Lorazepam Forums (Page 4)

found in daughters bag (21 yrs old ) can't find out what it is ## Hello, Joche! How are you? Is the marking possibly WATSON 242 over 2? They list this tablet as containing 2mgs of Lorazepam. The FDA classifies this medication as a benzodiazepine that is most commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. It carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Why are you going through your 21 year old daughters belongings? Smh..

was told it is 1 mg lorazepam but cant find anyy information online supporting this.... can someone please help? ## If there are no markings, we can completely rule it out as being a U.S. manufactured prescription medication. They are all required to have markings to enable their identification. With no markings and based on your description, the greatest likelihood is that it is an over the counter product, however, there is also a small chance that it could be a foreign medication. Where was it found/obtained? ## I can confirm that a pill meeting this description is available in Australia, with the contents described. ## I'm trying to identify a small round white pill with no markings and scored on one side with one line. The front and back are concave.

A TINY WHITE ROUND PILL WITH 57 ON ONE SIDE AND A CANCER AWARENESS SYMBOL ON THE OTHER AND IT EVN LOOKS LIKE A R ## My son showed me a tiny white round pill, with ( I think, so tiny print) 93 on 1 side, 707? on the other. He said he was told it was some type of speeder pill, but he doesn't do that and brought it home for me to identify. I remember white crosses back in the '80s but I don't remember what those looked like so long ago. ## A tablet with the R 57 marking is manufactured by Actavis and they list it as containing 0.5mgs of Lorazepam, which is a generic for Ativan, it is most commonly used to treat anxiety, and nervous disorders. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, irritability, and h...

My local pharmacy recently changed from Qualitest lorazepam to Actavis (Watson). So I have to transfer. Most pharmacies here sell Leading Pharma or Actavis. I have an adverse reaction from Watson lorazepam (serious side effects with no calming effect). I used to take Ativan but it is too expensive to continue (I took it when I was abroad and from Kaiser in the U.S. but Kaiser changed it to generic Qualitest lorazepam). I do not use Kaiser insurance anymore. Qualitest is milder than Ativan in terms of effect, like 50%-60% of Ativan, but less dehydrated and OK considering it is generic. Ativan is $2600 for 1mg 30ea in cash. Besides, most insurance does not cover it or do not want to pay for it by forcing doctors to prescribe generic lorazepam instead. If you guys take Qualitest, could you...

I was taking Ranbaxy for almost 3 years and was just fine. No anxiety and no side effects. Then about a month and a half ago I started getting anxiety. Found out CVS changed to Mylan brand. I found I could get one more month's supply of Ranbaxy but at the two mg strength. Was a problem with dosage amount because I had to quarter the tablets. They cut in half nicely but the quartering was always unequal. I read this board and knew to stay away from Mylan, Watson and Santos (sp?) So I called around to the mom and pop pharmacies and found one that carried Excellium. I had read very little about Excellium on the forum but the pharmacist said he had been selling it for 10 years and never had a complaint. Scared to death, I transferred my two remaining refills to this place. I've been...

Recently pharmacist at cvs filled my prescritiom with mylan 777 2 mg. Did not work for me. I took it for 3 consecutive nights and it kept me awake. The last night I took 3. Went back to cvs and explained my experience to the pharmacist. He was very gracious and swapped it for the other company I normally use. Smaller pill. Thank you cvs. Has anyone had a similar problem with type of lorazepam? ## Mylan Pharmaceuticals does list that tablet as containing 2mgs of Lorazepam, which is a generic for Ativan. I never had a problem with it, but we are all different. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, and irritability. What are the markings on the other tablet you received? ## Yes. Mysn use to be the bes...

had nothing but bad news with the new sandoz lorazapm which is suppose to be the activus lorazapam, don't know what they did to the product but i have insomnia from the sandoz product, have no idea why there is such a change from each manufactorer, the product should be identical but they like to fool around with these meds and they seem not to care how it effects the patient, if anyone was using activus lorazam and has found something else since sandoz acquired the med, please pass on the info, have tried almost all the other and they don't work ## I have taken ativan (lorazepam) from Sandoz for years. The last prescription I got has given me problems just like the I had with two other manufactures ( Watson & Excellin). The problem is that they change the glue or filler wit...

Hi all... Just wondered...I have never gotten my Ativan from this company and have never seen it come in pink pills. Anyone else take these? ## Have you ever received an answer to this? I received the same type of pills and have never had Ativan pills that were pink either. Please let me know what you have learned! Thanks!! ## What are the markings on them? That is what would enable them to be identified for you. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, and irritability. ## Are there brown lorazepam pills, because I received some saying they were lorazepam?

I have been taking a round white Lorazepam pill from Watson, now my refill is from Ranbaxy. Do they work as well? ## I have been taking Lorazepam .5 mg to helpme sleep at night from Watson Pharm. 60 pills for $21.XX. Now the refill is from Ranbaxy Phar. and is lik $5.XX, I am afraid to take it, never heard of them. I told the Pharmacy not to change the Phar. company. Has anyone had this problem or any side effects? ## Ranbaxy is the worst for lorazepam im sure you already accepted them and found out for your self. Next time stick to Watson only brand that i feel work's at 0.5mg but they do work well for such a small pill ## Since this is a generic medication, your pharmacy will usually switch which one they carry, depending on which manufacturer was offering the cheapest price at th...

Has anybody taken this medicine which is a generic for Ativan manufactured in India? ## The drug brand named Lori (2 mg) is said to be manufactured by Cyril Pharmaceuticals. Just to clear up any confusion, it's not a generic for Ativan; just another brand name. Ativan is also a brand name. Lorazepam is the generic name. I personally haven't tried this brand, but others here on the site have mentioned that it is very weak in comparison to the US counterpart. There's nothing inherently wrong with purchasing meds from India, but from the reviews I've read, many people are complaining about the potency and overall efficacy not being up to par with US drugs. Would you agree with that? You can learn more about this drug on the page for Lorazepam Details I hope this helps! ## I...

I read that there are many side effects of Lorazepam. Anyone know of legal cases against this drug? I've heard it's for short term use and getting off it is dangerous and may cause suicidal thoughts. ## Hello, Peggy! How are you? Unfortunately, when it comes to the normal side effects, as long as they have been disclosed and are available for you to discover, there are no legal grounds to take action. Suits are usually only considered valid, when the manufacturer has hidden information about possible side effects, long-term effects and etc. Your taking the medication is considered as you having accepted the risk. I know that doesn't help you, I'm just letting you know how the law currently works. The FDA does warn that this medication carries the risk of being habit form...
