Any pharmacists on here?

[ED209]

Are there any pharmacists on here that can confirm 100% to me that Bensedin is a brand of drug that is prescribed in the UK or not?

I don’t think it is but a member of the local constabulary claims it’s widely “used” in the uk..

Thanks, I had read that text, it appears on loads of sites. It mentions fake tablets but doesn’t confirm if the real ones are legitimately available

Pharmacist here.

Bensedin is a brand of diazepam however diazepam is prescribed generically in the UK and there should be no branded products on prescription. This brand doesn't have a current license in the UK.

If you are finding this on the streets it is illegally imported or bought off the internet and no NHS prescription is involved
