help with identification of a generic
      #110560 - 10/27/03 03:29 AM

hello, to anyone who takes the time to help me with this, thank you in advance. I am trying to make sure i got the right meds. (this is my first time with this medicine). The pills say Watson 335 and they are supposed to be generic lortab 7.5. Again, thanks to anyone who is willing to help answer my question. I mostly lurk on this board. I've seen posts like this, but i can't remember if they are ok or not - i hope i posted this in the right place. best wishes.

Sorry I can't help wth this specific question. But I learned yesterday (don't remember who posted it) that Watson actually makes Norco products, so the "generic" Watson `10/325's that I got once are the same exact pill as the Norco 10/325's I normally ask for, made in the same lab on the same line etc. (They are stamped Watson 853 by the way).

So your Watson Lortabs could easily be just as good as the real thing too. Hope this helps.

Did you order the 7.5/500 or 7.5/750? You need Fluffyfeller to help you out on this one - she's the resident pill identifier.

The Watson 385 is a almost football shaped tablet kind of short and stubby and as far as I know, there is not a 335.
