Ever since the generic Didrex (Benzphetamine) has been out, my insurance company won't cover the actual Didrex, but only the generic. I dont know who manufactures them, but they dont work, and if you dont get to swallow with enough water or liquid, they taste like crap. Main thing is they are just what they say; "generic". Only the actual Didrex pills work in aiding weight loss and appetite control, and both requires a doctor's prescription. ## Have you tried asking your doctor to write your prescription as 'brand medically necessary', or whatever the equivalent is in your state? Then, your insurance has to cover it and the pharmacy is not allowed to give you a generic. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and it may cause si...

I just received a prescription from my primary care doctor. I asked him for it and he agreed to a few month trial and monitor blood pressure. I'm about 50 pounds overweight. I had taken didrex in the 80's and it worked well! He prescribed benzphetamine a generic form. It has the same effect as the brand name I used to take. It is pink, round and stamped with k40 on it. I'm sure there are other generic brands. The answer to is it banned is no, but my pharmacy had to order it. It's certainly not banned in tennessee! ## It is still available, as a generic, as you said, but many doctors prefer to use more recently discovered medications that have undergone more safety testing. The FDA warns that you should not imbibe in alcoholic beverages, while taking this medication, due ...

I found a round peach pill with a k then a line threw the middle, then the number 40 on one side and nothing on the other side. ## Hello, Blue! How are you? This tablet is manufactured by KVK Tech and they list it as containing 50mgs of Benzphetamine. The FDA classifies this medication as being an anorexiant and CNS stimulant that is used as an appetite suppressant. Typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, weight loss, insomnia, nervousness and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with?

This substance almost feels too good to be true: An all-day stimulant with few side effects, tons of euphoria & a mild comedown. The medical literature reveals nothing untoward about it, only that it was banned in the U.S. due to "drug abuse & psychiatric events", which could certainly apply to Adderall, Desoxyn, Dexedrine, or Ritalin. Furthermore it's technically legal due to being an analogue of a CIII drug (Benzphetamine). So not truly "banned", just not approved for prescription or sale. As we all know, there are no free lunches in the drug world. So what am I missing about clobenzorex? Is it uniquely toxic to the heart? Brain? Does it raise blood pressure more than other uppers; damage the liver or kidneys in some way? (Examples of uniquely dangerous sti...

I took Didrex years ago like 1978 to1982 . I found it worked well on my appetite and energy level ## Hi Greg, I don't mean to get off on the wrong foot, but when the following three words are used in the same sentence "internet, pharmacy, and safety", the first thing that comes to my mind is SCAM. And while there are a handful of sites that require you to upload a copy of your prescription before checking out, most of those web-based pharmacies are unlicensed and unreliable when it comes to actually getting what you paid for. If you want to obtain this medication legally here in the US, it's going to have to come in the form of a prescription since Didrex (Benzphetamine) is a Schedule III controlled substance. The medication itself doesn't appear to be banned or anyt...
