Barr Labs and DuPont makes it. It's supposed to be the same stuff. Try it and

see.

If it's the same stuff, then what is wrong with the generic from

Barr Lab? Seems they would be the same ingredients, just one has

Revia on it and they make it cost more. Are there different

Naltrexones out there? Some not as good or what? I don't

understand it at all and I'm back to normal after 3 doses of Mexico

Revia and I don't want to go backwards again.

The problem since the advent of “generic”

medications is that although they supposedly are the same, that is not

necessarily true. Even though the same ingredients are used,

manufacturing processes differ from facility to facility within companies, not

to mention between companies. Therefore, REVIA from DuPont and REVIA from

Barr have the same ingredients as does Naltrexone from Barr, but how they are

assembled can make a difference in how they react. Sounds strange, but

alas, it is so. I worked for many years as a research mechanical engineer

developing dispense mechanisms for chemicals. One of the things I found

out was that our equipment when moved from company to company to make the same

product always had to be tweaked to produce satisfactory results simply because

of how things are put together in the manufacturing process.

So, REVIA from DuPont could most possibly

be different not in composition but in bonded characteristics due to a slight

variation in the manufacturing process and for some reason, you see a

difference because your body is put together differently than mine or someone

else’s. Strange but alas, true.

The Revia I obtained from www.medsmex.com is from Bristol Myers Squibb.It is made by them in New York and distributed by them in Mexico.The Box is written in Spanish as are the directions etc.

I don't know how others are measuring the effectiveness of their Revia or LDN, but I can tell you that this batch packs a wallop.My first few nights on 4.5 mg sent me through the roof, and the following mornings I had anxiety attacks and the "wet dog shakes".I had to back down to 3 mg for a week.

Are you the one that was drinking Coffee? Did you ever stop the

caffeine and see how went on 4.5mgs? Yes, I think there is something

different about the medsmex Revia and I want this Revia from now one.

I'm just glad I tried the medsmex Revia to begin with or I would have

been disappointed and not got the great results I have.
