I've noticed a lot of discussion about the different Hydrocodone Brands lately. I'm curious as to what Everyone's Favorite Brand is and Why?
I know this has been discussed in the past, but it seems like more people are taking some of the newer generics such as Qualitest.
Thanks for Voting!!!

c'mon mallie, woo hoo!
I've had Watsons 99.9999% of the time, but once and only once I received Mallies and was really disappointed. Disappointed, that is, until I actually took one. The Mallies in that bottle of 10/500s were without a doubt stronger than the Watsons I had just finished or the Watsons I received for my next refill. That was my only experience with Mallies, but if they're consistent with their quality, then make mine Mallies everytime! BTW, I asked the pharmacist why they had gone with Mallies and was told because they were cheaper. She said that they switched back mostly because older patients complained that the pills were "different" than what they were used to! Different not in quality mind you, but different LOOKING! Too bad.

I Prefer the Norco Brand and Definitely notice a difference. My girlfriend just stopped taking them recently for good. She preferred the Qualitest over all the others by far when she took them. I'm surprised that Watson has the Most Votes. I thought Norco would have been closer.

The "robin eggs" 7.5/500 (with blue speckles) are by far the best. (I dont know who they're made by). But I've had every kind and 3 of these are way stronger than taking 2 10mg Norcos (or generics). IMO

I posed this comparison question to my local brick-n-mortar pharmacist, who I like and trust. She actually brought out two bulk bottles of the Watson 853s and the Norcos to for me to "visually inspect." Never has this happened to me before in a mainstream pharmacy! They don't stock Mallies or Vintage. I have one refill left on my scrip; also my drug insurance has ceased, so I had been opting for the 853s (10/325s) for the simple reason of price. The 853s are $36.94 for 50, the Norco brand is $87.00 at this pharmacy. But for the sake of comparison, for my next refill I will pony up the extra 50 bucks for the Norcos, then report back in this thread if I notice any difference.

Cixi, Check the price here with the discount card if you have to pay cash for them. In my area the price for 50 10/325 brand Norco with this card is 68.94 on the low end, that would save you around 20.00. You can print it out right over the internet and don't have to wait for the card in the mail. The generics would only be $20.00. You can price check in your area on the site. Remember also that Watson Brand generics are also made by the same company that makes the brand Norcos.
