I just posted my first expereience with them under the feedback portion of the forum. This experience got an A for convenience and speed,but I'm a bit confused as to what they sent me. I ordered #60 7.5/750,generic Vicodin ES. The pills sent are 7.5/500,which seem to be generic Lortab. The pills I paid for were 139.00,while the ones sent are listed for 129.00 on the site. No,I haven't called or emailed to complain,because I don't feel like it is THAT big of a deal to make a stink-I really am happy just to have my order in hand. I would like to know if this is common from them though.
I remember getting Lortab awhile back,after Percs stopped working for me. For some reason,I remember not being particularly impressed with them. So what I suppose I am asking is,is there a big difference between the two?

The only difference is in the tylenol. Lortab ihas 250mg less tylenol than the vicodin es. So if you want the same thing just take half of a 500 tylenol (usually an extra strength one). I personally don't notice much a difference in pain relief based in the tylenol content, usually it's just the hydro amount that I rely on. Based on my won experience and I know others don't have this, I get more relief from a 10/325 hydro (brand name Norco) than a 10/500 hyrdo (brand name Lortab). That's probably just psychologically based though for me...cause I'm always a little nuts. Good luck, I'm sure they'll work fine for you though. However, I'm not sure if you'll find more relief from them than the percocets, because percs are stronger.

He Myrrine-I think I was asking because I'v read so many different preferences on this board,and many people seem to feel that 7.5/750 is better and stronger than 10/325 or 500. But it is all a matter of personal preferance. I definately won't be calling to complain-what would be the point? Overall,I'm happy.
OT,but when my doctor gave me Lortab after I told him the Perc's weren't working,he must have been trying to appease me. Though I didn't know as much about meds as I do now,I knew the Lortab stank (I had after all,been on Percocet for over a month-talk about a step down!). So instead of giving me something stronger,he just gave me something. It was really quite stupid of him. Anyhow,thanks for the reply. I am currently researching uspharmacyrx.com. The prices seem too good to be true!

You sound like you have a good handle on the meds.
I would ask for a 10 dollar refund though, just ask...the worst they can say is no. Right???
IMHO, I would stay away from USPHARMACYRX though! My bottle says I have 2 refills, can't seem to talk to anyone and the site says no refills. I might have fallen bewteen the cracks but others are complaining too. They had some drama with the old pharmacy they used so maybe that is why.
If you can get some medical records, it is in your best interest to use a better OP.

Janey: I have never had a problem with receiving the wrong meds from them, I've ordered a total of 4 times from them now~always the right med, always the right amount...and you're right, they are speedy! I ordered Tuesday around 9:30 am, received meds Wednesday before 12:30 pm(my Fed EX guy arrives between 12-12:30 like clock-work). I agree, I would've done the same thing, just kept what they gave me and not said a thing(being as their isn't much difference and it was only a $10 loss). Congrats on receiving!
