Leading Pharma Lorazepam Reviews (Page 6) (Top voted first)

I am really confused about everyone's posts concerning the leading brand Lorazepam. I have been taking the generic form of Lorazepam 2mg for 25 years. I've used every kind, from Watson to the current leading one. It appears that the sugary taste is the primary issue for everyone here. The amount of negative reviews about this company is absurd. They are no different than any other generic Lorazepam; they work the same. The only difference in this pill is the inactive ingredient, which contains potassium, and that's why the pill tastes like sugar. However, my point is, if you are a long-term user of benzos, you would have all ended up withdrawing and possibly seizing if the pill really didn't contain the main ingredient. The ER doctor would have been the first to report this pharmacy if your illness had anything to do with it. A negative review does nothing to persuade a discontinued manufacturer to bring back the generic form that any of us got comfortable with. A Lorazepam is a Lorazepam, and the Leading Pharma Lorazepam is the same as any Lorazepam. It functions just like the rest.

Wastson lorazepam (the original) hasn't been available since 2013/14......when Actavis bought them out they also bought the molds thus until Teva took over Actavis Lorazepam production, the old Watson molds were used so it still said "Watson" on them but if you compared it to the pre-2013 Watson, the letters were more blurry. I found the Actavis Watson to be less effective.....that's when I consulted an old pharmacist friend who gave me the info. I did find the original Teva lorazepam very good when I first started it..it was made in Israel......but that too changed...I then found out they were outsourcing exports to be made in the Czech Republic. (Sigh).

Yesterday my pharmacy told me they are able to order Teva 2mg lorazepam so I switched generics (they’ve only had Leading for a year). I used to take Teva generic before Leading and only needed half the amount.

I agree, the generics are not the same as they were a few years ago. I have been switched back to Leading from Aurobindo, then Teva. After a few days of adjustment, the Leading are working ok for me.

Re: Leebs (# 107)

What happened to all the various chats regarding lorazepam? I haven't received any notices of any activity in any of them.....found an old link from last June which seems to be the most recent post in all the chats. What happened?

Re: Richard H (# 108)

Google happened. They started favoring garbage blog farms that use SEO tricks to rank well. Either that or recovery centers all of a sudden became very popular with their thoughtful blog posts.

I'm amazed that they ALL disappeared......didn't even get notification that you answered, Roy. It's sad because I know of no other place people can discuss their experiences without being censored.

Okay...since forum was renamed Rxchat ALL emails from this forum now go into my "Junk" folder (no idea why I have a "Spam" folder too)....just moved them to inbox -but they are not the old typical emails stating "someone has responded to your...." Instead they list ALL forums on Rxchat and very few contain anything about lorazepam......please- Admin - go back to the old way..it worked so well!

I have been taking Leading Mfg Lorazepam for several months, initially had to adjust, but it worked ok. Went to pick up my script today and it is from Sun Pharma. Never had these before, does anyone have any experience with them. Apparently they are manufactured in New Jersey. Any thoughts?

Re: Leebs (# 113)

I never heard of it until your post. Seems like another New Jersey lorazepam is on the market (the other from Fairfield, NJ- Leading Pharma)....let us know how it works for you as I'm sure with Teva & Leading having ingredient shortages at the moment and Teva shipping cut back as they did last December we may be seeing more Sun Pharma products in the pharnacirs soon. Happy New Year everyone!

Found the label on DailyMed (NDC 63304-774-90). It's manufactured by Ohm Laboratories in NJ for Sun Pharmaceutical. Have you taken it yet? What's the verdict?

Re: Henry (# 115)

First few days taking it, I always need a few days of adjustment with a new manufacturer. But, so far, so good. Will keep you posted.

Re: vern please help (# 120)

Hey Vern, I completely understand your anxiety. Are you able to send a message to your prescribing Dr/nurse and explain how the Leading brand doesn’t work? If other pharmacies in your area don’t have another generic for lorazepam, there may be other generic options for the 2 mg lorazepam (if your prescriber can change your dose from 1 to 2). I don’t have my bottle in front of me but that’s what my therapist did so we could avoid the Leading 1 mg that every pharmacy seems to carry. I hope you can figure something out! I’ve been there.
