Looking For Lorazepam That Is Exactly Like Watson Brand (Page 4)
Updated
jmk Says:
I've been taking Watson Pharmaceuticals Lorazepam and it worked great. Apparently, Actavis just took over Watson, and Watson no longer exists. I'm looking for another bran of Lorazepam that has the same Active & Inactive ingredients as the Watson brand, however, I can't locate the info on line and my pharmacy won't help me. Does anyone know what other manufacturer carries Lorazepam that is exactly the same as the Watson brand. Actavis and Sandoz manufacturer's Lorazepam does not work.

Re: Cyntjia (# 62)
Am having exact same problem. Was on watson for » 6 yrs. They no longer exist. I called fda. Was told teva owns Watson now. Even tried to call watson labs. No answer. Am taking teva & not the same at all. Called cvs, wallgreens, walmart, weis....none carry watson. Only have teva, leading, abinio (sp). Was told by one rx to try hospital pharmacy, but seems like a lost cause. Will try teva for now, as I need this med & am not ready to wean off, but teva is nasty, nothing like watson.

How’s it working out for you with the Teva Lorazepam. I just finished the last of my 1 mg Watson’s and I am not looking forward to the switch. I tried the Teva USA 0.5 mg and they were awful. They did not do anything for me.

India! The pharmacist never heard of it. Actavis Watson for a long time. No problems. I am making calls to find it.

No it is not around anymore. The only one
that worked for me. Stay away from Teva lorazepam it knocks you out and palpitations.

Re: Cyntjia (# 62)
Was your breathing problem from taking the Teva? I have been on Watson brand for 15 plus years. Switched to Teva and now having pressure in my chest and can’t take a good deep breath. Talked to doctor he said to get off my Benadryl. I don’t think that’s the problem. Anyone else having this problem with Teva?

Doesn’t work! It’s total crap!! You can tell because it dissolved INSTANTLY unlike Watson being a stronger pill made with better ingredients. My anxiety doesn’t subside taking teva than it did taking Watson. I’ve also noticed Anytime something is popular and works well.. they quit making it. There HAS to be a resin for it that only benefits Big Pharma.

Re: Neesee (# 64)
I originally was taking Actavis clonazepam. Ventiva bought them over and discontinued it. So I had to take Teva clonazepam. And it made me so agitated my heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest! I had changed over to lorazepam made by watson. It, my nerves I didn't have to take a lot I was able to fall asleep. I can't seem to find anyone that sells watson. I've been taking Lorazepam by Teva and it does the same thing the clinic has a Pam did from Teva it just makes me so tense and it feels like my heart is just being twisted

Re: Sarah (# 67)
Actually I had the same symptoms or side effects that you did from Teva lorazepam. And Teva clonazepam. I had to take a small half of my Benadryl just to come my nerves and fall asleep. So your doctor is incorrect

Re: Richard (# 56)
Update: began taking Teva - was wonder...i read it was made in Israel. It felt like the old Watson. But by next prescription something had changed.... i don't think it was me... i began to feel anxious only a few hours after taking it. I discovered it was now made in the Czech Republic.....Its definitely not the Teva I started out with...now every chain pharmacy, costco and independents sell it as their only lorazepam......it must be very cheap...but for me quite unsatisfactory.
