Is anyone else having an issue with this?
I've been on Kl0n many years now. Small dose, prescribed. I've been on Tev@ brand for about a decade, maybe longer.
I've tried just about every other generic, and tried brand name a few months, and actually preferred the Tev@. Each work differently, in a matter. I'm quite sensitive to my medication, however.
Doing some research on Tev@ and the differences between other brands, it's been found that basically the only difference in ingredients is povidone. Not a single other brand has this, including name brand. Basically, from what I've gathered is that this helps make the medicine last longer, so you aren't needing to dose as often. Tev@ acquired Act@vis, which made I'd say top 3 after Tev@, but I can't for the life of me understand why they would stop making their own brand and continue on with Act@vis ingredients. Not only this, but I believe they are changing it as well, so older Act@vis pills won't be the same as the new ones.
It's been about 2-3 months now, and I am having problems with it basically stop working faster. It kind of feels like a X@n XR or something.. hard to explain, I suppose.
Now for a question..
Tev@ is still making V@Llum. So I asked my Dr. about switching, but I don't know if her conversion is correct. Let's say, I get 2mg a day of K. I've read I'd need about 20-40mg of V. Which is a big difference. I was told by Dr max would be 15mg of V. Is this correct? I've always been interested in getting prescribed V instead, but Tev@s K worked so well, I didn't want to change what wasn't broke, so to speak. Now, with this new change, I am not sure if I should give this a go. After so many years of K, will 15mg be enough?
Thank you guys.
Hope everyone is doing well!
