I have found that many manufacturers that manufacture diazepam have different feelings and strengths. (I am making the assumption that all are at 10 mg )Some being more mellow. Others giving you more energy and others more sedation.
Any one elao gave some similar thoughts? Granted I know that they mix the diazepam formula with something different but just was wondering if anybody had a little bit more insight into this topic.

We are all different and I guess pills vary from person to person in how they work. But i think there is probably a consesenus to which brands are better.
Can't say I've had any that have given me more energy though lol!!

If we accept that the pill is genuine and has 10mg of diazepam in it , then many say "diazepam is diazepam". But of course the pill has fillers, binders to hold it together, things to make sure it dissolves properly, or it may have a tiny amount of sweetener added. Many have a smooth surface that is almost like a dry lubricant. It helps the pills through the factory rather than bunching and getting stuck. If supplied loose it stops them sticking together, and in many cases they are slightly easier to swallow. There is a lot more to it than just dumping in the diazepam and filling the rest with starch.
Look up "excipient" if you want to know more. There is a whole area of science about it, especially when working to ensure the drug actually reaches the right part of the body, or isn't destroyed by stomach acid.
On the personal variation side, never underestimate how powerful the placebo effect is. And I'm afraid that knowing about placebo doesn't free you from it - it still happens. It isn't any weakness as placebo is an entirely normal psychological process.

I agree with your view point.. however I went to a country at purchased some diazepam that hit faster than I had ever experienced and had a really long peak. Must say blew my aocks off right out the water! I would even go as far as saying they were superior to that of the Roche brand this bran I speake of was Mexican. Thats why I wanted to know if any one else has noticed better Vals than others.

I think this is a quality control problem rather than a different manufacturing process issue. As has been said, 10mg of Diaz is 10mg of Diaz, and will be the same drug no matter where from. The real issue is you cannot guarantee all manufacturers pills have 10mg of Diaz. There are also the personal factors to consider, for example codeine makes me whoozier on an empty stomach vs when I take it on a full stomach, so your personal pharmacology will impact efficacy and results, so whilst drugs will be inconsistent so is how your body will react to them.
My advice, find a supplier/brand whatever you trust and stick with it. Even here there will be some variability (all Coke does not taste the same!) but at least you know it’s Coke not Pepsi (its late, am I making an sense here ?)

What about Rivo tr!l brand?
but thank you either way, it's good to know that I can use nitra, tema recently is being less effective, tolerance I suppose and nitra seems a good substitute
