Teva Lorazepam Reviews (Page 23) (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.

Re: Larry (# 339)

the watson your referring to belongs to teva and teva is now making their own garbage, the only way i know to find any left over watson brand is by going to an independant pharmacy, i just discovered one in my neighborhood and they still get the watson brand, for how long? who knows

Re: Larry (# 339)

Have you tried including Aurobindo? or brand? I'm in the process of finding the right lorazepam for me. I have not dared to increase the dose. I read here there is lorazeoam ER

Re: Lex (# 342)

Hi Lex, I haven’t tried Aurobindo due to the fact that it appears to contain the same exact inactive ingredients as Leading; and I had a terrible experience with Leading. I haven’t tried brand due to its cost; it is quoted at $4000 per month where I reside. I tried a 1/4 tablet of Teva and within about 5 min my throat felt like it was going to close; I have an epi pen for other allergens and I didn’t have to use it and the feeling lasted for about 4 or 5 hours;not too sure I want to try that again, good luck and thanks for your response.

Because they buy what is the cheapest and available at the time they order their supplies. Depending on what state your in also controls this as well.

Re: Lex (# 340)

It's been my experience that the fillers cause a lot of trouble for many of us. This Major I've been getting blows chunks. Only generic I've had luck with us Aurobindo since the list of Mylan.

Re: Larry (# 343)

Larry if you get your hands on Aurobindo it might just work for you. I've done the blind test on Leading and Aurobindo like others have done with Mylan vs Leading. Aurobindo is pretty close to Mylan. Least it is for me. I don't know about y'all but I'm beyond tired of this switching brands. It's the fillers and possibly the main ingredient that might be more in some of the crappy ones. To me if that's true it would explain the over drugged feeling I have. But least I'm not in withdrawals not having anything. It's a great feeling sounding like we're crack heads looking for a fix.

Has anyone else been on the current brand name to compare efficacy to the generics?

I'm on the brand name now, but I honestly have so many other health issues going on currently I don't want to offer an assessment to give people a wrong impression one way or the other.

My general impression in the past was that it worked pretty well when it was made in Germany, and when they brought the manufacturing in house (to Bausch) in Canada, it didn't work well for me, which is when I switched to Actavis. But now I'm back on it. Most people probably wouldn't know that their manufacturing changed because the imprints stayed the same. I'm not talking about the change from Wyeth to Bausch (also known before as Biovail and Valeant). But a couple of years ago the brand was outsourced to Germany and made by a company called Meda, which I thought was pretty good. It didn't work as well for me after it switched to being made in Canada (which again you wouldn't see if you didn't get the manufacturer bottle). I know how it compared to Actavis, but not sure how it compares to Aurobindo which it seems more people now think works well. Has anyone been on both?

Re: Jibbs55 (# 346)

Hi Jibbs55.

Update; My pharmacy can’t get Aurobindo, only Teva. Does anyone know of any independent pharmacies that still can get Watson/Actavis in Southern California? Even though it seems this is a watered down version and only lasts about 4 hours compared to before where it lasted like 8-12. I appreciate any and all responses!

Re: Larry (# 358)

Hi Larry,

There are now only three lorazepam generics being sold in the US: Teva, Leading and Aurobindo.

Check out my post #336. There is a licensed US online pharmacy (in your state California) that sells lorazepam and lets you specify which generic manufacturer you want. They have all three including Aurobindo. I have no personal experience with them, just came across when searching for info on Aurobindo lorazepam.

Re: Henry (# 359)

Hi Henry, thanks for the info, I appreciate it. I’m not too sure about Aurobindo cause I seems to have the same exact inactive ingredients as Leading, which was horrible for me. I need to either switch it to another Benzo or try to locate Watson before they are gone forever.

Re: Lex (# 361)

Hi Lex, yes another website said Teva and Watson have the same exact ingredients as well. I have Watson for about another month and already refilled my Rx with Teva so I have no idea what I’m going to do

Re: Lex (# 364)

I'm being told the aurobindo brand is getting harder to get. Ive had a problem with 2 pharmacies running out and now they aren't getting it when they order it. Leading and teva brand sent me into withdrawals and now auro bindo appears to be going away as well. I have been on lorazepam for 23 years due to major panic attacks.. I have to take it every day. 3mgs a day. I'm very scared.

Re: Teresa (# 366)

Hmm that's not good. Even that online pharmacy Honey Bee Health I posted about below shows all Aurobindo strengths "out of stock". Unfortunately Aurobindo refuses to provide availability information to the tracking authority on shortages, Ashp, so no way to know if it's backordered or discontinued. Generally it's not common for all sizes to be unavailable so they might be leaving the lorazepam market.

I was taking brand name Ativan for ~20 years as prn for anxiety. I had to stop taking it because it was contaminated (from the pharmacy).

The quality of the brand name has changed over time - it is not as smooth as it once was. The hospital i go to has also switch to valium due to said circumstances.

I have never taken a generic, but the brand name is not that great anymore. sad to say...
