How to Spot Fake Diazepam (Valium) Pills

The world is changing… it’s moving online, and healthcare is in the cross hairs of the technological takeover. 

More people are buying medicine online. Whilst companies such as Meds for Less are providing modern, convenient and accessible healthcare, there are other unscrupulous companies selling medicines which are counterfeit or unlicenced in the UK.

Where are these counterfeits coming from?

Counterfeit medicines are circulating in large numbers in the UK. They can originate from a variety of sources, both domestic and international. In some cases, counterfeit tablets may be manufactured in illegal labs within the UK, often using inferior or dangerous ingredients that can be harmful to consumers.

However, many counterfeit tablets are also imported from other countries, particularly those with less stringent regulatory systems or enforcement measures. For example, counterfeit sleeping tablets are produced in countries like India or China before being smuggled into the UK through various channels.

However, at Meds for Less, we want to ensure people have a reputable website to buy diazepam online uk.

1. The Brand In the UK, Diazepam being dispensed from a legitimate pharmacy, will come from one of the ‘pharma giants.’ A brand or company you’ll most likely have encountered at some-point-or-another. Two large manufacturers of Diazepam in the UK are Accord Healthcare and Crescent Pharmaceuticals, but there are several other brands circulating.

Both Accord Diazepam and Crescent Diazepam have “Marketing Authorisation” in the UK, or colloquially, they’re both ‘licenced’ in the UK. Medicines licenced by the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) are deemed quality, safe and effective.

2. The Packaging You’ve been looking to buy diazepam online UK… it’s arrived, but no box. Just blister packaging. This may indicate your diazepam is unlicenced or counterfeit. Quite often, unlicenced medicine are being shipped from China or India, dropping the boxes saves on international shipping costs.

Additionally, medicines which have been dispensed by a pharmacy in the UK legally require a dispensing label is attached to the box. Dispensing labels are small sticky label containing the dispensing pharmacy’s details.

If your medicine arrives without a dispensing label, it does not mean it is counterfeit. Your medicine may have been dispensed abroad or alternatively your medicine may be genuine, but has come from the black market.

3. The Tablet Trying to assess the legitimacy of a tablet based purely on visual assessments is nearly impossible. Counterfeiters can replicate the appearance of legitimate tablets with extreme accuracy. As a general rule of thumb, Diazepam in the UK is usually circular or oval and typically comes in white or pale blue.

4. The Dosage Diazepam is only licenced for sale in the UK in the following dosages:

• • Buy Diazepam 10mg
  • Buy Diazepam 5mg
  • Buy Diazepam 2mg

If your diazepam tablets are a different dosage, they’re likely counterfeit or unlicensed.

What Constitutes a Fake Drug? 

Before we go any further, please note that Diazepam is the name of the active ingredient. When people buy diazepam online uk, they may buy a branded version such as Valium or Diastat. More likely, however, they’ll receive a generic version branded simply as ‘Diazepam’, it’s active ingredient. 

In the UK, the MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency) is responsible for helping to protect public health from medicines that pose a threat. Unfortunately, there are many counterfeiting operations in which people put our health at risk. 

The Bottom Line

Diazepam is one of the most commonly prescribed medications in the UK. When you buy diazepam online UK, the best way to ensure genuine tablets is to buy from a reputable source such as Meds for Less.
