Morphine 100mg Er
(Newest replies first)

Updated

For months I have been taking MSER 100mg, and the shape is oblong, color is light blue and 100 is on one side and E658 on the other side. These pills have been working great. My last refill of MSER, the pills were different. they are round, either light brown or gray, 100 on one side and either a M or a W with a square around the letter. These are not effective at all. Has my pharmacy made a mistake? Can you tell me what company manufacture's each of these pills ?and can you tell me what the different ingredients are between the two? There has to be a reason why one would work so good and one seems like a sugar pill. Thank-you very much

The "M" is for drug company/manufacturer Mallinckrodt. They make opioid products cheap. The fda allows up to a 20% swing in the amount of active ingredients in prescription and especially generic drugs. with the state by state which hunt for pain doctors. BUT its not without some merit. With the epidemic of overdose and deaths from A. Bad doctors who over prescribe and B. The masses of opiod addicted patients who should have only taken oxy's a few days. A 60 count of as little as 5 MLG oxycodone is enough to addict or cause serious withdraw. I know. I am a chronic pain patient for years. My daughter stole some of my pills and between her and her boyfriend became addicts then left ..disappeared leaving there new born child who's now 6 years old and she's a prostitute turning tricks to buy their fix. I tell you all this story for a reason. Legally the 100 mg ms contins are less effective. There's also safety measure in place that prevents abuse as they can gel up and pass through unabsorbed. This is a good development since it reduces accidental overdose. KEEP in mind it doesn't eliminate O.D. so..to sum up the federal and state institutions are coming down hard on good doctors and bad ones to get you free of opioids as well as manufactures to decrease active ingredients and raise price AND drug stores only can have a percentage of scripts filled at tier 2 and 3 AND all of the above are subject to fines and jail if any improprieties are found and they are ever tightening grip on the the the few unfortunate ones who can't live without pain relief. They don't realize that when someone who's been medically dependent on opioids for years due to NO FAULT OF OUR OWN eventually when they loose their doctor and can't get a new one will die from withdraw. If the powers that be that created this issue don't figure this out my advice is invest in coffins and cemeteries.

Oh I miss my Endo MSER 100mg.I had the same problem with the different generic when Endo stopped making MSER.I am very lucky to have a good relationship with an excellent doctor and he increased my dose by 100 mg.

If your tabs are brown they are only 30 or 40mg maximum as I have been on this stuff for years due to illness and chronic pain! Hope this helps!

The tablets with the E 658 100 marking are manufactured by Endo Pharmaceuticals Inc. and the ones with the M 100 are manufactured by Mallinckrodt.

There can be differences in the amount of the active ingredient from one generic to another and, to be honest, there have been many complaints about Mallinkcrodt products being unreliable.

One thing you can try is letting your pharmacy know and ask if they can order the others ones in for you.

Are there any other comments, questions or suggestions?
