No registration is required and your identity remains anonymous.I am prescribed 0.5 (R 33) 2xs a day. However, my tolerance has been growing and I needed more so I refilled my script with (R 35) 2 MG clonzepams. So taking 1-2 of these should be making me feel calm & doing it's just. They're even made by the same manufacturer. However they are not working, for instance If I take about 3-4 of my 0.5's my anxiety goes away and I feel relaxed. But one day I took 1 2mg and within an hour felt nothing, so took 2 more and still nothing (that's 6mg which would normally have a huge effect on me). Does anyone have any information about these 2mg (imprint- R 35- white round) pills? I feel like there is no way they can be 2mg. I don't think they're fake b/c there is no one someone could fake the imprints this well. I don't know w...
1 REPLY UpdatedI have been taking TEVA clonazepam .5 for years and it was very effective! Now I hear that TEVA does not make it anymore. I was prescribed it via ACCORD mfg with very poor results... headaches, nervous, and more. I hear that the are also SOLCO and AVTIVIS mfg. I need some input re which one would be better... or any others. I heard that the inactive ingredients have a lot to do with it. I also know ACCORD is made in China and have heard some horror stories about their clonozepam. ANY INPUT GREATLY APPRECIATED!! ## Hi Johnny, You're spot on about the inactive ingredients having a lot to do with the medication efficacy. In Canada the drug labels actually refer to them as "non-medicinal ingredients" instead of stating "inactive", and I think this is because they do affe...
44 REPLIES UpdatedWho distributes Clonazepam .5mg from Accord Healthcare? I cannot find a pharmacy anywhere in my city that carries it. ## Hello, Anne! How are you? I am very sorry that you're having trouble finding this medication. One idea might be to ask your pharmacy if they can order it in for you. There isn't any one particular distributor that always provides it. It might be carried by any, if it happens to be the one that has the cheapest price, at any given time. What is your nearest large city? That might enable someone to suggest a pharmacy, if they know of one that carries it. This medication carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Does anyone else have any ideas or suggestions? ## I've gone to eve...
31 REPLIES UpdatedI have small yellow tablets with "R" and a curved line underneath, and "A" with "313" underneath on the other side. Can someone tell me if they are Clonazepam? ## Is it possible that this is an older imprinted pill of something called Trilafon? It is used for thought disorders in adults. Adults who have scattered thoughts, or thoughts that interfere with every day life. I am fairly sure it is not Clonazepam. I have looked that one up everywhere I know to look and it is not described like the pill you are asking about at all. How old are these pills do you know? Do you have the bottle? If so it would have an NDC number on it. Let me know so I can be of better help. Thanks. ## Can you tell me what thus tablet is called please it has A 313 on one side and r on the o...
5 REPLIES UpdatedWhat pharmacies carry Qualitest clonazepam anymore? I used to pick up my scripts for it from Target, prior to it being bought by CVS. Since, I have not had another generic that compared to these- they were even superior to the Roche brand name Klonopin. I have been using the Teva generic that CVS offers and am so glad that Walgreens is out of my life for good as a pharmacy due to their Mylan-only contract concerning their clonazepam. I am satisfied with Teva but have yet to find a pharmacy that carries my preferred Qualitest. Any help is greatly appreciated! ## Sorry to hear about your situation Lazaro. From the looks of things, many other patients throughout this forum are facing similar challenges with getting a certain manufacturer's brand or generic version. In my experience, th...
35 REPLIES Updatedgreen round pill ## Teva has recently been changing their markings, this tablet formerly had the marking of 93 833, but it still contains the same medication, 1mg of Clonazepam, the active ingredient in Klonopin (NDC 0093-3212). This is a Benzodiazepine used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, headache and irritability. Inactive Ingredients: - Corn Starch - Lactose Monohydrate - Magnesium Stearate - Microcrystalline Cellulose - Povidone K90 - D&C Yellow No. 10 Aluminum Lake - FD&C Blue No. 1 Aluminum Lake Ref: DailyMed ## Is it still clonazepam with only Teva 833 and not 93? ## Yes. Look at the comment above you. ## Yes...it is clonazepam/Klonopin 1mg...just has the numbers 833...that's all...besides of course Teva on ...
7 REPLIES UpdatedKlonopin, or clonazepam is one of the hardest drugs to get off of. I have seen this in hospital settings as a nurse myself and as a patient of this horrible drug. Benzodiazepines should never have been invented. I have been on this med for 3 years now, and cannot handle the withdrawal affects no longer than one month. I wish the doctor would have warned me of how dependent your brain and the central nervous system relies on this med only after even 2 months of taking this. I have been advised by doctors to slowly shave the pill down over a period of a year if needed, and then I have had some doctors tell me that may never be able to get off of this drug ever!! Withdrawal symptoms include for myself a feeling of anxiety and panic constantly, never-ending, shaking, hot and cold, no appeti...
33 REPLIES UpdatedI've been taking Accord .05mg which I split in half every 2 to 3 hours, for about a month and a half after they stopped making my Sandoz Clonazepam brand. It's okay. It's starting to work somewhat, but I have a problem. Two weeks ago I am not told that Accord is getting harder to keep in stock by my Pharmacy and my insurance plan wanted to switch me to Actavis. YUCK, that stuff is garbage. I took 7 pills, couldn't stand it anymore how it made me feel. I got jumpy, my body itched, it took almost 2 hours to start working, and it never felt quite right. I said no I need to get the Accord again. My question is, is anyone else having this problem with Actavis, or is it just me? And did the Actavis taper down on the itchiness and start to work for those who are new to taking i...
55 REPLIES UpdatedMy 89 year old Mom has been on Clonazepam for years for sleep. The Actavis seems to work better for her than even the brand name Klonopin. She has had great difficulty finding another comparable version ever since Teva bought Actavis. She has tried several other generics as well without success. Thank you. ## I'm stuck to. I'm in withdrawal I had the pink one for 5 years, now, I can't focus, feel dizzy, off on general. Don't have a clue what to do. ## Under the Hatch-Waxman Act of 1984, generics are allowed to differ from the name brand by as much as plus or minus 20% in the amount of the active ingredients. The problem, however, is that they don't have to measure against each other, which means one generic could be higher, or lower than another, and it could even co...
17 REPLIES UpdatedAre the 1mg tabs the strongest? My Doc put me on this and said to take only half a pill at a time. ## This tablet contains 1mgs of Clonazepam, the active ingredient in Klonopin, it is a Benzodiazepine used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. And no, it is available in a 2mg tablet, as well. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, headache and irritability. Learn more: Are there any other comments or questions? ## I take 2 mg twice a day. A one mg taken half at a time is crazy .5 mg would not do anything for me. ## Is yellow round 34 pill blank on the other side consider a 10 or a 5 mg as a whole not broke in half?? Just wondering ## Clonazepam are powerful but the two milligram pills are the strongest; the one milligram pills aren't really that strong. One milligram...
13 REPLIES UpdatedI'm sick of living day to day with chronic anxiety, social anxiety, Panic attacks and PTSD. Every time I see a DR they are fearful of "the letter" they get from the methadone clinic and also that I am "drug seeking ". I am not a drug seeker and feel very offended, and scared because I am not getting the help I need. I live in South Minneapolis, Minnesota but I am willing to drive as long as it's in MN. Thank You to anyone willing to read this and possibly give some advice. Peace ## I was prescribed Klonopin and or xanax for over 10 years while being prescribed methadone, and now I am having trouble with my anxiety and don't like leaving my house because my anxiety disorder is through the roof. Please reach out asap. Thank you! {edited for privacy} ## Hey Angi...
6 REPLIES UpdatedI have taken Clonazepam for a number of years. It has always been the Actavis product. On my last prescription refill, the pharmacist arbitrarily switched me to the Teva product. Is this a problem? Which, if either, is the better product? Is there a product better than either one of these 2 mentioned above? ## This can happen from time to time as manufacturers change their production schedules around, etc. It is hard to say which is the better product because technically the same generic product from multiple manufacturers contains the same active ingredient(s). That said, some people do experience slightly different effects from a product coming from a new manufacturer. What has been your experience so far? Does anybody else have an opinion of the Clonazepam from Teva? Please keep me p...
27 REPLIES UpdatedI take a plethora of meds for my unhealthy self. Two of these are Physeptone (Methadone mix) 90mg for chronic pain, along with Clonazepam, Roche, Audin, etc.. I am in England so we don't care who makes our meds as they are all free (and anyway we can ask the chemist for another manufacturer). I have to submit urine samples now and again as the government has decided Methadone (even for pain) must be prescribed and monitored by Addiction clinics. This causes me massive problems, especially with other authorities, like my medical 3 yearly driving licence. Well, in the last 4 months, my lab results have been crazy. They should be positive for Methadone and Benzodiazepines (as I take 8mg Clonazepam for epilepsy). The problem is that the Methadone is positive but the Clonazepam has been ...
2 REPLIES UpdatedWhat are the side effects of this drug clonix? My father is 88 and was advised to take this drug for back pain. ## Sorry, I can't find anything listed under this name, are you certain of the name and spelling? What country are you in? ## Can you please double check the spelling? I have located a drug called Clonex, which is a brand of Clonazepam available in Israel and possibly other countries outside the U.S. There are also a couple of other drugs around the world going by the same name, but their active ingredients would not be indicated for back pain. Clonazepam can be prescribed as a muscle relaxant, but this is more of an off-label use. If you think I might be talking about the right medication then you can read more information on the page for Clonazepam Details. Can you pleas...
6 REPLIES UpdatedTeva No Longer Manufacturers Clonazepam, and I personally feel it is a good thing. Teva, in my opinion, is a low-quality company who actually manufacturers 70% of their products overseas, in cities and communities I don't think you would want to live in. I find the change-over, in terms of most of my medications, including clonazapam 2mh hs to be more effective than before. There are, of course, individual differences, but this is how it is for me personally. Would anyone else care to comment? ## From what I can see on their site, they still list it as being currently manufacturer. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, and irritability. Where did you hear that they discontinued it? What company ...
113 REPLIES UpdatedJanuary 29, 2020 - Just spoke with Teva Medical Information Department to discuss the differences between Teva generic brand clonazepam 0.5 mg tablets that were discontinued for approximately one year and were reintroduced into the market approximately 2 months ago. The Actavis brand (TEVA acquired Actavis) clonazepam 0.5 mg pink tablets has been DISCONTINUED as of 10/2019. If you wish to verify this information, please call TEVA at 1-800-545-8800 option 3 and then press option 4 between the hours of 9-5PM ET.

11 REPLIES UpdatedThey only feel half as strong as they should be. I still shake after taking the 1mg pill twice a day. Is sandoz a better generic? I can get those? I am now taking blue c1 clonazepam that aren't scored and don't work. ## Hi . I been on klonopin one milligram for 7 months now. I normally get green pills that say teva on them. I went to Wal-Mart yesterday to get my refill and I got the blue klonopin your discribing. Says c1 on em. And they are not right at all. Very weak. And short lasting. My green teeva klonopin lasted 2 to 4 hours varying on how much anxiety I have. These new c1 blue klonopins last about 30 minutes. And it seems like the first ten minutes after taking the pull is just a rush of relaxation. Then the pill fades away drastically. Like I said they last 30 minutes. I...
41 REPLIES UpdatedWhat is stronger? 2mg Clonazepam or 10mg Diazepam? ## 2 mg of clonazepam would be chemically more potent than 10 mg of diazepam but everyone is different in how their bodies process medication. ## According to this Merck Dosing Calculator each millligram of Cloazepam is equivalent to 20mgs of Diazepam, so to be equal to 2mgs of Clonazepam, you'd need 40mgs of Diazepam. The FDA warns that these medications carry the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and mood changes. Ref: Clonazepam Information Is there anything else I can help with?
2 REPLIES UpdatedGalenika makes valium and alprazolam. Have you ever encountered them making Clonazepam (Rivotril)? Ksalol valium from Bosnia had no markings but recently Klonopin has appeared and either marked imports or domestic. Anyone tried them or sent to be tested for Clonazepam? ## Minor correction: Rivotril is the name brand of clonazepam, not Valium. ## Yes that's what I wrote
2 REPLIES UpdatedIt's a round white pill with C up top and 2 under it. The other side is blank. I was told this is clonazepam. Can anyone verify this? ## Yes, this is listed as being a 2mg Clonazepam tablet, generic for Klonopin, manufactured by Accord Healthcare. This is a Benzodiazepine that is used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, drowsiness, headache and irritability. Are there any other questions? ## Is it the same thing kinda as xanax or valium. Does it work the same as those. There benzos as well right ## This is bulls*** first time seeing this so called brand in 4 years and can not find it any where else...Not taking it... ## I didn't know what the f.... It was the first time ever seen it. ## I just found the same exact pill with that ...
