"These new White Hydrocodone are terrible, but you already know that, does the companies care? I don't think so. The yellow Hydrocodone worked like they were supposed to work, relieve the pain not make us sick. The white Hydrocodone cost a whole 1/2 of a cent less, Pharmacies do you think that your customers that get sick on this junk are worth keeping as customers? Shame on you. I guess it's more important to keep the stock holders happier. Meanwhile some of your customers are getting sick on this junk, just to save 50 cents. Customer service is getting horrible. When is it enough. Bring back medications that work, not the ones that make us sick. Isn't the point medications to help people. Some folks these white tabs work fine that's cool, but some of us they don't. Why not carry both brands."

"I been taking 367 Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals acetaminophen and hydrocodone (325 mg/10 mg) for the pain for 6 years. My doctor prescription this time I was given acetaminophen with hydrocodone (500mg/10mg) the Watson brand imprinted with 540. It’s just not the same this pill is too strong for me, makes me fill very dizzy and start sweating. Did not had any sleep entire night. Definitely the FDA has to take a look at these narcotic acetaminophen and hydrocodone and check the different brands for active ingred. and strengths .... thanks.... god bless everyone..."

"I thought my grandma was talking rubbish when she’d complain about “how bad the white hydros are.” Well, I just got wisdom tooth surgery (I am 21) and have never taken pain meds in my life. Got prescribed malinckrodt 10-325. I got more pain relief from IBUPROFEN. These are AWFUL."

"I also noticed the change in the effects that my Norco had on me. I have arthritis head to toe. Sometimes I feel I'll ache all over even tho I had taken the prescribed dosage. At times I have had to take extra to stop any pain. Usually I just feel a little nauseous but better from the pain relief. I noticed the new ones that are hard make me sick. Something definitely has changed in them"

"I have RA and fibromyalgia add to that, a L5-S1 18mm herniated disc with furs involvement and stenosis and you have someone who has to live with chronic, severe pain. Of course, most who have RA develop a higher pain tolerance than someone who suffers an acute pain episode because we deal with constant pain 24/7 and you tend to grow to accept that pain and your brain tends to help you basically hypnotize yourself into a bit of pain relief just as a mechanism of self preservation, however, the pain is still there and it’s still very painful. You just automatically fool yourself into thinking or accepting it as less. Having said that, RA patients also contend with flares (flare-ups) which not only has you feeling constant pain, you just get to add to that already constant pain with a total body pain/aching and fever which feels like a bad case of the flu with aching all over along with your already excruciating cronic pain. So, relief via pain medication is absolutely necessary"

"I went every month to Walgreen’s for brand name Norco authorized by my pain management doctor. Walgreen’s requested the drug be sent to their warehouse. It wasn’t shipped and they didn’t know why. I called Allergan who made brand name Norco and was told that Allergan sold to another that no longer makes Norco, the original drug before aka the generic versions. The generics are all bad compared to Norco 10/325 I was taking. They are full of fillers that cause health problems and less pain relief than Norco. We are in trouble. Norco and Watson were good pills that worked. They were very hard compared to generics that are soft showing the difference right away. I can’t list all the problems with Tris but the original drug decades was Norco and it was far better than any generic I tried. The worst was Mallincroft that went in the toilet. We are on our own with generics that don’t work and cause side effects. First sign of a bad generic is big and soft pills."

"I have been through 8 orthopedic operations, suffer with RA, and failed back surgery syndrome. Still, I would be able to supplement my Ibuprophen with no more than 20mg per day of Hydrocodone. Suddenly, after five years, these meds don't offer anything but dizziness, a sense of illness, fatigue; it's like their fillers are put in them to make people ill. I am scared that people could become really ill on them."

Vicodin (acetaminophen / hydrocodone) "I have been taking vicodin over 10 years and most of it for back pain. Now have osteoporosis, scolosis, arthritis and more. I have always cut the pills in half and never over used them. My dr gives me 2 prescriptions a year and I make them last. I have not had any side effects from this med and take a half most of the time. A whole one only if in severe pain. Sometimes do not take them for months depending on my pain level"
