Best Catapres Clonidine Generic .1mg (Top voted first)
UpdatedOk, so I have been on .1mg clonidine (catapres) for the last four years. I have never been to impressed with the generic I have taken nor have I ever withdrawed from clonidine ever. I take 1 in morning and 2 at night as directed. The generic I have been used to for all four years is the actavis (blue po) and have never tried any other generic. However I am big on knowing all generics differ in all medicine unless it is brand name. I tend to always order the most preferred / best generic. It would be great to get some feedback on any generics compared to actavis / blue p.o.? There are some new generics out I have noticed and I would like the most efficient. I personally stay away from Mylan on anything and usually stay away from actavis best I can but hard on this until i choose to order and try another generic. Qualitest (par pharma) has a generic and they are a great pharma company maybe I should try them. I also now of more and will list below and any comparison to the actavis would be great please. The generics are as follows:
Actavis (blue po)- r 12 (orange)
Unichem- u 135 (white)
Qualitest (par pharma) - v 25 41
Mylan- mylan 152
Dava-the S 263
Boehringer Ingelheim pharma- BI 6
ESI Lederle Generics- LL C 42
Sun Pharma- MP 657
Impax- 961 (white)
Alembic Pharmaceuticals Limited- L 167
Carlsbad Technology, Inc. - YS 01
Par Pharmaceutical (Qualitest).1mg ER- A257
Concordia Pharmaceuticals- .1mg ER - 651 (white)
Actavis .1mg ER- CRESENT MOON 241
Anyways there is a few more but after researching the ESI Generics and dava sound good but any feedback would be great so don't like actavis but it's all I get. Anyone have feedback?

I’ve only had Sun Pharma and Alembic Pharmaceuticals, which are Tan/Baige. I like the Alembic better but let me know what y’all think is best. I’m on 0.1 mgs BO daily.

The peach r 129 0.3 mg clonidine made by Actavis Elizabeth, formerly Purepak are pretty solid.
I've been on octavis trans dermal system for about 4 or 5 years, and the .1 mg / day patch is so much better for me that I would hate to go to capsules. It comes in four weekly patches per box, and I have never lost or washed one off. I think I can stay on that minimum dose, but carry diltiazem hcl for situational stress episodes that rarely happen. I'd caution against using any other alpha A2 or 1 med while on clonidine. I'd look into reducing your dose with a clonidine patch?

r 129 Round peach colored tab made by Actavis Elizabeth, formerly known as Purepak are the best generic clonidine.

That is what I have been on for years. Activas is just cheap they make cheap medicene so it just concerns me I know there has to be a better one then bluepo / activas

I stay away from teva. Teva is not a good oharma company. Thank you though
Re: Chris (# 1)
How would you compare your preferred generic to Actavis generic?
Re: David (# 2)
Teva everything is horrible when will people realize this. Last teva product I had was a z pack and it did nothing stay away from teva everything. Blah if you think teva works for you you are taking a placebo and honestly don't need w.e it is your taking as it is like a sugar pill. But thank you for your feedback bro

Ok so today I refilled and got to ndcs one is the activas which is the usual ones I get but they also had Alembic Pharmaceuticals Limited omes as half. I'm excited to try this generic and will keep posted. Has to be better than activas. Imprint is l 167
Go TEVA, always better. I have found this to be effective.
