You wrote "The Orange Book is the FDA guide to all approved medications and lists some standard guidelines to how generics are tested and approved."
BUT 10 years into Mylan's generic approval by the FDA--When was the last time a random sample analysis of Mylan's generic diazepam was done?
It was done 10 years ago. The Mylan's dissolve with much more "courseness" than generic Lederle diazepam. Why do Pharmacies have SO MANY Mylan generics? Because they are cheaper!
It is estimated that about 70% maximum delivery comes from Mylan diazepam. This means --if you take a 10mg Mylan diazepam --you're getting 7 mg and a 5mg you're getting 3.5mg of diazepam.
WHY does the Lederle generic diazepam work exactly like the Brand Valium? And why don't all of the BIG pharmacies use it (Lederle?!)
MYLAN IS UNSCRUPULOUS.
BOYCOTT Pharmacies that dish out cheap,inferior Mylan Generics. Start with CVS!And the FDA has little or NO protocol for random follow up field testing--because of funding--
Ten years ago Mylan was "exactly the same" as Valium.So...don't LISTEN or even bother to Ask any Pharmacist if it's the SAME pharmacolygy
UNLESS you want to ask them for the generic brand of Depakote...because the "generic" Depakote
killed quite a few people and left many many others in pain and suffering!Please take this message PRO-ACTIVELY and DO SOMETHING to stop Greed=Stealing and Suffering.
This nation USED to be concerned about the WELFARE of its People.Copy The Body of this message and PASS it on, PLEASE!
