Teva Lorazepam Reviews
(Newest replies 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.

REPORT

My pharmacy switched to Teva this week and I'm currently feeling pretty bad. I have taken all of the brands over the years and for me Teva is the worst. I actually complained directly to the company a few years ago and for years there was a note in my pharmacy records that I cannot take the Teva brand but it has somehow disappeared. I truly feel as though I'm going through withdrawal.

Re: Richard H (# 672)

Unfortunately the decline in activity is due to changes that Google made for ranking independent sites such as this one. It's less related to the name change. The main issue that came up when the domain was shortened from "MedsChat" to "RxChat" is that some email messages started ending up in spam, but that seems to have improved. But that email issue didn't account for the drop in activity. What you are observing is mostly because of the Google algorithm.

Re: Leebs (# 671)

I'm really curious why there aren't people here any more like there once was. Was it the change from MedsChat to Rxchat? In my case my email started dumping email from here into my spam folder -and I just kept emptying it....please- CHANGE IT BACK! I was given the reason for the name change is that it was too long when called "Medschat"...we are talking 2 extra letters!.....isn't it odd that after the name change participation in this and other chat dropped considerably? The old adage "if its not broken don't fix it" sure seems to apply here!

Re: Richard H (# 670)

I’m on Leading, while not as good as others in the past, it’s tolerable. I agree that the quality across the board has gone down. I would like this thread to stay open as I’ve always found it informative and helpful.

Is everyone now content with the brand of lorazepam they are taking or has this thread become sparse because people have switched to other meds? Or.....has everyone realized that all the generics really do work and are basically all the same except for the fillers...the fillers are the key....

It is a shame. A very valuable site that provides helpful information to those that need it. There’s really nowhere else to go. Hope you hang in there and thanks.

Re: Richard H (# 664)

Appreciate the feedback Richard. Unfortunately emails being routed into spam is only part of the issue. The main problem relates to Google demoting this site over the past few years.

For instance, this thread was seeing hundreds of views per month this time last year. As of today (Oct 17th) we're up to only 19 views on this page.

Google has decided to kill off many independent sites and is now favoring:

- Large corporate or VC-backed sites.
- Sites that game the search algorithm with pages written for SEO and other tricks. Recovery centers are notorious for this.

This is in spite of them saying that they're going to surface more content from user communities such as this one. We've never played the "SEO" game, as it goes against what a community is all about. It's a shame really.

Re: RxChat Admin (# 662)

You are right...they are going into my spam folder...on ipad, I tell it to move to inbox, they don't. In the Gmail app...they do not appear AT ALL......not in spam or anywhere else.....this never happened when name was medschat (is rxchat REALLY that much shorter to remember?) Seems all participants had no problem....now please note...hardly anyone is posting!

Re: RxChat Admin (# 662)

Since the name change, i have not received a single email notification - and they are not in my spam folder....not sure what I can do. Were people actually having difficulty with a name like "Medschat"? Why do unnecessary changes always screw things up?

This article might help: MedsChat is now RxChat

Re: emails, you may need to check your spam folder, as we've had reports that our messages are ending up in there lately.

When did this page turn from Medschat to Rxchat? It dawned on me over this Summer of 2024 I've received no notifications of any posts in any of the lorazepam chats. Is it because everyone is now satisfied with what they are taking and not posting or has the name change screwed things up?

Re: Irastas (# 657)

Not sure who this is addressed to..but Leading is a pharmaceutical house with one office literally within a half mile from me. They make generics but I have no knowledge of what else they make.

Re: Leebs (# 654)

So sorry I haven't answered until now... I wondered what happened to this group...all of a sudden my ipad started throwing emails from here into my junk folder, never happened before... The pharmacy that carries Teva is CVS!

Re: Irastas (# 657)

Leading Pharmaceuticals is a generic drug manufacturer. One of the last that sells generic Ativan (lorazepam) in the USA.

Good to know about Lorax by Concern Pharma. I guess when I lose my commercial insurance for Medicare in 15 years and lose coverage for the very expensive brand Ativan from Bausch, I'll retire to the UK where I can get a good quality generic lorazepam!

By "Leading Pharma" I take it that you are referring to original proprietary brand names Temesta, Ativan and Tavor, the brand names used by Pfizer? Personally I find that the 2.5mg generic, pink and embossed "MP21" which I am dispensed almost always, are more efficacious than the Pfizer original brands. Here in UK the name used most often is Ativan though if imported from Europe, Temesta is not uncommonly seen.
I can readily recommend the Indian brand Lorax-2 by Consern, even if they are only 2mg rather than the usual 2.5mg.
