Clonazepam Help Me (Page 14) (Top voted first)

I have always used the same brand of clonazepam. However they changed what is in the medication. I've been gravely ill because my body can't take the change. Now I want to not take it any longer because it's making me ill. How can I detox slowly if I don't have a decent batch of clo that agrees with me? If anyone has any real information please let me know. I'm ill feeling every day if I take it it makes me ill and get withdrawal If I don't take it I get still getting withdrawal.

Dear Jacqueline, Hoping that your eyes are feeling better and that the eye drops are helping you. I just got back from the laundry mat, feeling a bit exhausted. I'm glad that you have many blessings in your life with your children etc. I haven't seen Billy Graham in a while, but I do watch the 700 club every day. I hope and pray that the meds that you are taking now will work well for you. God Bless you.

Sarah, get some rest. Having children is a blessing but you have to wonder when they turn out like my son. And since my daughter's are all grown there not around to keep momma company, they have their lives. If you don't mind me asking have you got any children or step children? Don't bother answering today. Get rest

Hi Jacqueline, No, I don't have any children of my own, I didn't avoid it, it just never happened. My husband has a daughter and I have two grandchildren from her. But they live in the Midwest. My step daughter was pregnant with my grandson when my husband was dying of cancer, so my husband never got to meet him. We use to go visit her almost every year when my husband was alive, but I don't like traveling anymore especially by myself. They have come to visit a few times. But I was blessed with a niece and a nephew who were like my children. I would pick them up every weekend and spend time with them. And I've been blessed with friends whose children loved me very much. I don't feel like I missed out on children. But I do worry who will care for me when I get old. I finally put the laundry away and hung the bathroom curtains which I haven't washed in a while because I've been so ill since that horrible Sandoz clonazepam. God Bless you xox. Hope that you are feeling better.

Since I stopped the paxil the psy doctor told me to go back on my old Trazadone plus email all to take at night. I don't think I am going to tolerate that again. They cause severe headaches plus my arms were purple blotches from the bleeding side effect. I did not get Lexapro filled because all they had was the Indian manufacturer. Then I saw an article saying we wouldn't believe what's in generic Lexapro but I can't put my hands back on it. You seem to have a more content life with your friends and family. My husband don't socialize with friends, so basically I am just by myself until he comes home from work. Both of us are beginning to feel our bodies are falling apart. Take care and God Bless You.

Sarah, made a mistake with user name that is what I use to comment on these worthless Adderall. I didn't give up hope until CVS finally got Sandoz now I am basically out because these are awful. You heart feels like it's exploding. So out of five generics I can only tolerate the Teva actually old Barr's and it just helps you get by. Sorry about user name but you probably could tell it's me. Take Care Also I can't understand the other comments I don't know Spanish.

Dear Jacqueline, You just sound so sad today. I don't know what I can say or do to help you feel better. I may have missed understood you. But I've been under the impression that you have been doing better with the xanax and
the Percocet. And omg if the trazadone is going to cause you those terrible side effects, you need to email your psy right back and let him know. You haven't told me how your eyes are doing. About your son the only thing I can say is keep praying for him. We are not giving up on him he is also in my prayers everyday. My niece and my nephew are also grown up and have their own lives. We all suffer from loneliness living alone is extremely lonely that's why I always try to find things to do in spite of how I feel. Since that horrible experience with the clo I've been very lonely myself I don't have the energy nor the will to do the things I like. I push myself to do things and it helps but it takes a lot of effort. May God Bless you.

Jacqueline, I don't think it's your body that has built up a tolerance to benzo, it's the pharmaceuticals companies that are producing very poor quality meds. ( garbage) I know that for a fact because remember I told you that I took the old ones for the weekend and they worked fine. The Qualitest do the same thing to me. My body feels like I need to take more. I spoke with my sister today and she told me that the Zoloft makes her shaky. Teva isn't good at all. Tomorrow I go back to the doctor and the only option I have is this Qualitest. It probably is the withdrawal and not so much your anxiety because the withdrawal can cause anxiety. You said that the barbiturates helped you stay calm, maybe you can take them when you feel anxious. Ok angel try to hang in there. Believe me I understand you. My heart and prayers are with you. God Bless you.

Erupções cutâneas sanguinolentas. Coceira, seguida de sangramento e indolor. Pra piorar, embaixo de Amoxicilina, e Cetoprofeno, para uma possível Sinusite; a confirmar. Um bom lote de clonazepam ou diazepam, acho que me tiraria da letargia em que me encontro. Os meus já estão a se acabarem, e obter 'receita', é uma 'via crucis' não garantida. Seja o que 'Deus ou o Diabo', quiserem...já que não tenho muito a fazer, somente, por eu mesmo...

Google Translate (may not be 100% accurate):

Bloody rashes. Itching, followed by bleeding and painless. To get worse, under Amoxicillin, and Ketoprofen, for a possible sinusitis; to confirm. A good batch of clonazepam or diazepam, I think would get me out of the lethargy I'm in. Mine are already running out, and getting 'recipe' is an unsecured 'via crucis'. Be what 'God or the Devil', want... since I do not have much to do, only, by myself...

Sarah, I just re-read my message to you and it is so full of words that were not meant to be. I don't know how my messages are being change. Just like I put down the firocet was by Qualitest and it was changed to qualities. When I write Sandoz it's changed to sandbox. Yes I did get some sleep but it's because I took the Trazodone, and the Zanaflex. I only took a fraction of the dose of Trazodone. I think that is what caused the severe headache plus it stops the Adderall from working. I go back on the fifth for the Botox inj's. in my head. The psy doctor was going to change the Adderall to Dexedrine on the twelfth but all the reviews are bad from Barr and their doesn't seem to be others. Thanks for checking in with me. Take care and God Bless you for caring.

Sarah, God Bless you for checking in. I would like to know who in authority like national substance abuse in Obama administration a person could write and tell them Detox was denied to people who have used Xanax/Klonopin legally and wanted off of it. God Bless.

My eye pain has stopped but vision is still blurry. I know this has something to do with medication also. There are times I cover one eye and can't even read the writing that's large on the TV and only ten feet away. Then I do the other eye and same thing. The Vision has decreased tremendously. The doc said he may have to go with stronger lens but I don't know if he meant glasses or the implant they put in from cataract surgery. I go back on the eighteenth.

Sarah thanks for checking. I took Trazodone in 2015 at high doses. It completely stopped working as for as sleeping and it caused both arms to have bad bleeding and bruising under the skin. For some reason it totally reversed being able to sleep and it made me not even want to stand up. Psy doctor said some of his patients were reporting same thing. I didn't even think to consider the generic factor. They were by Qualitest. I had three of the old Shire brand Adderall and I took my morning dosage and could not tell I took anything. Trazodone cancels all effect. If all of that mess is not enough, I am in supper severe pain in my spine today. Neck to Lumbar. So instead of me praying for single things all I can do is pray for my entire mind and body. It's so bad I am crying not meaning to. If I could get to my Chiropractor and have them deep tissue massage my back it probably would help plus I need my Prednisone Inj. I am sorry I complain so much but it doesn't look like I am getting better, I just have numerous medical problems. But I appreciate your prayers and concerns. It seems weird that I feel like your a close friend yet I can't talk to you on the phone, or email you. {edited for privacy}. God Bless You, I'll talk later.

JD, Sandoz do not hold any patent to use the name 'Klonopin', which is the US Roche brandname for Rivotril, and not permitted to be used by any other country. In general, I find Sandoz benzodiazepines to be of pretty poor quality anyway. You refer to Sandoz clonazepam 2mg tablets. The worst alprazolam I ever had was US-made Sandoz alprazolam 2mg embossed 'GG249', yet I believe it is the most-dispensed alprazolam in that country. It simply would not be acceptable to European consumers.

Teva USA tend to make much better meds than teva UK, whose diazepam is dire. But as I noted earlier in the thread, I must now spend money I haven't really got on real Roche Rivotril, as they withdrew the brand from the UK due to lack of sales, the policy here now being to dispense only the cheapest generic. Which in the case of clonazepam, which I have been on for years and years for epilepsy and panic disorder, means auden mcKenzie, whose excipients inhibit bioavailability and thus the tablets do not work for me as they should. Galenika and Abbott india Rivortil (both Roche licenced) are also acceptable, being practically identical to Roche's brand. 'Bananatrils' (Torrent CLONOTRIL-2) is a water dispersible tablet which has an extremely rapid onset of action compared with regular tablets and a distinct banana taste; a bit cheaper than brand but I like to have some of each in stock. My prescription goes to people in need who have either run out or can not get the dosage required. So everyone is happy.

Galenika of Serbia's Rivotril is actually BETTER than those made by Roche themselves! As I said before, Sarah my dear, the way to go is to ask your doc to prescribe by BRAND and not simply by drug, and then the pharmacy MUST dispense the 'Klonopin' brand, as it is known there - quite why such a well known brand should have a different name just in that one country is a mystery when the entire world knows the tablets as RIVOTRIL. 'Klonopin' means nothing to the vast majority of people.

So demand that you be prescribed by BRAND and you should have no problem. And might I add that the only generic alorazolam from the US which is anywhere even close to European standards is that made by Greenstone. The only one that I can not comment upon is the strangely biscored 'S903' green tabket by Dava, which I have never had, but have seen some reviews saying they are not bad. That, however, means very little in a country where alorazolam is of such poor general quality - which I do not understand, there being so many generics available. Why only the Greenstone should feel anything like branded Xanax/Xanor by Pfizer/Upjohn is a very strange state of affairs. Eastern Europe certainly has the best alps available, and in the western hemisphere, Argentina is the place to go, Gador ALPLAX being a superb brand which I take from time to time.

BRAND NAME, SARAH. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY YOU WILL BE ASSURED OF GETTING THE QUALITY YOU NEED.

Zaborav, Thank you, I really appreciate you taking the time to explain and trying to help Jacqueline and me. However, the problem is that it would cost me $240 to get the brand name Klonopin when it cost me zero dollars for the generic. Big difference in price and the drug stores will not order it for me unless I get a large quantity. Also from what I have read the Teva brand is the closest one to the brand name Klonopin and Teva brand is the one that gave me the horrible jaw, gum and teeth pain etc and didn't work well for me at all. If I am unable to find a generic clonazepam, I will certainly take your advice. I'm still in the process of evaluating other generic brands for now. I'm trying also to change over to barbiturates which worked well for me many years ago, but with not to good results so far. It's a real shame that Sandoz drastically changed how they use to make it. It has always been the perfect medicine for me. It's worked well for me for years, with no side effects; and then they have the nerve to deny that they changed it. Thanks again and God Bless for caring.

Dear Jacqueline, Sorry I needed to have my breakfast, I feel like I'm coming down with a cold. It's so sad what you are going through. I was so busy looking up the medicines that you took to get some sleep, that I missed the part where you wrote about Trazodone causing you severe headaches. I think it was the Zanaflex that helped you get some sleep, because muscle relaxers always make you really sleepy. Crying is fine, we all need to cry angel it helps release all the stress that builds up and you don't need to apologize for letting me know how you are feeling. I'm here to listen and I understand. I only which that I had the answers for you. It's these lousy, putting it lightly, pharmaceuticals companies making cheap medicines. O Lord, please graciously hear and answer our prayers.

Hi Sarah, I am feeling somewhat better this morning. I think if you would explain to your doctor that another person in my state ended up in the hospital thinking it was a heart problem when in fact it was extreme excitability from withdrawals from the .5 Sandoz Klonopin generic he would give you the 1mg which seem to be OK and either increase you to that amount or you could split it with a little pill cutter. The Teva 1mg I have doesn't seem to be very strong and takes forever to kick in. They have a long acting Xanax but if I am able to take only 2 per day of the regular I had rather that. I could not get by with 2 without the Adderall and my pain tablet. When I start hurting my heart goes crazy causing the blood pressure to shoot up. The beta blocker also calm anxiety. I was horrible with muscle spasms and pain yesterday. I don't know what went wrong with the doctor burning the nerves in the right side of my neck but it's constant pain and muscle spasms. I go Wednesday for another round of Botox in my head. I am going to call and see if he can inj. the base of my skull with steroid because it's inflamed besides the Fibromyalgia has kicked in bad. I have got to get to the bottom of these inactive ingredients in these meds. I woke at 4:00 and took one of the Xanax and within a few minutes my tounge was on fire and I was itching all over. The reason I am getting some sleep is because of the elavil, zanaflex and Sonata.. The Sonata only stays active just 2 - 4 hours and by that time the elavil has started. My arms are getting bad again with the purple blotches and bleeding. I took pictures of my arm before and I was taking Trazodone. That drug is weird because it's suppose to knock you out but if I take the amount he wants me to I am wide awake and anxious. I don't have my bottle in front of me but I think my Xanax is by greenstone. I was on my desktop and I came across a site for my heart med and it list 25 inactive ingredients in Atenolol four of them are those Povidone types. I don't have any doctor that is checking these interactions with the inactive ingredients. Plus every brand is different. I am sorry I kept you so long especially when your feeling bad. My husband goes for a MRI Wednesday. He is in so much pain but it may be his arteries blocked again, he can't walk but a short distance. He has already had 2 open heart surgeries plus three stents in other parts. He is also battling diabetes. I have to just keep myself well enough to help him. That's one of the problems he gets so short tempered with me. He is not one to take pain pills. However if I live long enough I am going to get that Detox just to see if I can survive without Benzodiazapines. Thanks so much for your prayers and concern.

I have found out you have to search the NDC code to find out the entire ingredients. I am going to resend my codes of my medication in another message. When your filling better you may can help check out some of ingredients. Today my eyes and mouth did the allergic reaction like acid frying my eyes.

Sarah,

1. NDC code 59762-3721-04. Alprazolam imprint g 3721.
2. NDC code 00603-4979-28. Pill imprint 4827 Percocet 7.5 Qualitest
3. NDC 63304-0622-10. Atenolol pill imprint gg263 heart med

I don't have the NDC right now for Adderall because it was just 3 old pills from last year. I can get it. Something in those four pills caused an allergic reaction. Beside burning my eyes and mouth my teeth and gums on the left side of my mouth started hurting bad. In the Xanax along it shows about 70 ingredients. I may call the rexall pharmacist and pay him to look at what I am taking and see if he can find what combination is burning my mouth and eyes. He is a compounding pharmacist. I don't want you to bother with any of this while your feeling bad. Another thing I did was eat oatmeal this morning and the allergist had told me no. I am allergic to that plus flour & gluten. I am not suppose to even eat a slice of bread.. Take care and hope you feel better soon.
