Default Oxycontin OC & OP?

For those of you on the higher pain killers such as Methadone, Oxycontin 80mg, and Dilaudid. I thought It of great importance to discuss the new brand name Oxycontin that may or may not all ready be flooding your pharmacy stock piles. Purdue the creator of the brand name Oxycontin has created a new version to release into the market Oxycontin OP (meaning instead of OC on one side it will now have OP). Now from speaking with patients on these new versions its a mixed debate. Half are saying its like the generic once put out before by another company trying to make a generic for sale instead of paying brand name costs. Problem with that earlier generic was it was severely less potent as as anyone that was on them can tell you. It as well made some more nauseated and sick, Purdue the creator of the brand name sued the generic company and brought it back to being a sole monopoly for them. But this new OP is being put out as the new brand name to be from now on. Like I said some are finding it to be just like the generic that other company put out others are finding it to be ok. I would like to hear how each of our fellow members on this forum are dealing with this new OP. I agree I like the reason for the OP as its been engineered that ignorant abusers of the med can no longer snort or shoot the med up. The problem is whether its less potent and we get ripped off like last time. I'm hoping it words as well as the last one without problems. So if anyone is on the new Oxycontin OPs yet please respond with how your doing. I'm interested to see how others are dealing with it. The sick part is they are still charging just as much for this new one and I for one if I find its not working like the originals am going to switch to another medicine cause I'm not going to spend money for a weaker pill. So anyone on these and wanna chime in?
