Difference Between Yellow Hydrocodone Acetaminophen With 1096 Vs White Pill Same Strength But U03. Both Say Sub For Norco. (Page 2)

Updated

Just want to know difference between both pills, beside Manufacturers. I was taking Hydocodone-Acetaminophen 10-325 yellow pill #1096 on one side a V on other side. I was then switched to a white oval pill with the same strength, but has U03 on one side. both say substituted for Norco.

BL, thank you for your response. After I made the post, I realized the post I made was in relationship to an older post (maybe 2 yrs. old). My prescription is for 10/325. Sometimes physicians also may prescribe 800 mg Tylenol for inflammation and a patient would really need to be aware of the amounts they may consume.

The drug cartel have us over a barrel. We don't know what we are taking or if its any good. Get a lot of my medicine out of Canada at a fraction of the cost. An American drug supplier told me I didn't know the quality of the Canadian stuff. But one of the drugs had the Sandoz trademark stamped on it. I asked myself "What does he know?" We in the United States are getting scammed badly and no politician taking up for us.

Sandy J , Tylenol isn't prescribed for inflammation. Drugs like Ibuprofen and Naproxen are among two of the anti inflammatory meds. Ibuprofen comes in 800 mg by prescription.

Hi all, I have been taking 3 to 4 Hydrocodone 10/325 (used to be 10/500) the difference between 325 and 500 is the amount of acetaminophen/Tylenol which in large amounts over time can be very dangerous. Now, to address the real difference on the narcotic pain relieving portion of the very controversial medication. The basic question is Yellow vs. White. Pharmacists will argue with you that the active ingredient (hydrocodone) is exactly the same and I did my fair share of the argument, lol. That just draws attention from other customers in the pharmacy, which makes you look like an addict. All we want is the most effective pain relief available in what our legitimate Doctors have prescribed for us! In conclusion, I have been recently introduced to a simple theory which makes sense to me. The test: Try to break a yellow on and then a white one. I broke both, but the yellow was much harder than the white. The white seems to break as easy as a piece of chalk. Conclusion: The acid in the digestive system which breaks down the white pill will dissolve it much faster, maybe giving the person a faster relief, but leaves the body much quicker and very possibly not giving the full 10mg hydrocodone. The yellow on the other hand, while not regarded as "time release", compared to the white one, can result in a drastic difference in the quality of the medication. Only the small portion of chronic pain patients can relate to this because we have to take this type of medication for long periods of time. We still live in a society that easily discriminates against what they don't understand. WE MUST CHANGE THIS! #helpchronicpain
