Teva Lorazepam Reviews (Page 31) (Top voted first)
UpdatedI'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: GSRMIKE2377 (# 571)
Are there shortages of Teva Lorazepam? I’ve had Leading before and it was tolerable for me.
Re: GSRMIKE2377 (# 571)
For what it's worth...the Watson that you actually liked....hasn't been the real Watson since 2013 when Actavis bought them out (molds and all) and continued using those molds right up until Teva bought THEM out....whether the formula remained the same as the original Watson, I don't know.
Re: Leebs (# 573)
Yes. Until mid to late December in all mgs
Re: Gsrmike2377 (# 576)
I had Leading after 2018...in fact I have it currently.......other than its sweetish taste and its thickness, I see no difference between Teva and Leading but neither are as good as Watson pre-2013. Just my impression...remember-everyone responds differently to the inactive fillers....not necessarily the fillers themselves but how they either enhance or inhibit the active ingredient getting into your system.
Re: Gsrmike2377 (# 575)
Thanks, saw that on ASHP. Hopefully Leading & Aurobindo will keep in stock.
Re: Gsrmike2377 (# 576)
It's still garbage. Big Pharma has been putting 233 million into Washington every year since 1998. What do you think they get in return? Spineless representatives in Washington and an FDA that does absolutely nothing.
Re: Leebs (# 573)
wrote to teva about teva disappearing on the shelfs, they are on back order til november

Re: Jibbs55 (# 585)
its not the fillers .... your obviously not aware of the FDA laws in places... the active ingredient can be up to 20% less in Bioequivalence and bioavailability from name brand to generic pills its not in our head or the fillers you could go from one manufacturer to the next and be cutting your dose...
Re: GSEMIKE2377 (# 589)
I'm being taken off against my will. It's not a 10% reduction. It's some military conversion chart that they use. There's no room to wiggle. I'm looking for someone new and have been speaking to a legal team. I never heard of the website you posted. Hit to the heart the testimonies many folks have spoken about being taken off abruptly. I have read a lot about the Ashton taper over the years. Lady knew what she was doing. Peace!
Re: Lou (# 2)
I am searching for opinions on Leading lorazepam as this Aurobindo had tried it's best to kill me off the last 4 days. My choices are that or Leading so I am totally lost from here. I am far from the only one from what I have read.
Re: Paula (# 595)
i feel bad as you have a choice of bad and real bad, i would be looking at pharmacies outside the county because your choices are just terrible, m&m;s would work better than your present choices, good luck
Re: Paula (# 595)
Leading works much better than M&Ms but not for everyone.
Re: joe (# 596)
Nothing but Leading in my area. Can't help but think it has to be better than Aurobindo. I have been on it for a week and sick every day. Wonder if there is any chance I will adjust to it after awhile. My doc wants me to go to ER but what could they do but take my money for the visit?
Re: joe (# 580)
I read they may be back online in mid to late December for Teva.
Re: Paula (# 600)
That's what Walgreens told me too.....I like Teva better than Leading if for no other reason-smaller pills, smaller bottles.
Re: Gsrmike2377 (# 598)
If this Aurobindo is taking such a toll on me, is it possible that I might adjust to it? What symptoms did you have going from Watson to Teva? I take one in the morning and start the shaking and lightheadedness and pretty much feel the same after the other doses. I would try my best to ride it out if I thought I would adjust. Today it is affecting my stomach and I feel hopeless and cry alot. I had been on Teva prior to this. No problems
Re: Paula (# 607)
Paula can you tell me what strength of the Aurobindo you've been giving. I'm curious because I just got a small supply today to bridge me till I get my new fill and it's 1mg Aurobindo. I kid you not it feels like what I had before in both 0.5 - 1mg. It's been years since I've felt relief. If anyone else could chime in and let me know what strength y'all have been saying has changed I'd be grateful. I've only taking one 1mg pill and I'm feeling pretty good. Fill me in guys. Peace y'all!
Re: Jibbs55 (# 611)
Mine is .5 and still making me sick every day. We have 2 psych docs at the local clinic and neither will change it for me or order another brand. All they tell me to do is go to ER. Maybe if I did they could order me something else but I really doubt that. I just am couch bound until around 8 when I can do a little. Glad to hear it's working for you. I haven't heard many say it worked for them.
Re: GSRMIKE2377 (# 571)
Just know that if you switch to valium from lorazepam you have to wean from the lorazepam. I found that out the hard way even though I told the dr that I couldn't just go from one to another. First day, I had withdrawals from the lorazepam that the valium didn't touch. They metabolize differently is the reason.
