacy that I have been to no longer carry the gereric brand (OC) only the new brand(OP) which is horrible. Please help me find somewhere that possibly have back stock of the OC generic version. ## The Oxycontin with the OC marking was not a generic, that was the name brand manufactured by Purdue Pharma and the reason you are having trouble finding it is because they have stopped manufacturing it and have replaced it with the new formulation that has the OP marking. Pharmacies were able to sell the original, until their stock ran out, then they had to switch to the new formulation. Many people are having problems with the new formulation, t...

Hi there, Who among us was getting generic percocet by actavis mfr up until walgreens switched to Camber mfr. (RECENTLY) Well...here,s my question....We were getting generic actavis and for many of us, it helped us. I think all of us have heard that a "BRAND NAME" Holds it's patton for 20 years? Then, it goes generic..RIGHT? Well, I have been told by numerous places that the "GENERIC ACTAVIS PERC" went to a "BRAND NAME" How in the world does that happen??? How can a generic suddenly go to a brand name that insurance will not cover? Think about that.... ## The patent is held for 18 years, but there can be some exceptions that allow for additional time, or for a generic to come to market sooner. And no, a generic does not become a name brand, a generic stays a ...

I need to know what the best generic brand name is for oxycodone 15mg is? ## Hello, Derek! How are you? They are all equivalent, but for various reasons, some work better for some people than others. The only thing you can really do is try the one that your pharmacy has available and see if it alleviates your pain. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Several of us have found the oxycodone manufactured by ZyGenerics to be very effective. We are unable to purchase this brand at Walgreens, Safeway or Kroger stores. Suggest you look for a smaller independent pharmacy that can carry the products they choose. Walgreens, Safeway, and Kroger are pushing pain products by KVK Tech Inc. that we have found to be absolutely "poison pills". Suggest you stay away from their products if ...

This all seems to have started around the same time Darvon was pulled from the shelves with nothing to replace it. (Darvon & Tramadol combined was finding some success in providing relief for fybromyalgia) I gave up on trying to get Walgreens to fill prescriptions for Oxycodone/Oxycontin. After trying Walmart, several Publix, CVS & most of the Walgreens in my area, I am trying the Morphine based product MS Contin instead. I had an allergic reaction to the generic brand and am now on day 2 of the manufactor's and am experiencing similar problems. The conversion formula from Oxycodone to Morphine isn't reliable either. Meanwhile, the local Walgreens are now out of Adderall going on 2 weeks, because the company that makes it (Corapharma & Barr make the two generics) app...

Is the pink oxycodone 10mg tab imprint K 56 time released or instant release? ## Hi coolhandbart, How are you? From what I could gather, the round pink oxycodone marked "K 56" is a 10mg INSTANT RELEASE tablet, manufactured by KVK Tech. I've actually seen a few people on here leave terrible complaints about this particular manufacturer not working as well as others, so I'd be curious to know if you've experienced a similar reaction in comparison to any other brands or generics you may have taken? Hope this helps! ## They are absolutely terrible ! I myself have somewhat studied them after receiving them now for the 2nd. month at Walgreens . For a few years I had been receiving Activis Brand and they worked quite well for me. Today when I recieved them for the 2nd. mont...

I used to request Watson brand esp with soma. I had my script filled and the brand dispensed was Actavis and I think it's weak. I am not a fan and trust me, I'm an expert on the good and bad brands. This is supposed to be the company that bought Watson which is a drag BC I can't find my soma's anymore unless Walgreens carries them. Actavis is a weak, short acting pain pill. My suggestion is to ask what brands they offer and avoid this one. At least for me, if you have a high tolerance, this is to be avoided. If you can't avoid it, then sucks for you. Good luck but an fyi from a pain pill consumer. There's other choices. We should have a funeral for good 'ol Watson meds. They were well made! ## I prefer actavis and have my pharmacy order it for me... Watson an...

I usually always took a different brand of percocet 5/325. My new dr called my script into Walgreens (usually i went thru hy-vee). I have been taking the Actavis brand since 4/18/16. I went yesterday to my dr. She evaluated my urine to check the opioid level. I got a call this morning from her- there is NO OPIOID in my system at all! I have been taking percocet for years due to a bad auto accident years ago. I took the pills to Walgreens, she would call dr and call me. She did-tried to tell me i hadn't been taking them! Basically called me a liar! Does anyone know where/how i could get these pills analyzed? Please let me know- {edited for privacy}. Thank-you

I used to get oxycodone 5mg in a green and white capsule. It worked within 1/2 hour and the effects lasted for hours and were very pleasant. One day, when I needed a refill, Walmart was closed, so I went to Walgreens. The pill is different (a round, orange tablet) and had the suffix IMM REL in the title. Not only does the pill not have the same pleasant effect (it makes me nauseous and dizzy) but it takes almost two hours to work. What does IMM REL mean, and does this have anything to do with its effects? ## IMM REL stands for Immediate Release, meaning the medication is released very soon after you take it, as opposed to a regular tablet which can take over 20 minutes. So, technically, this tablet should work fast. I am concerned, however, with the fact that you are enjoying the so-cal...

Have taken my Prescriptions to Walgreens called walmart and Cvs and not only do they not carry the dose they wont fill them.i just moved to Dallas TX from Aurora Co.Where can i get them filled? ## I am having e same problem I contacted sandoz and they said they had been recalled. I know what u r going thru the other brands are not any good they don't stick to your skin. ## . Call cvs in beltline and jupiter. pharmacy does contain Mylan brand patches.

They also have the Other meds that you are requesting in stock ## Unless its an of state script. Then you need to go to QVL pharmacy. ## Duragesic is WAY TOO expensive, I use the Mylan patches and they are av...

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!

Good morning or afternoon all... Some years ago I was prescribed Oxycodone. Chronic lower back pain and in both legs. Had AFIB...hospitalized for weeks. Then developed blood clots. Asked doc to take me off of Oxycodone. Too strong. Tried Tramadol. Body didn't like it. Tried another. Still issues. Went to Hydrocodone / Acetaminophen 7.5 / 325. Better. Then tried Aurobindo. For me, it is great! 4 years now. No side effects, etc. A few months back Aurobindo was discontinued. Contacted the manufacturer. Might come back again, but who knows when. Anyway, I tried Mallinckrodt... body doesn't like it. Tried Rhodes...not as good for me as Aurobindo. But stuck with Rhodes. Any ideas who might still have Aurobindo? Not CVS, not Walmart, not Walgreens. Or I would try another brand. Suggest...
