For Pain "Camber brand is garbage. Do not accept it. Tell them you want another brand. Tell your doctor it causes headaches, high blood pressure, and does nothing to the pain. They're allowed to reduce 20% of the active medicine in generics. This seems to be reduced by 75%."

For Chronic Pain "I have spinal stenosis and severe arthritis in my knees. I have taken 10mg oxycodone for over 4 years, prescribed three times a day. It doesn’t get rid of my pain, but definitely takes the edge off. I just moved and switched pharmacies to Walgreens. As many have reported, Walgreens now uses pills manufactured by Camber, and they DO NOT WORK. I had leg cramps the first day I took them and then woke up nauseous with a horrible headache. Also, my throat aches. I feel jittery. I cannot get another prescription until my time is up with these. I am a heart patient, so I am afraid of what ingredients Camber adds that cause the side effects. I reported this in full detail on the FDA website. Obviously, Walgreens makes a good profit and doesn’t want to change. I will change to a different pharmacy."

For Chronic Pain "I ended up trying these new Camber 10/325 as my usual pharmacy switched manufacturers without my knowing, and needless to say, here I am writing a review, or should I say warning? I have been on long-term pain meds for a completely disintegrating spine for 10 years now, and I have always had decent pain control by mixing OxyContin with Percocet. However, I recently experienced the craziest reaction in all of my 10 years. First, the taste of these things is very odd, almost perfume-like. I didn’t think much about it until I lost all pain control, became debilitatingly weak, had headaches, nausea, bone-racking pain, poured sweat 24/7, felt like I wanted to jump out of my skin, and basically felt like I had a bad, bad case of the flu on top of it all. THE WORST. Something is really wrong with these pills, and I submitted a complaint on FDA Medwatch. I find it very interesting that other people have been experiencing the same."

For Chronic Pain "This isn't the first site I've researched for answers to my recent experience with Camber MFG. Percocet Rx my pharmacy switched to late Jan 2018. I'd say be on notice! My pharmacy switched me to Camber late Jan. 2018. I thought maybe aggravation to my pain? But it seemed like more pain & sooner. I had been stable for years prior. Now, 2nd full refill, oh my goodness, I still had more pain but crazy symptoms I haven't had for years plus headaches, stiffness not the usual, extreme nausea, feels like throat/esophagus swollen. One day foggy, can't think at all, another feel like I'm on speed, sometimes just weird, not like me! I was ok before... with NO side effects at all. Now today open bottle & horrible smell like paint thinner & rot. I'm freaking out, this Rx is unbearable! I'm thinking of sending it to an independent lab to get tested. This smell is serious. Are they skimming the active ingredient... going to black markets?! This is serious & harming legitimate patients."

For Chronic Pain "This is a comment directed at one specific manufacturer, Camber Pharma. 31722 I have been on this strength medication for a couple of years and manage fairly well until my insurance insisted this manufacturer is all they will allow. I now get headaches and an upset stomach and do not feel it is as effective for the pain as Percocet in non-generic form. This formula just does not work and is not worth the side effects."

For Chronic Pain "UPDATE: Well, since my last poor review on T194 Chamber pills that gave me bad headaches and no pain relief. On my April refill, my pharmacist switched me back to Mallinckrodt."
