Watson 3203 White In Color

Watson 3203 pill, white with orange specks. Never seen them before today. What are they? ## Orange specks? I've seen pictures of the WATSON 3203 tablets, and they've either been solid white or orange, but not with specks. According to the inscription you posted it should be a pain killer containing Hydrocodone 7.5 mg + Acetaminophen 325 mg (basically a generic Norco). Now, the tablet with WATSON 3202 matches your color description more closely, and is in fact a similar drug containing the same amount of Acetaminophen, but with 5 mg of Hydrocodone instead of 7.5. NDC code 0591-3202. Can I ask which one is it that you are seeing?

Hi I have a serious question to ask. I have been on Norco 10mg/3.25mg for a while now because I have chronic pain in my back. These pills that I take are yellow in color, and they help a great deal. However, I got my meds filled, and this time I got a white pill that reads on one side Watson 3203, and on the other side a straight line down the middle. This pill has the same mg as my yellow Norco do. Here is the question. Why does this pill not help my pain? What ingredient has been took out. of the white watson 10mg/3.25mg pill? I have read were other people are having the same issue as me. Plus this is not the first time I have got this watson 3203 white pill, and each time I do it does not help my pain and others pain! I hope after reading this people at the watson company may read my...

Is Watson discontinuing the 7.5-325 pill ## WATSON 3203 is identified as Acetaminophen 325mg + Hydrocodone bitartrate 7.5mg. From what I could gather, Watson's website still lists this medication on their product page. However the color is different than what you described. So I do believe they stopped making the orange one. Watson 3203 is now a white oblong/oval pill with the following National Drug Code (NDC): 00591-2605. The dosage does remain the same though.

orange/flesh-colored, oval tablet ## This is Acetaminophen 325mgs and Hydrocodone 7.5mgs, a generic version of Lortab, Norco, Vicodin and others. Manufacturer: Watson Laboratories, Inc. National Drug Code: 0591-3203 Pill Size: 14 mm Watson 3203 Inactive Ingredients (orange version): -Croscarmellose Sodium -Crospovidone -Magnesium Stearate -Cellulose, Microcrystalline -Povidones -Starch, Corn -Stearic Acid -Fd&c Yellow No. 6 -Aluminum Oxide This is a narcotic, coupled with an anti-inflammatory to treat pain. Since it is a narcotic, is has many side effects, including nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, dizziness and it can be very addictive. ## Why is Watson 3203l sometimes orange and sometimes white with red specks? The orange seems too give more help.

I have in my hand two narco tablets which both look alike in size and shape one is a 7.5 mg and the other a 10 mg both are white and made by Watson the only way to tell the difference is the 7.5 mg has imprinted on it Watson 3203 and the 10 mg has Watson 853. My question is why in the hell would a pharmaceutical company make these pills look so much alike are they not afraid of mixups? If you check it out you will see why I am upset about this since they stopped putting the color onto these pills its hard to tell the difference. Someone is going to get a mix up and probably either over dose or not get enough medication for there pain. ## Hello, Jeff! How are you? I do understand your concern, but it is the markings that are used to tell them apart. If you just go by the shape, size and ...
