sonicwhite Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Okay we won't go into Roche cuz we know there the bes tbut, I went to a mom and pop pharmacy that use to sell purepsc and I got the teva. The only time I liked teva was when I first started to use klonopin but as my plasma levels were calibrated right. I found the Sandoz brand way better. Purepac second mylan third teva fourth and qaulitist fifth. So whats your take? Which one do you like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jt07 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 It never mattered to me. But if you have a preference, you can usually request to have your prescription filled with a particular brand, especially at the smaller pharmacies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissaw72 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I can't tell the difference either. Whatever kind is at the pharmacy and covered by insurance is the kind I get and I have never had a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eden Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 All the same to me, the filler is all very quickly dissolved and the chemical/dosage is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wj74 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Me too, no difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alien Navel Cord Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 I never paid attention to what brand I got. I think the clonazepam I took was Teva but it never mattered to me. I've never been able to tell the diff between brand name and generic ones anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midnightman Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I would always notice if they were different aesthetically but never any different effects - they all pretty much seemed the same. I was only on generics, but probably tried about 3 different variations of the same dose, as well as the SL form generic too. I think everybody has personal preferences but I never minded which I got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antigone Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I don't even know which generic I'm on, and I have been for almost five years. Hmmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midnightman Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I don't even know which generic I'm on, and I have been for almost five years. Hmmmm. Has your pharmacy only given you one kind over the past 5 years? That's interesting - the pharmacy I use is like a mom & pop local pharmacy that tends to switch their suppliers back and forth so I've gotten used to getting different generics for my meds. I bet places like rite aid and CVS have contracts with wholesalers to only supply one type at a certain price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet places like rite aid and CVS have contracts with wholesalers to only supply one type at a certain price. I go to CVS, and from what I'm told (I asked one time because the pills looked different), they buy the least expensive they can of a med from a company, so if a generic has a price increase, the pharmacist looks into buying the same generic from another company. The only way I know this is because the pills look different from different companies ... I asked, " Why are they different from last time?" and pharmacist said, "They're cheaper." (but they work the same way). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonicwhite Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 I gave up trying the different flavors and just said Oh well klonopin is klonopin (clonazepam) and it just doesn't make any difference to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I'm on Xanax, but recently switched pharmacies and brands (from APO to Mylan) The pills are slightly larger, lighter in colour when compared, but they do the same damn thing for my anxiety.

Yes, that is how retail works and the pharmacy is no different. Buy as low as possible and sell as high as possible, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
