Watson Vs. Mylan Generic Lorazepam Side Effects. (Page 27)

Been on Sandoz mfr. lorazepam for 10 years; no problems; no need to increase dose. Sandoz stopped mfr. Now, can only get these generic's & Actavis. Having lots of troubles getting results; either nothing or zonked. Anyone else w/any experience which mfr. is closer to Sandoz (since FDA approves up to 2% differences in generics). Thank you.

Re: Josh (# 518)

You are in for a big surprise, Josh. Google “Watson Pharmaceutical”. I believe that they have been bought by TEVA-which we agree on-not a good company! Pliva was a very good company. They were bought by Teva. They had problems and more problems. So many bad drugs that doctors, drug stores were told by the FDA that they must make all people taking certain meds. aware of this issue. So,guess what?? Teva now prints Pliva on their medications-which I don’t think is on the up and up unless Pliva bought them back??

I am not sure what is going on as far as Teva buying out Watson. I will research it. The last 3 refills I have gotten Leading Pharma brand and they are total junk. It had no sedative effects. And it takes the edge off sometimes. It's hit or miss. I have told my pharmacy to order me the Watson's and they said they would so if they were bought out this pharmacist didn't know it. I'll keep posting updates.

Can you tell me the milligram of a Lorazepam that is a small white round pill with the capital letters E-P and underneath the number 905? It's a Lorazepam but I don't know what the milligram is. Please let me know. {edited for privacy}

Spot on. I take 8mg of ativan daily for the last 8 years. Taking that low of a dose i wouldn't panic. Keep getting the smaller MG until u cant.

Was on Watson, now they are no longer making it and have changed to Teva and I am in withdrawal. You also cannot cut the Teva to decrease your dose.

Walgreens around here are completely overwhelmed and are not open on weekends. They are not like that with newcomers and I asked if they had a medicine in short supply and I could barely get to the counter.

I agree Watson was the best and now you cannot get it. Teva substitution doesn't work ):

That is precisely what made me switch benzos to taper after taking Watson for close to 2 decades

I’m looking to get Lorazepam prescribed for my anxiety as I find it very difficult to find Valium. I was taking it for over 12 years when I ran out. Five milligrams in the morning give me fine. Any advice would help. By the way I'm in the UK.

All the generic lorazepam in the States IMO is garbage.
