Different Brand of Lorazepam

My pharmacy recently switched from the Mylan brand of Lorazepam to Leading Pharmaceutical. It's seems different to me.

I feel way more on edge with this brand.

Does anyone have any experience with this brand?

I found that the generic of lorazepam is not quite as good as the brand, although I have adjusted to it. There does appear to me to be small differences between different manufacturers.

I've had many different brands over the years. This one has been .. just different... hopefully I'll get use to it soon.

Thank you for the response

No experience with this but I could tell when they switched my normal brand, apparently it can be what they mix the drug with to bulk it out , I looked at the ingredients and spoke to the chemist.. they used to order the one in I got on with and put a note on the system!

I felt just like you , even thought to start with they said I was being daft .. don’t be palmed off if you feel they’re not suiting, hope this helps.

Thank you. I'm going to speak with pharmacist after the Holidays. Maybe they can trade them out.
