I have the 5mg roxycodone from caraco pharm and they are giving me horrible hives. Ive been on oxycodone for years and never had this reaction. First time ever taking this manufacturer. Has anybody ever had this ## Hello, Scott! How are you doing? I'm very sorry about the hives. The inactive ingredients can be completely different from one generic to another, so it might be one of them that you're allergic to. Have you consulted your doctor about the issue? This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. ## I am allergic to the fillers in generic oxycodone from Amide, Mallinkrodt, and Ethex as well as M.S. Contin by Endo. Just having the tablet (or capsule by ...

My pharmacy just refilled my oxycodone 30mg Rx with kvk tech instead of Caraco mfg. They look the same and have the same 224 imprint. Does anyone know if this is the same company and same medicine or if it is indeed mfgd by two different ones. If so, what are your thoughts? Caraco has always worked well for me, do you think I should return them? I didn't realize they did this until I drove the hour home from my dr and the pharm where I fill this Rx. ## I have been using BECAUSE you can't get a different co. around here. I have called over a big area. Does your meds have hydrochloride in it? They have changed your meds. This is so you don't feel high so they say. for me don't work for me has a lot of Tylenol in it. So see if it has ingredient in it. ## Hello, Rocky! How a...

I would like to know if this is oxycotin Caraco 187? ## No, that is a regular release Oxycodone tablet, so a generic for Roxicodone, this one contains 15mgs, to be precise. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

Is this exstended release? I can't figure it out it doesn't seem like it lasts me 12 hours but I don't know if I can take anything else because I'm not sure if they are extended release or not ## This tablet is manufactured by Caraco Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 20mgs of Oxycodone in a regular release formulation. Generally, they last 4 to 6 hours, but you should follow your doctor's dosing instructions. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

I found some pills in my son's room they were in a bubble pack and contain capsule shaped white pills in them. They also say Oxycodone Hydrochloride 30mg and are for Sun Pharmaceuticals Industrials ## Are there any markings on them? Sun Pharmaceuticals is an Indian company, but they do have some medications available on the U.S. market via FDA prescription approval under their subsidiary Caraco. Learn more Oxycodone details here. Oxycodone is a very potent narcotic opiate that has habit forming potential. Have you asked your son about them?

I got these today I feel no different than before I took them ## are the k56 pink pills are stronger than the k56 pink 10mg pills ## Hello, Talloneh! How are you? This tablet is manufactured by Caraco Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 10mgs of Oxycodone. The FDA classifies this medication as being a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Not everyone experiences a lot of side effects from any given medication. Did it relieve your pain? That is the most important issue. Shortly, I'm sorry, but I am not sure what you're asking. Can you please post back and clarify? Thank you! ## Yea, there's no "punch" to them.. I'm not expecting much...

Are the oxycodone pills white and round with 397 on one side? I have what I thought was percocet 7.5. ## A white round pill with 397 on one side and blank on the other, reportedly contains 500mgs of Metformin HCL, used for treating type-2 diabetes. For verification, the manufacturer is listed as Sun (Caraco) Pharma and the pill itself carries a National Drug Code of 57664-397. You can view an image of the pill by clicking on the NDC link above. The size of the pill is also said to be approx. 11.00 mm Hope this helps!

Don't relieve pain. Avoid them, they may have 3 or 4 mg of oxycodone in them, but only the manufacturer in India would know.sarc. ## I am very sorry that this medication didn't work for you, with some slight fluctuations in generics, not all of them work for everyone. However, the manufactured is Caraco, which is under Sun Pharma and they are actually currently based in Detroit, Michigan…not India. And regardless of where a medication is manufactured, if it is approved by the FDA and available in the U.S. it has to meet the same quality and efficacy standards as any other. Is there anything else I can help with? ## my girlfriend has been taking oxycodone 30mg for years for chronic back pain,and yesterday she filled her medication and got stuck with these horrible caraco...

The drugs store gave me these today I took 2 and what's going on is this an aspirin they do nothing I went from another company to this ## No, these are 10mg Oxycodone regular release tablets, as listed by the manufacturer Caraco Pharmaceuticals. The FDA classifies this medication as being a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. What type of effects were you expecting? Are they not relieving your pain?

I would lyk to kno the difference between a 215 and 224 oxycodone?? ## @Brindle, Both pills contain 30mgs of Oxycodone hydrochloride. The primary differences are that they are manufactured by different drug companies. "A 215" is made by Actavis and "224" is made by Caraco Pharma. The other notable differences patients should be aware of is that they each contain different sets of binders/fillers (also known as inactive ingredients). "A 215" contains: corn starch + FD & C Blue No. 2 + FD & C Blue No. 2 Aluminium Lake + lactose monohydrate + microcrystalline cellulose + silicon dioxide + stearic acid + glycolate "224" contains: lactose anhydrous + silicon dioxide + magnesium stearate + microcrystalline cellulose + corn starch + sodium starch glycola...

I have been taking oxycodone 30 milligram for about 10 years. I have neuropathy in one leg due to nerve damage,(3 back surgeries). I have been taking different brand of generic roxicodone throughout the years, but this new oxycodone 122 by CARA made me deathly ill. I thought I had the flu at first, and had called in sick at work for 4 days before finally figuring it out. Horribly NAUSEOUS with severe headache.

Is this extended release or normal release? It doesn't seem to last 12 hours but I don't know ## It's actually grey not blue sorry ## Hello, Sis! How are you? The manufacturer Caraco Pharmaceuticals lists this as being a regular release formulation of Oxycodone. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

I have a white oblong pill that has the letter C stamped on one side and 10/325 on the other side. I have tried searching it but cant find much about it. I would like to know what company manufacturers them and or which pharmacy carries them. I also was unable to find any images?!! ## A white oblong (capsule-shaped) pill with a C on one side and 10/325 on the other is reportedly identified as a 10mg Oxycodone HCL + 325mg Acetaminophen tablet, manufactured by Caraco Pharmaceuticals. I was also unable to locate an image, but a full fledged description was apparent enough for me to draw this conclusion. For further verification, you can also contact Caraco directly via the webpage for Sun Pharma (whom recently acquired Caraco). I hope this helps! ## Ive only ever seen them in yellow and ro...

I have been on Oxycodone 30 mg for several years and from several manufacturers. Recently I was given 30mg from a manufacturer called Caraco. I was taking up to two at a time followed by a third in a hour because I was not getting any relief. I spoke to my dr and explained I was going thru withdrawals and getting no relief from my pain with the meds that have always worked in the past. He went ahead and prescribed 15 mg of oxycodone so I could get a different manufacturer due to my pharmacy saying there was a shortage of Oxycodone they were not able to get any of the 30 mg due to a shortage of the drug. The only manufacturer available was Caraco. I looked them up and found they have been in trouble before for not putting the ingredient in the medicine. How can we as patients be sure we ...

Was wondering if this company made the oxyCodone 15 mg pills and if so what color and imprint would it have on it ## Based on my research, nih.gov lists Caraco Pharmaceuticals as a distributor of Oxycodone for Sun Pharmaceutical Industries (the manufacturer of the drug itself). This company's Oxycodone Hydrochloride tablets are available as follows: 5 mg: White colored, round-shaped, biconvex, beveled edge, uncoated tablets, debossed with ‘223’ on one side and scored on the other side. 10 mg: Pink colored, round-shaped, biconvex, beveled edge, uncoated tablets, debossed with ‘370’ on one side and scored on the other side. 15 mg: Green colored, round-shaped, biconvex, beveled edge, uncoated tablets, debossed wi...

I have celiac disease and I just refilled a prescription for Oxycodone 5mg Tabs. My pharmacy switched manufacturers from QLT to SUN Pharmaceuticals (the site says the generic is made by Caraco Pharmaceutical. I took one and 3 hours later I'm having gluten-like pain. The Sun-Caraco site lists the inactive ingredients as: anhydrous lactose, colloidal silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, pregelatinized starch, and sodium starch glycolate. Does anybody know if the pregelatinized starch, and sodium starch glycolate they use has gluten in it-- (wheat based rather than corn, or potato based)? ## Sun Pharmaceutical Oxycodone Tab 5mg does contain trace amounts of gluten measured at 100 parts per million.

Don't accept generic oxycodone 30mg oval blue pill with #224 imprint, they don't relieve pain like the oval blue oxycodone 30mg pills with a M imprint. ## Hello! I am very sorry that these tablets didn't work for you. However, I wonder if you may be incorrectly remembering what you've previously taken? The M logo is used by Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals and they do not have any oval Oxycodone tablets on the U.S. market. Is it possible that you were taking something different? ## Sorry I also meant to say that it has nothing to do with her building up a tolerance because she had a couple non caraco's left over from her last prescription and they worked perfectly fine. ## the first half of my post didn't get posted for some reason but what I said was that my girlfri...
