OK, I have 85 pills that are ABG 10 ..... little round bi-convex painkillers

From what I can find, the only currently made ABG's are all Morphines. The info here seems to show that the ABG 10's are Oxycontin 10mg pills that were discontinued by Watson.

Am I correct in this, and if so...how long ago do you think they discontinued them

I kinda want to be 100% sure....cuz I hate morphines

i'm pretty sure you're correct...

i have seen other oxycontin pills...40mg (orange), 80mg (greenish blue), so if they are white i think you are correct about them being 10mg oxycontins. (10 on one side and ABG on the other). i'm 95% sure, but i could be wrong. hope that helped

Yeah, if you search through

Yeah, if you search through previous threads, there is alot of talk about it. Earlier this year Purdue made agreements with all the other oxycontin manufacturers and all the other ones will be phazed out. All that will be left is Teva generic and Purdue brand oxycontin.

As of right now all generics

As of right now all generics have been discontinued except for the teva brand however I have been led to believe that by 1/1/08 the teva will be discontinued also and will only have the name brand by purdue
