Teva Lorazepam Reviews (Page 20) (Top voted first)

I'm seeking insights and reviews on Teva Lorazepam and its comparison with Leading Pharma's version. There's a notable divide in user experiences. Some report Leading Pharma Lorazepam as being less effective or having no effect, possibly due to variations in the active ingredient, leading to side effects or adverse reactions in certain cases.

While there are those who recommend Teva Lorazepam for its efficacy, others find Leading Pharma's version more suitable. Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to try Teva Lorazepam since it's not available in my area – no local pharmacies dispense it.

My experience with other brands, post the discontinuation of Qualitest, hasn't been successful in finding a comparable alternative. I'm particularly interested in understanding how Teva Lorazepam and Leading Pharma's lorazepam differ in terms of effectiveness and user satisfaction.

If you've had experiences with either or both of these medications, your reviews would be incredibly valuable. Any insights into their efficacy, side effects, or overall satisfaction would greatly help me and others in our decisions.

I get the new Teva when I pick up my script this weekend. I still have the watson/activis which is honestly hit or miss. Have high hopes for this new Teva brand.

beccaduncan333 teva has owned both companies since 2016 so i think it should be the same pill....... just with a different stamp i have yet to try it...... even though i have them

Re: Honest (# 254)

they are not trying to do away with it....... its a billion dollar drug class but sorry to hear you are having a hard time switching over.... i have only encountered a few that says its not the same from watson/actavis to teva everyone else says they noticed no difference at all...... give it some time your body will adjust

Re: gsrmike98 (# 255)

ok heres what i could find on my own search using the ndc numbers of both meds watson/activis vs teva

waston/actavis

active ingredient .5mg lorazepam

inactive ingredients

lactose monohydrate
magnesium stearate
cellulose microcrystalline
polacrilin potassium

teva

active ingredient .5 lorazepam

inactive ingredients

colloidal silicon dioxide
magnesium stearate
cellulose microcrystalline
sodium lauryl suffate
starch

so this is probably why some are having reactions and others are not i am not sure if the inactive ingredients can mess with the bio availability of the active ingredients

and active ingredient will vary it only says .5 because that is what i take

Re: gsrmike98 (# 256)

Have you tried it yet? The fillers won’t impact the active ingredients, although some may have reactions (I.E- stomach). Anytime I’ve been switched between mgrs I’ve always had a few days of adjusting.

Re: Richard H (# 239)

You seem to be positive and I don't want to have a negative mindset before I take the new Teva. Tomorrow is my last dose of the Watson/ Actavis. Please tell me there is no difference and it is a good brand. Thank you

Re: BeccaDuncan333 (# 259)

Some people here don't like to hear it but I find little difference between the old Watson, the Actavis Watson, Leading and the new Teva. I've been taking 2mg x3 day Ativan/lorazepam for 35 years and am pretty damn familiar with what 'washing out' feels like. I do understand some people find Leading 'the worst'....and you know..when I first got it..I searched the internet simply because I never heard of the manufacturer (and later found it's practically around the corner from me)...that search also led me to this group....EVERYBODY hated it.....said it was ineffective.....guess what....I believed it too......but after a week or so of 'suffering', i remembered what REAL ineffective felt like......like when I got the wrong prescription by mistake...there is utterly no mistaking whether one's Lorazepam is fake.....one couldn't type on this forum let alone even want to if one had been taking a good amount of Lorazepam and suddenly you were taking something ineffective. From what a pharmacist explained to me (forget the docs)..it's the fillers that control how ones body absorbs the meds......but the body adjusts....its the mind that needs to adjust along with the body......thus I've been through Ativan, Watson, Actavis 'watson, Leading and Teva.....and I find no difference because I have stopped LOOKING for one.....if you feel anxious.....get busy-exercise, meditate, but stop focusing on how you are FEELING/body sensations....I promise..focus on living and whatever you are taking will be fine..

I tried the new Teva brand today and I have no issues. Very similar to watson/activas maybe even slightly better. Don't focus on the negative. Thank you Richard for your positive input
