For Chronic Pain "My regular white oblong oxycodone 10/325 helped me go back to work and be able to get up in the morning without assistance, still a lot of pain but my med made it tolerable. This month Walgreens gave me a round yellow pill, I called and asked they said it’s the same but a different brand. It is NOT the same. These are in no way helping like my regular AT ALL. Now I know why I’ve been nauseated, headaches and lots more pain. This is awful. I will change pharmacies before I take these again, now I have 3 more weeks with these. How awful this is!!! It’s NOT the drug it’s the MANUFACTURE Alvogon . I’m in so much pain after taking these like I took some aleve or something ."

Percocet 10/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "I have stage 4 ovarian cancer and chemotherapy did not work. My pain medication was increased from 5 mg to 10mg of hydrocodone, which was not working and life was miserable with both back and abdominal pain. My doctor switched me to 10/325 Percocet and the difference is astounding. I cannot remember the last time I went without pain for the day and I do not care if I stay on this for the rest of my life. What a wonderful difference to my well being!"

Endocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "Chronic neck and back pain from congenital stenosis and degenerative disc disease which also create bad arthritis. Started with activis 10/325 generic Percocet and worked great. About 1 year later they switched to Camber and Mallnkrodt (however it’s spelled). They are both bad. The Mallinkrodt start strong and great pain relief, but only for 2-3 hours if lucky. Found out I could request any special medication I wanted. So after I heard that I immediately googled, who had the best generic for Percocet for about 3 hours. Found out about 75% of everyone said ENDOCET was the best. And that makes sense, since Endocet is Percocets own generic (weird they’d make their own generic). And Endocet is definitely the best I’ve had and I’ve had a lot of generics, and the original, Percocet; Endocet is basically Percocet. "

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain "Whenever I am in pain, this is my go to medication. I have a back, shoulder, neck, and foot injury and by rights should be on this medicine for chronic pain. For right now I only take it very rarely so that it works when needed, to avoid a tolerance. Because I am not working I am able to deal with the pain, however when I go back to work, I will most likely have to go on this medication or a similar one full time. The only thing I do not like is the fact that many of these narcotic pain medications contain tylenol, asperin, or ibuprofin which makes your kidneys, liver and other organs go through unnecessary stresses. I prefer it to be just oxycodone and if I need the synergy of tylenol I can add it on my own."

For Chronic Pain "I’m on Percocet 10 for years. I was switched to the Mallinckrodt I knew they made me sick but I wasn’t told about the switch. I had to take them all month. Years ago, my father in law built a pharmacy building. I got to know the pharmacist and her son on a casual basis. I got my Percocet there one month. I asked the Pharmacist son why they carry a medicine that makes some people have stomach problems. This is what he said. “It’s strictly business. We’re allowed to purchase a pill with 100 % active ingredients but as low as 20% less.” It’s now 30% less. It is sad that Mallinckrodt was allowed to take 30 % of active ingredients out of their formula and makes us sick . Hang in there . Chronic patients . We worked all our lives and got hurt etc. and just want out of pain and a normal life. Thanks"

For Chronic Pain "I am experiencing the same results from the generic brand Mollinckrodt from walgreens. I have been on 7.5-325 MG oxy for my back and neck pains and chronic migraines. I know when I am taking effective medication and these are not. If the generic brands are ineffective, what are the pharmacies doing about it? Something needs to be done and the FDA needs to take note that not all people on opioids are addicts or druggies. We are in pain and need help not judgement. Please address the issues with the generic brands of oxy. Thank you in advance."

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain "I'm 30 years old and I have 3 degenerated discs in my spine and a pinched sciatic nerve. Until I found percocet my life was horrible. I couldn't even sleep it hurt so bad. Now I can live my life again."

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "3 back surgeries resulting in severe chronic pain. I have been taking Percocet 5/325 for over 10 years. 2 to 3 tabs daily and it enables me to do gardening lawn care and other chores around the house. It really allows me to do more and have a better quality of life."

For Chronic Pain "I've been taking Oxycodone 5mg for 13 years. For pain from car accident and other medical conditions. Anyways, I normally go to CVS to get my prescription filled the pills are normally marked with a 512 and they are white and round BUT now when I go to CVS the same one that I have been using for years always has the excuse, Sorry sir we don't have enough to honor the prescription or sorry sir we have to order them and it will be a few days. I started going to a MA-PA Pharmacy across the street, they do give me rough time about filling a prescription 2 to 4 days early and they always have the medications I need. But the pills I get from them have an ALV 196 when I take them they do not give me the relief I would get from the other Oxy pills that have 512 on them. I thought they were all the same thing? Am I wrong? Appreciate any feedback. Also feedback from anyone if they have similar issues with CVS giving you excuses about not having your pain meds."

Roxicet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "I too have had chronic pain after terrible accident and have been on pain medication for decades. When I take CAMBER OXYCODONE HCL 15 MG they made me sick from withdrawal, nausea, diarrhea, chills, aches, no pain relief and stuck on them for.a month - is there any active ingredient in these. Tell your pharmacy to NEVER give you that brand again. If a chain, DRIVE TO ANOTHER to find different brand and PLEASE REPORT TO FDA. I have reported this terrible worthless drug to FDA. The more reports they get then maybe they will inspect further, and hopefully do tests on how much active ingredients are in them. I have refused this brand with my pharmacy. I am so sick from them and in terrible pain - I just can't function but have to use them for this month. DEMAND FDA do something. Please please report. There is a shortage of opioids thanks to junkies not us people in chronic pain who do what we are told. But if FDA don't stop this company we may be stuck with only being able to get these TRASH, USELESS PILLS!"

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "My experience began when I was a child. I had very strange headaches, eventually diagnosed as "ice pick migraines" They had all the symptoms of the normal migraine you hear about, except, they were so painful, my feet would draw up, my eyes would roll back, and I went almost stiff from the pain....nothing helped. When I hit my thirties, I started having issues with my spine, my pancreas, and my kidneys. Percocet is the only therapy out there that keeps me from wanting to die. My blood is thinner, and I have issues as stated, with my pancreas and stomach, so I cannot take OTC drugs, they make me sick. Very sick. But, of course, no one believes that until they see what happens to me. Its kind of a living hell. I say if we can help, help."

Primlev (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "According to my pain Dr, companies have a 20% allowable variance in the active ingredient. That is horrible ! ! ! So they put me on a brand of oxycodone / acetaminophen, called PRIMLEV 10/300, and it has been AMAZING ! It actually works. Have tried all the other manufacturers and this one blows them all away"

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "As someone constantly in pain from sports injuries and just general pain from working out 4-5 times a week, minor sciatic recurring pain in my legs, and with no options to discontinue my weekly workout routine Percocet is perfect. Never has Percocet made me loopy, stupid, tired, or out of control. In fact, I feel more energy when I take Percocet, and I am able to not only make it to the gym but get a much more effective workout. As a 36 year old with very low level high blood pressure concerns, family history of heart problems, family obesity history, a history of being over weight myself, and adult ADHD, I have no choice but to workout! Percocet allows me to do so, while working and living a normal life. Thank you Percocet."

For Chronic Pain "Started going to Walgreens for medicine because it's preferred by my insurance. I was getting acetaminophen with oxycodone through CVS but a different brand other than Mallinckrodt and they were working halfway decent. These from Mallinckrodt with 10/325 and M523 on the other side are like taking a placebo. It takes more than what I was taking and I was starting to lower my dose down for breakthrough pain. I'm not getting as much pain relief as I was before on the other brand that was white and round carried by CVS. I've had a bilateral mastectomy for breast cancer with complications that left me in chronic pain. Then I got thyroid cancer that required thyroid removal that increased my pain. I've had problems breathing with feeling like my throat is closing. I thought it was just me until I came here. Report it to the FDA!"

For Chronic Pain "This T 194 (Camber Pharmaceuticals) pill claims it is oxycodone/acetaminophen 10/325 however it definitely does not feel like it. I would have rated it a zero on a scale of 1-10 but it made me choose a one as the lowest score. I have taken many various brands of percocet over the years and have never once felt like I did with this pill. It did absolutely NOTHING! How in the world can this be okay? It's not like buying these off the street like heroin and don't know whats in it. This is a prescribed medicine people are getting from their pharmacy. How is this happening? Who checks/regulates this stuff? Does no one check to make sure these ingredients are really what is being put into the pill? I can't believe that this could happen until I got on here and started reading all these comments other people put about the same problem. Is there something that can be done? This is just plain wrong. Any advice would be great."

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "I have many spine health issues and as a result, experience the joys of chronic back pain. This medicine works well for moderate pain for me. I did build up a tolerance for it pretty quickly, however, which is typical for any pain medicine. Bad side effects I experienced were debilitating nausea and hot flashes when it was taken on an empty stomach. Also, the all-over "itchies," when I first started taking the medicine. Both of these can be prevented by eating with the medicine and taking an antihistamine with it."

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain "Taking 5/325 acetaminophen & oxycodone every 6 hrs for intense tooth pain after oral surgery. Had never taken an opioid before, this was truly a lifesaver for me. Took my pain from a 10 to a 3. Also taking 3 Ibuprofen every 6 hrs (alternating). My doc says if pain is brutal I can go to 10mg every 6 hrs, thats 2 pills. Im trying to avoid that but suffice to say this stuff works quite well for me. Pop a stool softener once in awhile."

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "I have been on Percocet for 16 years I started out with low-grade Vicodin I have taken name brand with no problems when they switch me to generic I had some problems with the way they affected me they didn't seem to work as good but when they switch the generic brand to another generic brand I had an upset stomach and a very bad rash sometimes you have to take the name brand instead of generics even though they say the generics are the same they are not I could tell the difference but I have tried Oxycontin and had a very bad itching and a rash so I guess I'm stuck on then I have days I take more than I'm supposed to in the morning and do with out later but the pain is so bad it's almost suicidal"

Percocet 10/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "I think it's ridiculous that uncle Sam would attempt to limit the use of this drug simply because people MAY form an addiction to it. Percocet is really a life saver because it's probably the only drug available to control chronic pain for those that suffer through it. It's like too many things these days where people will figure out a way to abuse something and then the powers that be limit it or completely outlaw it's manufacture and use for those that rely so heavily on it. Why should the innocent suffer simply because another person intentionally puts something in their bodies that isn't good for them?"

Percocet 10/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "As a sufferer of chronic pain for 15 years, I finally feel better. Recently, I blew out my shoulder and have severe neck issues which unfortunately I need surgery for both. Don't know if it's just me but Mallinckrodt pills with the imprint M 523 have finally been the medication that has and is saving me from a deep dark depression. Thank God there are the means to do this now with insurance benefits from work because had this been 9 months ago, I'd be totally screwed. This is on top of all the chronic pain I've suffered for so long. Went through it the past 6 or 7 years without medication needed. These 2 newer injuries are absolutely kicking my ass. These pills in particular have been godsent so much so that my pharmacist promised that these pills that I'm speaking of, M 523, would be what they give me from here on out. Strongly recommend these for sufferers out there."

Percocet 10/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Chronic Pain "I am 68. I have pain in my back and legs every day which is worsened by standing or walking, so I sit almost all the time in my recliner. I go to a pain clinic and have tried Morphine, Fentanyl, and Dilaudid. None of these helped. In fact, at higher dosages they actually made the pain unbearable. Percocet is the only med that works for me, and when I first took it I felt like it was a miracle. I am prescribed Percocet 5x a day, Tizadine for spasms and Tramadol for breakthrough pain. I can actually garden outside again and have once again become active. I jjust hope I don't develop a tolerance because the doctor said this is as high as I can go, and I don't know where else I could turn. Percocet has truly given me my life back!"

For Chronic Pain "I refilled my pain medication prescription and it is not effective The pills looked different so I called the pharmacist who informed me the manufacturer has changed in the last week or so and now they have the Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals brand. I took one and waited an hour and a half, it did not work, then I took another. I am still in considerable pain and unable to sleep. My medication is usually effective. It is a strong dose and I do not want to increase the amount nor the dosage.: They told me the manufacturer was changed by Walgreens and they have no control over who they purchase from, The staff is wonderful, there are no issues with the staff. As a consumer, I am notifying you that the new supplier product is not effective. I appreciate your help. I have been a loyal Walgreens customer and would hope to have issues resolved other than change pharmacy My medication is the Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals Oxycodone 10/325 The pill is white and has writing one side 10/325 and on the other M523. The pills I took previously from Walgreens were an off white yellowish"

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain "This medication was a lifesaver after cancer surgery. I took one pill every six hours as needed 10/325. I was able to sleep, walk, and eat after surgery. I am not taking it anymore, my doctor gave me sixty. I have thirty left I will use those if I ever need them again."

For Chronic Pain "I’ve never looked up a medication before but I have chronic arthritis of the spine and it’s only getting worse. I didn’t look at my medication I just assumed it was the same as usual. I always take a half dose in the morning and half a dose approximately every three to four hours through out the day. I only need 25-30mgs a day to get me through my day. Well today something was off. I started feeling so much pain, I had stomach cramps, my spine and shoulders could barely move. I couldn’t believe I was taking another half a dose within another hour and a half. Then I felt nauseated. I took the bottle and looked at the pills and saw they were not the same. I am a half a dose away from my full daily dose and feel NO EFFECTS from this medication. I just took an entire pill, something I haven’t done since my spine surgery 5 years ago. I can barely move and my legs are starting to ache. I thought they gave me placebos so I looked them up. I will no longer get my prescriptions at CVS."
