Anyone have any further information on Biotran? My order was placed in February -- I think, it's been so long -- and still nothing here. Any good alternatives?

I have receive 1/2 of a order this month on the 6th....Nothing since. They are still showing out of stock as they have since Jan. My order was from Jan. that I received. I have pretty much given up until I see the orange box again. Search under the med you are looking for and you should find some alternatives but prices are higher if you are looking for perds that is.

Same here. It's been at least 2 months. Nothing!

going on 4 months for me~~on a PRE-PAID order!!!

Needless to say, I'm STEAMED as crabs at a clambake!!

Bio should be taking better care of his longterm, bigger customers!!! I thought that was the POINT of going thru the hassle & risk of changing from a "pay after receive & likee" to a larger, phone call ahead PRE-paid order !!

He REALLY messed my provisions up BIGTIME & I am NOT a happy bio-camper

shoulda known he was just a fickle, $$$-grubbing sweet-talker!!

Took my business (& my LOST $$) elsewhere MONTHS ago when I could SMELL the way the tide was turning & he became ever more evasive!! BIO BITES!!

I am sorry to hear that all of you are having
such problems with Biotran. That is so wrong on his
part! Maybe he will come to the board and see how his
good paying customers feel about his service lately.

I have never ordered from him, but I decided I would like
to try a Med that he offered. So I contacted him the way that his website says to do, and his answer to me was rude and ridiculous. He told me that the only way he would sell me
anything was if I provided the name and address of somebody that orders from him. I was confused to say the least! What makes him think somebody would want to give out their personal
information like that?! Needless to say I won't be ordering
from him. He seems like a Jerk, and I don't want or need that
kind of treatment in my life. Goodness knows there is enough
negativity while trying to obtain much needed medication.

Yes they are a bunch of tools. They banned me from receiving any meds.

Thing is, I'm not sure why. They profess that they "don't ban lightly". All I can figure is I didn't pay promptly for my initial sample; I procrastinated for three months then sent in the $5 for the codes. My next order for 20 never showed, but I paid anyway and placed another order for 60 in February.

Nothing ever showed up and their site always reported out of stock for codes and perds, so I thought, what have I got to lose, so I requested a sample of their sleep meds. A week later they returned my e-mail with "no pills for you" lol.

I've never been anything but an excessively polite Canadian with them but they ended up treating me like a criminal, and THEY owe ME s $10 refund.

They did say I could call to discuss my situation; whadda ya think, should I? Might be entertaining, I would report back.

I would strongly advise anyone not to count on Biotran as their only source of pain medication. indianmeds4u has been good for me; they're on the international list. I feel for all of you who have gone through pain because of Biotran's unreliability.

Received a Jan. 6th order on May 1st. It seems that Biotran is still catching up on the backlog from the shortage.Good Luck Everyone.... Keep Looking in the MailBox

Received the second part of my order. They are finnally caught up on my orders. Ordered end of Jan....received first half 3/6 and second half 4/1. Perds. I was told to email when I have received my meds and they will let me know what to do if they are still showing out of stock. I will update further if ya'll want me to.

I'm wondering if I should send payment for an order of perds received last month. Last I was told by him, I should wait until he shows "in stock" before sending payment. But I've read many posts stating people are paying as soon as they receive.

I don't want to make him mad by
1. Re-ordering too soon
2. Not paying soon enough
3. Emailing too many times

Any thoughts?

Have you been paying for pain meds, or waiting for the orange light?

I would pay for them when I got them. He may not have any in stock when he gets your order but that will get you in line to receive as he gets stock. I am being to believe that he will be in a catch up basis for the rest of this year, maybe forever.

I got my sleeping meds In a week. I asked about the pain meds and was told to not order until they they have stock. It might not be that they have bad service they just might not be out of stock. If they were all about money I think they would not have such low prices.

They're all in it primarily for the money, why else take the risk. Some are more pleasant to deal with than others, that's all. I like relatively honest communication, not cryptic instructions that always keep one guessing.

I am still waiting on an order from Feb. Has anyone been receiving in the past week? If so perds or codesian?

I received an E-mail from Wayne at Biotran today. He said that My order I mailed at the end January has NOT shipped Yet, but that it would ship sometime in the next 21 days. that was for Perds.

jfrich:

Sounds like the same response I got from "Wayne". My order sent at the end of March should be received by the 1st of June, maybe earlier or later... per the email.

You can't rely on the in stock/out of stock indication on the website. I've received plenty of times when it showed out of stock for perds.

As far as I can tell, perds and codeisan are becoming hard to come by in the OP market. I made the mistake of waiting until Biotran got its act in order because I did get my order in mid-February. However, the next order is taking longer and other OP's are now out of the same meds and similarly unable restock. I think there is one still that lists it, can't remember the name but it's only because the price is quite extravagant. I don't know what's going on but I'm afraid that whatever channels the OP's were using for these two particular drugs has been shut to them.

Would anyone who has received both codeisan and perduretas remember what manufacturer produces them? Are they the same? I'm trying to figure out what is going on, but I realize asking biotran is about as productive as asking a psychic. They apparently blame the situation on a fire, but can that really be it? Wouldn't something like that be verifiable?

If you read site,, there no mention fire or they stop make it! Still make it but law have change in Espana! Make it hard get now! He no longer can get from his friend at the warehouse and hard to get from pharmacy now! only small amount at time! He not tell me this ,, I find out for self!

Here link to company make Codeisan:
http://www.belmac.com/p_otros.html
click codeisan and pop up show that tablet & liquid still make! it easy to get but world supply opium run low each year end and only go to people in Espana first! Hope this help!

Well, that kind of sucks. Thanks for the information, I tried to figure things out on my own also, but my spanish is not very good.

The way things are going with the pain meds, by the time they are back up to speed it will be holiday time again.

It's hard to complain being that I'm not losing money on the deal, but it's disappointing that not so long ago biotran was like clockwork with the shipments.

It would be good if someone posted some information with some hope that things will eventualy get on track.

Nothing in My mail box today! Anyone else have any luck?
jfrich

Just want to let everyone know that I received My white envelope from Biotran today. I hope the rest who are waiting will also see one this week.

jfrich:

It was Perds. The order was mailed last week in January.

jfrich

Wow, over 3 months of waiting? I have no doubt that biotran would honor their word, it just sucks the market to get them is so difficult now for them.

I've been waiting for what feels like forever! I'm long since out of pain meds and have been getting by on what I can scrounge or pull together OTC. If anyone has an reliable sources that you'd like to share, please feel free to PM me. I'm getting desperate!!! Thank you!!

Yes,
Bann Him like I did,
It didn't take long for me to find a replacement if needed.

If He lost all of his customers, He would be eating crow.
Instead of cocking the walk.
I have NEVER been treated so rude by anyone that was taking my money.
He got it twice.
The first time seemed OK, second time I get sleep meds 3 months later,Not even what I ordered.
Bologna,
Its not worth it.
