From them I ordered the Baclofen dura Myra because that's the one that is what you get in the uk if you have a legit script
It's also one of the cheaper ones compared to liorosal
The 25mg tabs are about £27 but you have add in a few other bits and pieces and you had to pay with money transfer which from my bank cost me £25

If so that's not correct. I have a legit UK script and have had at least three brands over the years. Maybe if you have a regular pharmacy which you've only been using for a short time you've been lucky to get the same one every time (perhaps they carry a decent stock from their preferred distributor), but long term you're likely to get something different eventually in my experience (4 years).I don't come here much anymore but you can always mail me at rotunda 2000 at hotmail dot com (no spaces). Might be able to help with Bac emergencies

Not correct for you but as ppl know on here,everyone's experience with Baclofen is very wide ranging,no one really knows what the prescribing details are because it's not had any proper testing done.The way Baclofen gets us to stop drinking is very different for a lot of and no 2 ways seem to be the same iso I came on here for advice but now I see its suck it and see.J had a very bad experience changing over to a different brand.I was literally falling asleep at work and was violently sick a few times.I had to tell ppl at work it was good poisoning.It was like the brand of Bac I was taking want Bac and then the symptoms were like Bac poising.But other ppl haven't experienced that.Just because it worked for you taking any old Bac doesn't mean it would work for everyone.I was just sharing my experience,I could be wrong but I still couldn't nit share my experience because this is after all a help and advice forum,you on the other hand think your way us the only way because you gave many years under your belt

My only 'way' is 'don't spread false information on here' please (i.e. that only one generic is prescribed here in the UK when absolutely not true).
That is to no means lessen the problems some folk have had switching brands (I was one of them at one point) - but that's a different topic.Last edited by eight days a week; November 23, 2015, 02:05 PM.I don't come here much anymore but you can always mail me at rotunda 2000 at hotmail dot com (no spaces).

I've had 2 different generics in the past year on NHS scripts (officially for my back), current one is "TEVA", then there was a different one, name I can't recall. 8days is right - your chemist buys whatever brand is best value at the time, sometimes one drug company will undercut another by a few pence just to get the pharmacies buying their brand, hoping they'll stick with it. Some do, others hunt out best value for money each time they order - these are the pharmacists the NHS needs!!
Anyway, I came on here to update about my new pharmacy, which to my amazement delivered the goods in 5 DAYS, & that was regular delivery, not even the expensive EMS option. After I had ordered I looked for reviews (I know, wrong way round) & I was kicking myself when I found no positive reviews, but one opinion that the company was a scam. I felt like an idiot.
Now, bear in mind my good experience is n=1, so I'm not recommending it to you all. I may give it a go next time. It allows you to pay directly by credit card, none of the faffing with money orders that Inhouse now requires, no phone calls that River needs (I didn't look at paypal, that sounds like a possibility if you can do it by credit card.)
It's really helpful to have these threads about buying online, which is a tricky business at the best of times.

I suspect that the different experiences are exactly that. Baclofen does pretty odd and rather different things to different individuals I am beginning to realise. Let's keep that in mind rather than those differing experiences being a cause for disagreement and argument. And that's not aimed at any specific individual!

I'm a little concerned as I titrate up that I have enough to go down again if my supply suddenly dries up. I use InHouse and so far the two of the three orders I have placed have arrived with no problem. The third is hopefully on its way.
So - does River accept non-prescription orders (I can go there and check so don't trouble unless you know and can send a quick response.
And secondly are there other non-prescription pharmacies people know and feel have been reliable?

Yes. I've used River 6 times with no problem. They are advertisers here on this site. Many others use them successfully. They have great customer service and you can use your credit card. You do have to make a phone call to complete your order, but you still get the cheaper Internet price. The site is easy to use. It seems to me that many in the U.S. order through them while gold pharma seems more popular in the UK. I didn't do a poll or anything, just my impressionLast edited by Mom21961; November 28, 2015, 12:00 PM.

At the moment Goldpharma arnt showing any prescription drugs but when they do they can be ordered without a script,they just do a sort override.I emailed them and they said they are doing a site overhaul and at the moment they are unable to offer prescription drugs but they are hoping that will change....how true that is I'm not sure
