This question was posted on VIP and was hoping we could get a better answer over here. What prevents anyone or any pharmacuetical company in any other country from purchasing hydrocodone by the kilo, from a supplier located here , and start pill pressing their own generic? They sell internationally and their bulk price on hydrocodone breaks down to $.01/mg. What prevents a mexican pharmacy from purchasing this and compounding thier own pills? Is it agianst mexican laws to purchase this? or agianst american laws to sell abroad? It just seems strange that this drug isn't available to the rest of the world. Oh and everyone, please dont go and flood Spectrum Chemical with a bunch of bunk orders. They aren't going to fill it for you. YOU HAVE TO HAVE A LICENSE TO PURCHASE and it's illegal for you to attempt to purchase. DONT DO IT

The last time I went to Mexico, in late 2002, they did not have hydrocodone. I went to a doctor there, and he told me the closest he could come is Percodan. I was not familiar w/ the drug, so I declined a script for it. I'm not sure if my experience was the norm since I went to a town right across the border. I figured more options are available the deeper you go into Mexico. IF, and it is a bif IF, he had percodan, WTF did you say no?? Percodan (oxy and aspirin) is stronger than hydro, by most opinions. I really think he was referring to neo-percodan, an almost worthless med which is close to darvon.

As I stated in other posts, I was able to recently purchase hyrdro yellow watsons, 10/325 at a mexican pharm. They said of course, I did not need a script, it is legal to buy OTC. All the pharms I priced at had hydro, and they were all on the main strip in Cabo! Signs out front advertising it, however, they do pull it out from under the counter. Just ask, and it is there. I had my script just in case, I just did not bring enough with me, and took a good fall on some tile and jacked up my back. They were indeed the real deal! I was pleasantly suprised! Funny, the 10/325 and 5/500 were the same price, they did not seem to know the difference in the two. This question was posted on VIP and was hoping we could get a better answer over here. What prevents anyone or any pharmacuetical company in any other country from purchasing hydrocodone by the kilo, from a supplier located here , and start pill pressing their own generic?

Practically speaking, I think it has more to do with the time it takes to make up the pill. Extra help costs extra money. And if they get sick and don't show up for work, then there's a problem. It may have more to do with cost effectiveness for the business than anything else. Time is money in the business world.
