Teva No Longer Manufacturers Clonazepam, and I personally feel it is a good thing. Teva, in my opinion, is a low-quality company who actually manufacturers 70% of their products overseas, in cities and communities I don't think you would want to live in. I find the change-over, in terms of most of my medications, including clonazapam 2mh hs to be more effective than before. There are, of course, individual differences, but this is how it is for me personally. Would anyone else care to comment?

Re: magicman909 (# 92) 
Hey, what state are you in? I called my pharmacy in PA and they told me the Teva aren't available to order. I'm wondering if maybe they havent' made it to every state yet.

Re: bob (# 88)
Same here. I got .05s from Walmart. They are made by Sandoz for Northstar. Unlike Teva, where you never know what you get because they have 25 manufacturing plants the Sandoz/NS is manufactured in Italy. I like consistency and every bottle I got of Teva worked differently. Teva also hurt my stomach and made me constipated. No problem with NS

Re: Samuel (# 86)
I have not found that to be the case. I use 1 mg twice a day, same as I did with the regular tabs.

Re: ArlisT (# 84)
Im glad they are working for you. The only problem with the ODT tabs is they dont contain the ingredient providone, which is what i think makes the Teva brand work so much better than others. The providone affects how quickly the medicine is released in the bloodstream, basically its like a time-released pill. Hoping they bring back the old Teva by end of summer!

Re: Ed (# 3)
I, too, used TEVA brand clonazepam for years and was suddenly switched to Activis with no explanation. I learned that TEVA had bought Activis Pharmaceuticals, and was no longer producing clonazepam tablets - but distributing the Activis brand instead.
Further research showed that, at least for now, TEVA *does* still manufacture 1 mg clonazepam in the orally dissolving tablet. My pharmacist, nor my doctor knew this. I had to find it out myself and tell my doctor. Your doctor has to write the scrip for 'TEVA ODT' (orally dissolving tablets), and you might have to wait for your pharmacy to order them and get them in for you. Like I said, my pharmacist didn't even know about these - she just changed me to the new brand with no warning, bounced me back and forth between Accord and Activs - both utterly useless for me. Different people react differently, but if you have a problem with these other brands, tell your doctor about it, and ask him to write you a new scrip for the TEVA ODT.

I got a call today from TEVA, I called them back and spoke to them. They now are saying it’s definitely coming back, not that they are hoping, it’s definite. They are not exactly sure how long but will know much more in the next couple weeks. So it’s 100% happening people!!! I was just surprised that they called me, I didn’t answer but called them back and got the directory and was super pumped, I called them like 2 months ago and I’m surprised they remembered me. So if you have contacted them and get a call from Pennsylvania answer it. I didn’t get the chance to speak to the specific person who called and would really like to know exactly why they called but after calling them back I got the definitive answer. We won, nice job guys.

Re: Klonz (# 77)
I got an email from them back in April, its pasted below. Just wondering if anyone has seen them in pharmacies yet.
Email from Teva:
Good Morning,
Thank you for contacting Teva Pharmaceuticals Customer Service Department. We have recently been notified that we are hoping to have the original Teva Clonazepam available within approximately the next 3 to 4 months, mid to late summer. Since the product has been unavailable for many months, it will need to be reintroduced. The best way to be notified when this product is available is to go to our tevagenerics.com website. On the main page is a box that says ‘Get Informed’. Putting your email address in this box will notify you any time a new product launches with Teva. That will be the most efficient way for you to be notified when this product becomes available.
I hope this information has been helpful in addressing your concerns. Please feel free to call us at 1-800-545-8800 or email at [email protected] if you have any additional questions. Thank you very much for contacting us and please enjoy the rest of your day.

Re: Sam (# 76)
They’re not, no matter what you hear hear. They chose to use the Actavis pill over their Teva brand when they bought Actavis. They have no reason to change things no matter how much you call or email them. Find a different generic or go brand name.

Interesting because my Dr said TEVA was better than other generics. Luckily I no longer take it.
