In 2017 What Is Best Quality Generic Diazepam?
(Newest replies first)

I have an extremely painful oral Neuropathy of 3 cranial nerves for three years. I have had to travel out of state to see Specialists in both Oral Facial Pain and Neurology. There is no cure for this problem. Have tried acupuncture and Homeopathy without any improvement. The only thing that can be done is efforts at reducing the neurologic pain, the pain cannot be stopped. I take an antiseizure med Gabapentin (Neurontin) and also brand Valium 5 mg. every 12 hours. While I have health insurance, I have been paying outrageous Copays for Brand Valium. So at my request, the physician wrote for the Generic Diazepam. The pharmacy issued me TEVA, 5 mg. generic valium (Diazepam). Within 48 hours, or before, of switching to generic valium, the Nerve Pain had increased to unbearable levels and began spreading to larger area. I called my doctor, pharmacy and insurance company. I was able to return the TEVA and replace with Brand Valium, paying a very high copay. I live in Florida. The difference in Nerve Pain levels was stunning using Teva vs using Brand. The Teva generic valium was like drinking a glass of water, it did nothing at all to manage the nerve pain. It was not manufactured in Israel either. I checked the box and it was made in Czeckosalvia (sp) instead. Again, I only take it for Neuropathic pain. I do not use any other medications. In the year 2017, I was wondering if anyone has found a Generic Valium 5 mg. that works well? My condition has no cure or treatment other than this. I don't believe I will be able to pay for the Brand much longer. I don't object to using any generic as long as it works for the pain. My condition is never treated with narcotics, so the Valium quality is critical for me. Any help is appreciated.

I’ve just received Hemofarm 10mg Diazepam tablets rather than my usual Benesden ones. IMO, the Benes are not great, but these new ones are good. They are white, not blue as would expect with most UK prescribed, but I’m feeling relief within about 15 minutes. Really happy with them. In the future I might try and get them directly from the manufacturer.

Re: Kevin (# 2)

The best of the best are both Apaurin made by Pliva (not Pliva Pharma, Pliva Pharma is original too but real originals come from the factory in my hometown in Croatia. Second best is Normabel, it’s so good that I couldn’t tell the difference between it and Apaurin if there were no slight color variations and imprint on Apaurin. I’ve tried almost all generics, they’re all inferior to Apaurin. Btw, Apaurin name and tablet were first made in Croatia, so it’s an original brand.

Hello Trigeminal Nerve Pain,

Every person is subject to respond differently to each medication. While some brands will work for you, others may not. The best course of action is to have a consultation with your primary care physician and discuss what has worked for you in the past and what has not. They will be best equipped to address to your unique needs.

Hope this helps.

BLUE VALIUM IS BEST. THE GREEN ORANGE AND ANY OTHER COLOR IS GARBAGE. ACTUALLY VALIUM IS COMMONLY ASKED FOR BY COLOR RATHER THAN BRANDS IN THE USA AND SOUTH AMERICA.
