Clonazepam 0.5 Mg Teva Vs Accord (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)
Updated
I recently received Teva clonazepam and it worked great. Two weeks ago, I received clonazepam from Accord Pharmaceuticals and it was like a placebo pill. Has anyone taken this medicine By Accord and have you noticed a serious difference with it not helping? I've never had a generic never work before. I don't know what to do. All pharmacies in my area are now going with Accord Pharmaceuticals because it's cheaper. Help with an answer please.
Re: Marcus (# 245)
Did she mention any large chain store that has them?
Re: kathy eldridge (# 244)
I have tried the brand name also, i was impaired sick with it. As I mentioned, I have tried different suppliers and the brand, and can only tolerate accord. But thanks for the advice.
Re: Kita (# 240)
Finally I was able to connect with the main customer service rep at Accord, and she explained that:
1) yes the batches were gradually approved last year because when the plant in India was shut down - they had to get permission to release the batches that were already made and they could only do it after the revisions at the manufacturing plant were approved.
2) she's emailed me a list of the pharmacies in the cities in my state that are still selling these last batches, yet unfortunately none of them are anywhere near where I live.
3) it could be a very long time before the manufacturing plant in India could be able to start producing the Accord clonazepam again. She said there are many steps that need to be taken and it could be many months with no guarantee that it would even happen this year!
Re: Kita (# 222)
You might want to tell your Doctor the experiences you have had with the generics currently on the market and see if they authorize brand name, so you can get it at the generic price.
Re: Kita (# 226)
Have you tried Advagen, that what I got this month. It seems to work. I am a huge believer in Accord being the best but Advagen does seem to work.
Re: Marcus (# 236)
Did you try Costco?, Here on Oregon they have 2ml of the accord pills
Re: Kita (# 240)
Thank you, I take the Teva .5 and still using a bit of leftover .5 Accord. Not only do I feel the Accord is more effective but it also is easier to cut for tapering or cutting back a piece to make a custom dose using a .001 gram scale, cutter, and razor blade.
I'm not sure I believe the things people say about "inventory" because manufacturers are not allowed to sell a product more than a certain amount of time after production and there are strict rules about this. That's why there are expiration dates even though you know the medication lasts way beyond that. If they stopped manufacturing their Clonazepam at the end of 2023 then they can't stock it in warehouses and gradually release it over an entire year.
Re: Marcus (# 238)
Mind you that the tablets some people in this forum managed to refill are simply the tablets that are already in the warehouse based on accord inventory. I am not sure if they released all their inventory already and it ran out by now or are they releasing little by little ? As far as I understood they are allowed now to release this inventory after being tested each batch.
Re: Marcus (# 238)
Thanks, Markus, I will let you know if I manage to talk with them. I did spoke with them few time last year also.
Which brand are you taking at the moment ?
Re: Kita (# 233)
I agree with you, it is confusing and it has been for over a year now. Perhaps you can join me in trying to contact Accord healthcare - you can easily find the contact number for their office in Raleigh, North Carolina with a Google search. Choose the option for customer service and ask if and when their Intas manufacturing plant in India is going to start producing clonazepam. If you have trouble getting an answer choose a different option that will connect you directly with someone and have that person leave a message for customer service to contact you.

To get to the newer messages like the ones we're seeing now, all you have to do is click or push your finger on the cursor pointing forward to get to the last page of this thread.
Re: Kita (# 235)
I will report back here after hopefully I hear from the Accord USA corporate office in NC. I left a message on Friday with a different department saying that the customer service department have not been picking up their phones or returning calls in months. When they did answer their phones last year they would always tell me they that the production plant - Intas Pharma, in India was going to be ramping up production gradually. But they could not give me a timeline when they would start producing the Accord clonazepam (.5, 1 or 2 mg).
Of course any of us can contact that office for Accord you can find the listing on Google. Just call that number and ask for customer service try to get someone to speak to you or leave a message and have them call you. It's called Accord healthcare pharmaceuticals, the office is in Raleigh North Carolina.
I live on the West Coast but I don't think it matters where you live if they're not making it, they can't ship it and pharmacy suppliers won't have it.
Re: kathy eldridge (# 234)
This is a forum and such a message/ subject started in 2018. I believe the message that started this thread stays as the main message, that’s all, nothing more. Updated messages appears on the bottom.
this message is so old, I think it should be removed. There is so much new information about Teva, Accord and other clonazepams out there it doesn't serve any purpose
Re: Marcus (# 230)
You mean the 0.5mg tablets ?
I thought they started to release these tablets again so much that some people in this forum managed to get more refills..
that’s so confusing
Re: kathy (# 231)
I have tried accord 1mg pills and cut to my strength and felt terrible sick also.
I need the 0.5mg pills. It seems to be the only one that works for me.
Re: Kita (# 229)
Sorry, they were selling accord, must have run out. Do you have access to Costco? There they had accord in 2mg pills. You could break them into 4's. I understand how you feel, Accord is the only one that works for me as well.
As far as I know Accord stopped making clonazepam because (and this is what I was told by the customer service reps at the Accord office in North Carolina) intas pharmaceuticals which owns them and was producing this product at their manufacturing plant in India had to shut down and clean it up and make some major revisions, and since then they have yet to start making the clonazepam again. Also when I called their USA office in North Carolina last year numerous times they said they had no idea when the pharmaceutical manufacturing plant in India would start producing it again and now they don't answer their phone anymore. I was taking the 5 mg clonazepam tablet and it was far more effective than any other generic brand.
