There really is NO difference between Watson and Mallies, when talking about effectiveness. My wife gets prescribed 5/500 Mallies from her own Primary Care Physician. She gets 120 a month with 5 refills. I tried them myself an know what one pill feels like. It's pretty darn effective. Then I was curious as to what 2 pills taken together would feel like because alot of people take the 10Mg of hydro instead of the 5. Sometimes I need that amount. Well I tried it and it almost knocked me on my arse!! Wow! Talk about powerful. I've also tried the Watsons as well and they are equally effective. I find, however, the Mallies to be a little softer than the Watsons, which are a little harder (read below).

Look!! Hydrocodone is hydrocodone is hydrocodone. The other active ingredient in this pill that propells the hydrocodone is APAP (which is acetaminophen, aka Tylenol). APAP is APAP is APAP... I've heard many members say Watsons are stronger than Mallies. I've also heard the reverse. There are lots of variables that come into play, as far as talking about effectiveness of one brand over the other. Manufacture expiration date (meaning how old are they), storage conditions (meaning temperature and humidity), fillers (meaning hardness or softness of the pill; or time in which the pill completely dissolves), time in which the pill dissolves (meaning how quick the medication is released), tolerance levels (personal tolerances vary from person to person), and psycological (some people just believe that brand A is better than brand B no matter what you tell them).

So there is only one way to find out...Place an order, sample the medication, and then draw your own conclusions.

Hope this sorta answers your questions..
