The Liquid Diazapam I ended up with
« on: October 03, 2019, 09:35:18 pm »
Well, it tiuns out there is no Teva Liquid that can be had according to my pharmacist  :tickedoff:
And the old Hikma is going to not be manufactured anymore.  So of course, this has me a little nervous. What I ended up with, after pharmacist did some research, knowing I was withdrawing and needed consistency , was Sol Roxan.  He said from what he could find, this one seemed to have best chance of being available.  The only good thing, it was $27.00 , which really didn't matter, but needed something positive right then.
I wanted to think worse case scenario, but realized, I have no idea, this may be perfect liquid for me.  I had no idea if the other two would be good.  I am determined to cross slowly and hope for the best.
I still have my Teva pills if I don't do well. 
Everyone wish me luck.  [...] 🍀🍀🍀🍀

In the US, the primary mfgr of liquid V was Roxane Labs.  A few years ago, the formulation as acquired by West Labs, and even more recently I have seen info saying they are no longer the supplier.  But what ever brand-name you get it from, it is almost certainly the same thing.

I had the Roxane brand.  And there are probably 2 different formulas, the Diazepam Oral Solutiom (1mg=1ml) and the Diazepam Intensol (5mg=1ml)  Actually, either will work for tapering, but the 1mg=1ml is much better suited.

Oh thanks [...], you made me feel much better.  With what the Teva clon people are going through with generics, this was starting to worry me.  I was fighting it  :),  but that really helped.  [...] 💜

I just did some google research myself and was thinking about calling pharmacist.  However, now that [...] has posted, I am just going to try and go with what I have.  I can't let myself get really anxious when I really don't know yet what Liquid would be best for me.  I truly don't have any idea and I maybe one of those people that don't notice the generic changes very much, that's what I am hoping.  I am going to cross slowly and am still holding awhile before beginning the cross.  Thanks for caring  :smitten: :smitten:  5588  ;)
