White Oblong Hydrocodone/apap 10mg/500mg V/s Pink Oblong Hydrocodone/apap 10mg/500mg

Updated

Can someone please tell me the difference in these to Hydrocodone Pills? The PINK and the WHITE? I have been taking the PINK for seven years now for break through pain and today the pharmacy gave me the WHITE ones. The last time I tried' to take the white ones, I could NOT even function, they knocked me out.

I can't really tell you anything about the difference between them, if any, without knowing the markings on the tablet to check such information.

The colors actually don't mean anything.

There is a good chance that they are the same thing, just made by different manufacturers.

Have you tried asking your pharmacist for more information?

CAn anyone please tell me the difference in the ingredients of the PINK and WHITE hydrocodone? The pharmacist told me they were the same thing, just different color, but the white ones do nothing at all for me when the pink ones seemed to take the pain away....

I agree the pink is much more effective for me also. With the white or blue I feel as if I have not took anything. I was told by pharmacy the pink is being took off the market and reproduced. :(

Interesting enough the companies are taking the coloring out of them, due to patient s being allergic to the dye. I was surprised and disappointed about the Blue Watson's says 540 on it, they are now white. I tried for the first time the white oblong 176 , those worked well for me better than the Watson's, and the pink 10/500 manufactured by Qualitest works the best for me, but I'm sure those are now white also...in conclusion these are all hydrocodone and acetaminophen in different strengths, and manufactures. Named Lortab Vicodin, Norco, just to name a few...that I have taken. I get my scripts legally and I am simply sharing my opinion and things that I do know....the...

I noticed you ere haing question's about the pink ,white,blue, the difference is the pink are name brand lortab,I have been takeing lortab over 12 year's along with other pain killer's for degenerative disk,The name brand never helped me but the blue watson's do,,,No they are all white except name brand and they are staying pink,,also the IP 119 is likeyou have took 2 tylenol,has no pain relieving effect,it is all of chronic pain patient's to tell your pharmacy what you prefer,,never let them fill your pain meds to IP 119,

you are wrong about the color being taken out because of patients being alergic to the die. this move is deep in the rabbithole concesrning something else.
