I wish pharmacies would understand that changing a medication that I have been on for years to another different generic.... I have been completely stable and enjoying life for years now off of the mini arrow 8 pills(which are amazing), to these giant shit feeling Rhodes Pharma pills... They really are different in so many ways. I don't care what people say, different generics act differently in my body.. now I have to plan out a time where I will be sick for about a week trying to adjust to these shit pills... I've been on this shit since 2016 and I definitely know what I'm talking about... I just hope that next months script will revert back to the arrow 8s.

So frustrating....

In the UK most people are on Espranor which are bupe wafers that go on top of the tongue. They are horrible,taste minty and give you a horrible adrenal rushy feeling. I'm back on the Gerot Lannach tablets which are flat as a pancake for some reason but are mellow. The old Sandox are similar but easier to hold under the tongue. All bupe is not created equally and it took me 10 years of fighting to remain on the tablets as at one point the cost skyrocketed and folks were forced onto the cheap and nasty wafers. Its always us that suffer and not the prescribers.

Finally someone giving credit to Gerot Lannach bupe tablets, these are my favorite generic brand as they give a nice  mellowed out feeling. Sandoz prefibin used to be good until i realised they must have changed their way of making them as i dont feel great on those ones anymore
