Accord Clonazepam (Page 4) (Top voted first)

These are horrible, Accord Clonazepam. I'll be glad when I get my new script and can go back to TEVA.

Re: Matt (# 2)

You are so correct in what u wrote. I am in the same boat. This horrible, horrible company 'accord' makes their product in china. The klonopin or generic does not work the same way as both mylan and teva. Teva bought actavis and they are not making it. Should be in pharmacies by now. Warn everyone: accord is the worst! It not only does not work, it makes one almost nuts with what it causes. I've just convinced costco to get me back my actavis/teva. They just ordered it for me today. Smith's (kroger) refused to use anyone but accord. Think I will sell my kroger stock.

J (# 123) - when King Soopers refused to refill my prescription unless I accepted the Accord/ clonazepam I transferred my prescription to Walgreens. Walgreens was able to provide me with the Teva/ clonazepam up until August of 2018 they were no longer able to order it for me. So I had to switch to Solco/ clonazepam manufacturer. This is so upsetting. I'm tired of other people making my Healthcare decisions for me!

The Accord brand is HORRIBLE! Basically like taking candy. Not effective at all!

I had to go to Walgreens instead of Walmart to get Accord Clonazepam which works for me. Teva doesn't. Then Walgeens said they could no longer get it. I've called Accord to see where I could get Accord Clonazepam again? I have Dystonia.

Re: Just concerned (# 138)

Accord is not made in China, it's made at three sights in India, same goes towards Teva. Only Clonazepam brand that is made in China is Solco, the company will tell you they make products in Charlotte, NC, Clonazepam is not on that list having looked into it.

Re: Barbie 616 (# 4)

I agree 100%. Has anyone had success finding Accord? Rite Aid stopped carrying Accord. I called Walgreen, CVS, and small pharmacies and no one has it. I have either gotten used to Teva or I am being wiened off clonazepam. I have gotten used to sleeping after taking Teva, but they are much weaker than Accord if effective at all.

Re: Verwon (# 1)

Accord works great for me. I've been on it for many years. Teva does nothing. It all depends on how a person's body processes the drug and what fillers are in it. They may even have the same fillers but in different amounts.

Mike, I refilled mine today at Walgreens; they gave me Accord, which I have never used. Mine has always been mfg by Mylan. I was very pleased with the Mylan...I am very hesitant about the Accord. I hope it gives me the same results!

Re: Matt (# 2)

My Son had a similar reaction. He was Suicidal, then violent and panicking.
Klonopin usually puts him to sleep but the new blue ones just seemed to further agitate him. I can't find much on the maker or the inactive ingredients. He also seemed to have an increase in Seizure activity.

Sandoz has always worked the best for my son. When they switched manufacturers to Teva it was a disaster!! I found out today that Sandoz has discontinued making Clonazepam, so I chose to try Accord. All I hope is that it works similar to the Sandoz brand. He is very sensitive to the additives/ inactive ingredients in certain meds. Fingers crossed!!

Re: Mylan Bestie (# 18)

I have been on Mylan for 25 years and recently it seems weaker unless I built a tolerance. Took Accord and slept great but had a major headache and felt drugged the next day. Maybe Accord is stronger and I can cut my dose? Anyone have any thoughs on Mylan verses Accord?

Re: Michele (# 21)

Yup. They're supposed to be the same. Generics are definitely not the same. I can't take TEVA or Sandoz. I can barely take Accord. It is too strong for me and maybe it drugs me but doesn't metabolize for me cuz it causes stuff I never had. For me, Mylan worked. I am tolerating Accord but it is just too strong for me but causes anxiety which I never had before - it's new to me to feel anxious. I took the Mylan just for sleep. Feeling anxious is horrible. I know it's the accord, not me. I hope you find what works for you. We are ALL different.

Re: Matyilip (# 3)

Yes I'm with you. I never noticed or questioned generics. Nowadays we, the consumer get what they give us. Also a pharmacist told me Medicare/medicade get the cheap stuff. Those with non welfare get the best quality. I personally preferred Qualitest until they stopped. Now I have been on benzos 25yrs my tolerance is so high I just stay out of withdrawal on any brand. The Accord 1mg are fine. The worst which I hear people prefer Teva the 1mg put me in withdrawal. So as my beloved Dylan laments even today "the times are a changing". I supplement with xanax occasionally but it's not about quality, all about quantity for a business now. I swear there are different effective pills in each batch. I hope someday to be free or can I get brand??? Do they still make it? God bless

Re: John (# 33)

Hi John, I've already tried to talk to my doc about Accord and he looked at me like I am crazy. If you feel comfortable with your doc, talk to him and see what he says. My doc's MA told me patients have been complaining about generics not working. Like I said before, the more patients contact Accord, FDA, and pharmacies no one will do anything about it. Please let me know what you decide to do. Thank you and good luck.

Re: Jenn (# 36)

That's good, Im glad it worked for you. It does nothing for me and seems the majority prefer Teva. I guess i'll try the Actavis next. Im getting off this drug. I can't depend on any consistency anymore with it.

Re: Mike (# 5)

I have been taking Teva Clonazepam for 13 years for panic disorder; it has affected my short-term memory, and maybe I have gotten too used to it. Last refill two weeks ago was made by Accord HealthCA and was filled at my local CVS pharmacy. Have noticed the change in my sleeping and an increase in dizziness. I will give it a couple of weeks before I give up and call my psy.

The main reason I think there's some Benzo but weaker is I'm on three a day and if I cold turkeyed on 3mg after 20 years I'd be way worse. I wish I did know what's going on. I heard Actavis is gonna be the new brand from Teva but its not out til mid month. I just hope its better. I wish I could just get off the meds but I know its not safe to discontinue it unless you taper. I really don't know what to do....Sure I can file a complaint but it probably won't do much good. I'm really pissed Teva discontinued their Clonazepam. It was good and had little side effects. It's all about money and making it cheaper I'm sure. I'm totally fed up.

Re: John (# 42)

Hi John - the Accord is reacting differently BETWEEN PILLS for heaven's sake. One night I can't sleep worth a darn and last night, for example, I fell into bed like a rock and didn't wake up until 9:25 this morning and my right foot was completely numb. Scared me into a near panic attack until I figured out I must have been lying in one position all night. I'm afraid to take one this morning because I have to drive this afternoon and I don't know what the effect will be. Guess I'll take a half of .5 and see what happens. And the more I think about the changes from Teva, the worse the anxiety gets. Talked to a CVS pharmacist this a.m.; he said he has taken all different brands and none have side effects for him. He is on Accord 1mg per day (night) and if he has to work the next day he takes .5mg. So obviously any brand gives him a "hangover". Doesn't do any good to talk to the pharmacist about the change; they take whatever their warehouse sends them. Going to check with my Dr. to see if I can go back to Klonopin or taper off. Thanks to all who contribute to this chat.
