The other tablet.. DAN DAN on one side and 5381 on the other, if it was WHITE, it would be a Watson 500 mg Methocarbamol, which is generic for Robaxin, a muscle relaxer.

Yes. Percocet is the brand name.
Oxycodone and acetaminophen is the generic name (It's also the 2 active ingredients).

I might not always be right, but I'm never wrong.

First of all ETH 315 is NOT generic for Percocet, I take those, it is STRAIGHT Oxycodone instant release 5mgs, there is NO Acetaminophen in it at all, NONE!

Please double check your information before responding, by answering incorrectly, someone could be seriously harmed! Geez, Lapislazuli, if you look at the link that YOU posted, you will see that you are incorrect, it is not generic for Percocet, and there is no Acetaminophen in it! It is generic for Roxicodone which is an instant release Oxycodone! Geez!

My information is not guaranteed correct. I do not get them right all the time, but I do enjoy the hunt~

Sorry, my bad.

(My husband's doctor told us that's what it was, and I looked up the link. I won't be so quick to take his word for it next time.)

Sorry for my rant, I just worry about someone taking something, and thinking they know what it is, only to get a surprise, sorry I blew up on you.

He probably confused it with Roxicet (Just like Percocet), which is a combo of Oxy and Acetaminophen.

I have run into some uninformed docs before, and generally would like to slap them. LOL! Especially the time that one prescribe one to my DH that could have killed him if used with the other meds he was on. And of course, he had no reason not to know what DH was on, as we always use the same doc!

Lapislazuli,
Zippy was yelling more at me than at you. As she said, when your in this "business", you need to convey the correct info, and I messed up , twice. First, I assumed you had given the correct info and didn't back-check it and 2) I did a stupid thing and said that percocet is the same as oxycodone, when my response clearly shows that Percocet is 2 products and not just the oxy(it's like saying that Fords and mustangs are the same).

Oh, and thank you Zippy for setting us straight.

You are welcome for my providing the correct information.

I should still have been more tactful though. Sorry about that.

Yes, I was surprise that you didn't double check it, you don't usually do that kind of thing Rawoody!
