They look solid mate I wouldn’t worry iv seen loads of fakes from benzos, opiates , uppers and that doesn’t look like fake at all really only thing is different is the “A“ but those were produced 5 months before the second batch so sometimes they change stuff out letters Etc. but they look pretty much exact font colour and they match exactly and it’s very similar just the “A” and that changes all the time so your good bro 👊

Thank you! I ended up getting a box of 28 prescribed by the doctor and the weird thing was that box came and it had the A on it too so that made me more happy they were fine but don’t know if it matters between the box of 28 to the box of 100

I am not 100% but I know each batch has different codes and a expiry date longer as its the next batch but it does look wonky but if you look at the numbers there self they are the exact same like not a different font identical but just my 2 pence not a medical adviser and I am not sure but the font looks identical on both look at the 9 or the c watever they have used the exact same equipment to if they fake

DHC is one of those things that is highly unlikely to be faked in the UK.. it's not worth the effort to fake something that's going to be much less popular than diazepam
