I'm sorry, but I can't really tell you anything just from those descriptions. Are there any markings on the tablets? That is what would enable use to check the information on them and what they contain. The shape and color doesn't actually mean anything.

There can be differences in generic medications, but as I said, I can't check any details, without having more information from you.

Yes, those are the correct tablets, both of them are manufactured by Greenstone Limited. They contain 1mg and 2mgs of extended release Alprazolam, respectively.

However, as I said, there can be difference in generic medications, so that may be what's causing your problem. Under U.S. federal law, they are actually allowed to differ from the name brand, in the amount of the active ingredient, by as much as plus or minus 20%.

This is considered an acceptable therapeutic window and, for many people, the variations do not cause any problems, however, if you are sensitive to it, then it can cause issues.

The main problems usually occur, because generic manufacturers do not have to measure against each other, just against the name brand, so there can be variations even just switching between generics, or generic dosages.

You aren't the first person we've had post who has switched dosages from the same manufacturer and found out that they didn't get the results they expected from the new dosage.

If the others worked better for you, then it only makes sense to go back to them. Your only other options is to really check with other pharmacies and see if they carry a tablet in the higher dosage that is made by a different company.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Honestly that was a crappy answer by suggesting the O/P should return to a lower dose because the 2 mg Greenstone pills were not strong enough than the 1 mg??? Unless they were fake, you must realize we are speaking to some people here who aren't well, and suggesting lowering members dose might not be prudent advice?
