Which is Stronger? M367 or Watson 853?

I absolutely agree with Da Purdue. The mgs's of hydrocodone could not change so the strength could not be adjusted. However, the fillers and by products that they do put it it differ from pill to pill and each person absorbs them at a different rate. So what may work faster, or seemingly better may be how your individual body is absorbing that pill. I hope this helps !!

i think it depends on the person also b/c when i was in my first wreck i was perscribed lortab 10/650s and i was getting the m 361s the blue ones by mallinckrodt pharm and they worked great. then i had to go to a different pharm b/c my regular one was out and the other place gave me watson 503s the green ones, i thought they were garbage i found myself taking a half more. so i think its just how the body breaks it down or maybe the other cutting agents they add? i dont know but i have read on here that most people call mallinckrodt junk so different strokes for different folks

Does that count as a vote, Kirby? If so, there's another one for Qualitest:)

Maybe this photo is a little clearer?  It really is a cool logo.

But I was thinking of starting the poll with US and Canadian logos.  We can always do another with 'other foreign'.  Or we can include foreign in this poll!  Whatever you all want we can do.

if she thinks the v from qualitest is so great what about the cut out v in the real valium pills, much cooler in my book.  I also think the script x on brand name xanax is really neat as well as the shape of their XR pills. We will have to do a poll with shape of pills next time.

For me, it just depends on what kind of drug it is.. for example generic xanax (alprazolam) dont work near as well as me than the non generic.. but... it's probably all in my head. I'm almost positive it's all in my head actually. :) That's just my share in this conversation..probably no help at all. *giggles*

I don't know what strength of xanex you are taking but we'll use 1mg for now....if your th blu football that said xaxex 1.0 on it or a blue football that said GG258 on it or the sigle G's or round mylan A1's, etc....they all contain 1 mg of alprazolam.

Technically, if it said Xanex on it, you should take it back. Someone gave you a non existant pill.  And, Xanax doesn't have either of those two imprints given by the OP.

This is a great question,

 

I was prescribed percocet for my back, when I went online to see if I could buy it cheaper I seen so many different prices for the same count and same dosage.

 

So when I ask my pharmacist why this is, he explained to me that generic vs name brand the generic has to be in a certain “percentage” of the name brand strength.

 

So my understanding is that generic has to be no more then 15% less then full strength and each pharmaceutical company differs with in this 15%.

 

I hope this helps.

 

 

Now I would like to also say I have not done any other research other then asking my pharmacist. And by no means am I an expert so as always asking a medical professional is always the best answer to any medication question.
