Orange Subutex 153 (Page 3)

Updated

I refilled my monthly subutex Tuesday and received orange oblong tablets inscribed 153. My pharmacy has carried 54/111 over three years. Does anyone know if the orange ones are going to permanently replace all other generic Buprenorphine? Also, are any other patients experiencing loss in quality? Thank you

I have been on the white ones for about a year saved my life from pain pills. My insurance was covering 8 pills and i had to do another pre-authorization to get my insurance to cover a portion of them again well when I went to the pharmacy today they explained that my insurance would cover the whole prescription and that they would only cover actavis manufacturer. The pharmacist explained that it was the same exact thing and that he had to order them but it was just a cheaper manufacture and that I will now be receiving orange pills with a half moon. Very scared that this will not be the same especially after reading all these reviews

I've changed my mind on this reply I wrote. I still take and the orange ones work better in my opinion. But Bup is Bup...all the same I'm sure.

Hi Zonda,

It works the same.. In my opinion the only difference might be the taste. Had a bit of a stinging bite to it but nothing unbearable. I myself prefer the Orange now over the white ones..As crazy as it probably is, I think they last longer.

Mary, why did you decide to stay on subutex? I'm just curious if you tried to stop? You had mentioned you were weaning off in posts from last year.

Hi,
I stayed on for a couple of reasons. Like I said previously, I was addicted to pain killers for years..my doc and I talked it over and thought I was jumping the gun and didn't want to see me go back. I only get 10 subs a month now.. This is just enough to keep me happy and not have the erg to screw up. I do suffer a lot of pain and subs help with that as well. I also just found out recently I may have breast cancer...playing the waiting game right now. But no matter what happens, I will continue the subs over pk's durring treatment. I think I stay on subs for peace of mind...I'm weaker then I think.

I was in another area of the med chat..I thought it was all the same, but anyway..omg, people are so rude! It's good to be back here..you all were always so kind. I remember when I first started here and some of you really helped me out. I was called every name in the book for just giving my opinion..it was crazy! I hope everyone is doing well..it's been a while. I just wanted to say thanks again for all your support in the past.
I also wanted to say...I went from a full script to 12 a month to 6 a month to 8 a month..now I get 10 subs a month and it works out great.
Peace

The only difference will be the taste. I was in the same boat about 7 months ago or so. Anyway, all is well. I actually prefer the orange ocer the white one's, I feel they last longer.
Good luck
Peace

Sorry Sammy, I didn't answer question. I have no clue if its permanent..it depends on the cost between the 2 and what the pharmacist orders. But Different drug stores carry one or the other. If you prefer the white I would call around.
Good luck

I just got mine yesterday, I didn't think to check just assumed they would be the same..got home and first thing I realized was my meds weight went up sixty percent, I'm in the same situation. I don't know if my doctor can help but I'm showing up tomorrow morning with my still sealed bottle

MARY DO YOU WORK FOR ACTIVIST? YOU WOULD HAVE TO TO THINK THAT THE NEW ORANGE 153 ARE GOOD!!!!! lol THEY ARE BY FAR THE WORST ON THE MARKET AND SENT ME INTO WITHDRAWS I SWEAR I THINK THEY PRODUCE THEM ON THE SAME EQUIPMENT THAT MAKES SUBOXONE BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO HAVE A LOW AMOUNT OF NALOXONE. I CONTACTED THE FDA AND SO SHOULD EVERYONE WITH SIDE EFFECTS @1-800-FDA-1038. ALSO TAKE AS DIRECTED NOT HOW MARY SAYS TO TAKE 1MG OF A 8MG TABLET IF YOU ARE A NEW PATIENT TAKING THE MEDICATION FOR WITHDRAW YOU COULD RELAYPSE OR JUST FEEL MISERABLE IF YOU LISTEN TO MARY, JUST TAKE AS DIRECTED.

Yes it will be hard. If you take them exactly if not less than advised, you will detox with the least repercussions of your actions. There is no miracle cure. It will hurt, and if you are lucky and strong will come out clean and have a chance at a normal life without pharmaceutical crutches. Do the work, suffer, and put it all behind you. Don't wait, it becomes twice as hard every day you don't. Good luck stranger.

Bubba, if you are SERIOUSLY having this issue, I would go find a new doctor and a new pharmacy! For example, I flew to Florida..I'm here right now in the middle of all the mess we just had..Anyway, I left mine home except for 3 of my meds..I thought I had my bottle for I grabbed the wrong one. I've been taking very very little to get me by till I get back home and I've had NO problems. So, if you are having any kind of withdraws while taking your meds.. SOMETHING is not right somewhere.
I read such stupid comments and I'm told I don't know what I'm talking about etc...I know what it's all about trust me. I've been taking for a very long time! Again, if you are taking and having withdraws...Go elsewhere!

BC1111, buy a pill cutter with a lid that snaps shut. Break the pill in half, then the halves in half. You just have to line it up with the blade in order to get an even cut. You will have four quarters now. God bless everyone and best of luck to us all!

Don't anticipate withdrawing but I've had the same problem it took about a week of me taking the orange ones to notice that they were weaker

Wow got stuck getting the orange ones again this month. THEY SUCK. Im guessing the only way they are still around is because people cant find the ones they want so they settle on the orange ones. I have met one friend in my community who is okay taking orange. Absolutely everyone else prefers another generic weather its the big whites or the babys. Sorry Activist, you struck out with this generic big time :\
