Watson 853 - Is It Norco 10/325? (Page 6)

I got a prescription for generic norco and it has watson 853 imprinted on it. I was wondering if I am getting the correct medication or if I am being ripped off at this pharmacy? It is yellow.

My dog had 6 teeth pulled and I was going to give him a piece of a Watson 853, but I didn't know if it was considered an NSAID because of the Tylenol? I also wasn't sure how much to give him? He weighs 13lbs.

I recently got switched to the Watson 853 & it doesn't work. I had some of my other 367 left over, took them and got the relief I have been used to. I have been on the 367 for a year and noticed the ineffectiveness of the 853 immediately. That's what led me to this site, to see if I was just imagining this but as it turns out other people have had the same issue.

Why do we have to settle for Amneals besides Watsons. Why did Watson suddenly become unavailable? Is it because they were better or a stigma applied to them? I don't like the idea of being forced to get Amneals for the same price as Watson, which I considered better, even though you say the Amneal 10-325 is the same as the Watson 10-325. What's the real truth behind the change? Maybe I need something more specifically prescribed by my doctor, like brand name, or something else different with more strength?

Re: Teresa (# 101)

Sorry to hear about your dog's teeth being pulled. I sure hope he's gotten around to feeling better since the timing of your post back in October.

The Watson 853 contains a combination of Acetaminophen + Hydrocodone and therefore can't necessarily be categorized into a single drug class. Not to mention, Acetaminophen isn't a NSAID. It's actually classified as an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer).

As far as how much to give your dog, that is generally determined by a veterinarian based on the weight of your dog, severity of pain and other underlying factors at the vet's discretion.

Please post back if you have any updates to share!
