I don't have that problem:

SQL> create table my_table(
  2  user_id number,
  3  username varchar2(30),
  4  password varchar2(30)
  5  );

Table created.

SQL> insert into my_table
  2  values(1, 'Snork', 'Splav');

1 row created.

SQL> commit;

Commit complete.

SQL> UPDATE my_table SET password = 'FsXqa\' WHERE user_id = 1;

1 row updated.

SQL> commit;

Commit complete.

SQL> select * From my_table;

   USER_ID USERNAME                       PASSWORD
---------- ------------------------------

         1 Snork                          FsXqa\

Which release of Oracle are you using?  The above was run on Oracle
