Hi, it was VOLUNTARILY recalled from BMS in the USA only because 8 Generic Companies make it, which the Serzone is called NEFAZODONE - It works the same, it is great for Anxiety and Sleep Related insomnia, and does not make you drowsy like Trazodone, I PROMISE you in the USA Generic Serzone called ---> Nefazodone is on the shelves, and NOT Banned, the FDA feels it can be managed with Doctors knowing of Liver risk, which is very remote. I am Glad, I almost felt suicidal fearing all summer they were going to ban it in the USA, thank goodness they did not, I just called BMS yesterday, and they said it is available as NEFAZODONE the same thing as the Serzone. A very good med for me. They also said there have been no liver Deaths since Dec. 2001 when the Black Box warning came out and people getting liver blood tests.
I worked hard to beg them not to ban it, I think some others did on here also, if I am on this for life, I want it available to me.
Sincerely - Tony C.
