Rhodes/purdue Buprenorphine Hcl 8mg Rp B8 Vs Roxanne 54 411 (Page 58) (Top voted first)

I have made the switch from the 8mg films to 8mg buprenorphine tablets only. With all the research I've done and experience I do my best to stay away from actavis mylan and nowadays sandoz. I noticed everyone has enjoyed the Roxanne now westward generics amongst hi-tech coming in second/mylan. I have no experience with mylan bup and don't want to take the risk even as mylan has always been a waste imo. I'm not a fan of allergan (actavis) taking over watson so depending on the drug dispenses I most stay away. There are as of now 7 manufacturers of generic buprenorphine hcl 8mg (generic subutex). They are in order of my preferred with not much experience except with brand name:

*roxanne (now westward pharma)- 54 411
*hi tech- 8 ^(arrow)
*mylan- M924
*teva (allergen/activas owned) crooked b 799
*actavis- moon 153
*sun pharma- 460 white round
[And the brand new released generic made by Purdue and distributed by Rhodes Pharmaceuticals the new Rhodes generic]
*RP b8- white round bevelled and pretending edges.

I currently have had a smooth switch to the Roxanne/westward and declined mylan, actavis, teva, hi tech, sun pharma as most research and reviews conclude the Roxanne/westward generics the 54 411 seem to be best reviewed. I was unable to find the Purdue/Rhodes pharma newly released generic RB b8 imprinted generic. All I know is Rhodes and Purdue are professionals in the process of making quality meds and not just quality meds but pain relief medication, as they even were the company to CREATE oxycontin. I was able to come across one image of them on the web and they look very similar to the Roxanne 54 411s in size color and mostly shape except for the rhodes/Purdue ones protrude or kind of pop out on each side beyond the bevelled edges. They look really well made and on one side they have RP and otherside b 8 which the b and 8 are fairly far apart. I have been doing great from switching from brand films to the Roxanne westward 54 411s so far. I'm hoping to get some feedback by next month on these newly released rhodes/Purdue generic buprenorphine hcl 8mg. They are the newest and just released October 2017 and look very shinny and quality made. I'm hoping someone here who has tried both the Roxanne/westward and the new Purdue ones imprinted RP b 8 tablets. I am going to try and have my pharmacy special order the new Rhodes generics made by Purdue again imprinted RP b 8 white round shinny tablets fairly similar to the Roxanne but look better quality imo but do not have much experience with generic just brand and am very well versed on pharma companies and their medicine and their quality each one has.

Has anyone tried these new rhodes/Purdue ones imprinted RP b 8? How would you compare them to the Roxanne 54 411 tablets... I hope for a response or it will be trail and error for me when ordering Rhodes next month if i stay on this route and will see how they compare to the Roxanne/westward but will not be til a month away. Please if you have any experience with these generics and especially the new rhodes/Purdue one let me know. Again I was able to locate only one image of them and they look great. They do not look small like hi tech more like a combined Roxanne and mylan with the shininess and how they pop out on each side..they look a little larger like the mylan and Roxanne not small like hi tech or teva or activas they are round tablet imprints RP b8 with b and 8 fairly far apart. Any feedback would be great and I would want to switch to rhodes/Purdue from roxanne (now westward being a factor) generics as they make quality are new just released and approved this year 2017 of October and no one how even mentioned them yet that I can find. With westward buying out Roxanne and them making changes a new generic made by Purdue may be just the one we have been waiting for and needing..again on the 54 411 ones now and looking for feedback on the new Purdue Rhodes ones and if the switch from Roxanne westward to rhodes/Purdue would be better maybe with better quality as they have always been a great and reputable company who makes outstanding drugs. Any feedback would be great.

The Rhoads are available no matter what they say they was not prepared for the supply demand of them but a shortage is not likely to happen again... my uncle is a pharmacist at his own mom an pops chain an its cold hard facts from Cardinal Health distributors which by the way distributes to CVS Walgreens and Walmart it's their main manufacturer and distributor.

Re: Big T (# 776)

It's because they are the best most close to brand name potent generics and quality Purdue tablets. Same everyway in active and inactive ingredients as name brand subutex..I have them and left over 54411s from roxanne, and westward, and himka ones. Very big difference in alln54 411 but the Roxanne one which is vintage and equal to Rhodes generic

I appreciate your knowledge and all that but is that all you do is research generic drugs? I’m on here because I’m trying to find out why they switched me abruptly from actavis orange flavor to these wretched Rhodes RP b8! It’s like putting aspirin under your tongue for 1/2 hour..tastes awful and I cannot find actavis anywhere in my area as of 01/17/2020. Any ideas? Thanks and didn’t mean to sound b****y above, just kinda shocked as to your knowledge of generic pills. Also, I wanted to say I’m really pissed off that some bum on Medicaid can get suboxone strips non generic for free, and I pay 1000.00 a month for bc/bs and I can only get generic pills. What kind of sense does that make? I’ve been on for 11 years, yes I know, a long time but I’m living a “normal” life finally after 3 decades of hardcore drug addiction. Thanks for anything anyone can tell me.

Re: Patricia T (# 842)

Why downvote me?! You must be one of the people who are getting the strips for free! My husband worked his ass off over 40 years and we pay 1000.00 a fkng month for insurance and I can’t get anything but some generic crap?! Damn straight I’m peed off like a mfer! That makes absolutely NO KIND OF SENSE!

I was given the Rhodes Pharma buprenorphine tabs because drug store ran out of the 54-411s. I am completely dissatisfied with Rhodes because they don't give me the same positive feelings. I will ask my doc to write new rx after the July 4th holiday. The fact that the Stadler family owns Rhodes doesn't help, because I sure don't want to line their pockets.

I’ve been on the 54/411s for years and recently my pharmacy has switched over to the RPs and personally I think they are too strong. I know a few others who prefer them now as opposed to the 54s

Re: Vic (# 1033)

Yes I have! There have been legal suits about teeth falling out and rotting... I'm 62 and have been on buprenorphine since 2007. My teeth are not rotten but I'm loosing teeth. And the dentist agrees with what you mentioned. I'm getting dentures soon anyways.

Have you heard that the government is doing away with buprenorphine treatment? My Physician told me this week and said manufacturing of buprenorphine will terminate very soon. The only option will be suboxone or the patches. According to him, too many people are abusing it. Have you heard this information or am I the only one?

Oh and btw the white Xanax suck so bad. They just make me extremely tired. Nothing else. I just needed help with anxiety, not to live my life in a coma! Wish they would quit f-ing around and changing up everything!
