William...it is very clear u r not informed on pain meds....when u should be considering u take them. There is a difference from one to the other. Its a known medical fact...not in our heads n ill leave it at that. Now...Truman...im going to assume ur asking since there arent anymore watson 10/325's since the merge with Actavis. Theres another thread on this page titled, "Watson is now actavis generic percocet 5/325 what is up with this".I advise u to go to that thread n read thru it...all of it. Its the most informative, up to date thread ive come across on here. I have tried a few diff manufacturers since the liss of Watson (they were the best with pain relief), I have come to find endocet has been the best since. Nowhere near as effective as Watson, but better than whats remains out there. Btw...endocet n brand Percocet r made by the same company.

My Watson 932, from Walgreens is now Actavis A333. I get the feeling that the A333, generic for Percocet, is made by the Jelly Belly bean company. I get the same non-relief from pain by either one. The two mfrs, Watson & Actavis, merged into some kind of pill assembling system that gave new meaning to pharmaceutical's need for profit as opposed to pain relief. A333 does not, in any way, take the place of Watson 932 in reducing spinal pain. Worse...The FDA doesn't give a damn!

CVS in Peachtree City, on Hwy 74. Josh is the Pharmacist there, he can order for you, usually takes 3 or 4 days to get them. Also my local Mom & Pop in Senoia, GA., gets them for me - overnight !

Wharf rat.....theyre not the same medications....endocet is generic Percocet, not brand Percocet. .....your body was going through withdrawals. When u change from a pain med that u have been taking awhile to a different one, ur body goes through withdrawals. Thats why u suffered that one month then all was good after. Hope that helped.

Matt...the news on Watson's being bought out by Actavis n them replacing the Watson's Percocet with the Actavis brand is old news.......if anyone doesnt know this by now, its because theyre not reading thru these threads thoroughly. ...n if someone is posting info that has been brought up already, its because they're not reading through the threads thoroughly, which is what makes some of these threads longer then necessary. ..repetitive info because people dont take the time to read all the posts.....more n more people would find the answers they seek or info that would help them if they would just read through the posts. I hope whoever is reading this n new to a thread, this one or another, they read all the posts in the thread before they ask a question or add what they know.

The endo712 are the best. The Watson are probably second best. I have since been put on 30mg er and these are the best for long term chronic pain. One pill every 10-12 hours is best of all. It truly works for degenerative joint disease and every other pain. Truly helps to live a normal life.

any two people are not the same. each is unique. far more people find problems with generics that give you 7.5 mg instead of the expected 10. If you are having good luck with whatever you take, good for you. Not for us.

Endocet is made by same company as Percocet. It is the same pill as Percocet and is, in my opinion, the best generic. However, I have had trouble getting the Endocet for the past three months. Was told by my pharmacist that it was on backorder and when it comes back on the market, it will be prohibitively expensive. I have had two different "generics" in this three-month period and have suffered many side effects. I am now taking a Watson 825 but it does not control my pain as effectively as Endocet or Percocet. Anyone else experiencing this problem. I am only allowed two per day for break-through pain and believe me, my pain clinic knows if I take more. I have to take in my prescription bottle and they count the pills I have left. Anyone know anything about when Endocet will be back on the market?

bat - Endocet is back on the market, but the pharmacies don't want to order it because it has gotten more expensive, & insurance co.'s are still wanting to pay the old price ! My local CVS will order it for me, thank goodness, but my local Mom & Pop shop won't - they showed me on paper how they are losing $, because as it was they were only making $3.50 on my 90 day Rx as it was, now they would lose $50.00 if they filled it ! Not conducive to staying in business, is it? It took me 4 days of driving pharmacy to pharmacy before I found one the would order it 'Only' monthly for me - don't know what to do if they stop, or if there's another price increase !! This really bites the Big One !

Endocet is the exact equivalent of Percocet as it is made by the same drug company and is their generic. It is much cheaper than brand but reacts exactly the same way. However, in my area, since the government intervened because of acetaminophen and possible liver damage, it is impossible to find the 10/650. The 10/650 was perfectly acceptable and I have no liver damage from using it so it must be only the ones that abuse the pill that have liver problems. I have been taking it for break-through pain (Pain a pain block and patch doesn't control.) for over 15 years for a permanent injury. I also have periodic blood work to ensure my liver is okay. So I have been taking Watson generic which makes me extremely nervous and cranky. Guess I will go to the Endocet 10/325 and hope it controls my pain.

Endocet is better as it is the generic made by Percocet. Although some people like it, I have side effects of nervousness, shaking hands and grouchiness when taking Watson. Since I can't get any other brand any more in the 10/650, I guess it's Watsons or nothing in this strength. I think I am going to switch to the 10/325 if Endocet is still making this strength.

I received these this past 5 days and they don't even work as well a just an advil. They are weak I have even tried taking 2 10/325's they are worthless! Will never use this brand again.

I have taken Watson 932 for YEARS now, & never had a problem. But today, my pharmacy was completely out of them. They called the other Walgreens stores in the area, & they were also out! First time this has EVER happened to me, in all the years I've been on pain medication. I had back surgeries in the past, & still have a lot of spinal issues, from sciatica, to bone spurs, to degenerative disc disease, to herniations, to facet joint arthritis.... Legitimate need for medications. I take AS DIRECTED, & NEVER get "high". I do not support recreational drug use.

However, today, I had to use CVS. They gave me Endocet. Yellow oblong-ish pills. I didn't think TOO much of it, until I looked at the packaging. My Watson script is normally $262.00 that my insurance pays. This Endocet only cost my insurance $74!!!! I am scared that it means the Endocet is crap, & that I'm going to spend the next 4 weeks in pain ): That my holiday season is going to spent unable to get out of bed ):

If Endocet is supposedly the best generic, why is it the cheapest?

Try roxicet 30mg if you can find a Dr and or Pharm that will prescribe and fill. Significantly more effective for acute chronic pain. Be aware, this is a strong Rx. And there's no where to go from here. Personally I've had good luck with Perc for short acting breakthrough followed by Opana or Meth for long acting. And Soma to help with muscle spasm. Diag: 4&5 lumbar stenosis with severe bulge in 4th. Still suffer from lower left hip and extremity pain. Hope this helps

Yes there is a very big difference. I've been in pain management for 18yrs. Watson has a faster hit reaction time than endoc. watson also gives the feeling that endo does not. Every pill made has its own unique difference.

Endocet 10/325 are not discontinued my Rx has confirmed. There are just drug stores who say "We only get what we can". My Rx has always carried E712. My mom just didn't take the time to care after I gave her the empty bottle, I just hope they continue to carry them and I won't involve her or anyone who thinks that they're all the same again...."let me have those round yellow 230 pills with the strange C on the back": so sad what I went thru two different months (hope that no one never has to relive what I went to~I so wanted to move to a medical marijuana State). MY Watson Rx has trouble with the 932's, even Walgreens now a days. So if Watson is your brand ask and check your sack before leaving! Some people it doesn't matter they just don't have as much sensitivity to pain as others do

my pharmacy had watson back in stock today. so happy!!!!

I was afraid I'd have nothing, since I'm allergic to endocet. (medically documented allergy) it says right on my hard script, that I'm allergic to it so I should never have to worry about accidentally ending up with that cheap garbage again.
