What Is Xanax

I found a white long oval shaped pill, with 2 pieces on one side that say on one piece M, and on the other B4, and on the back of it, it has 3 pieces with 10 on each piece... Can you please tell me what it is because I found 10 of them in my sons room... ## This tablet contains 30mgs of Buspirone, the active ingredient in Buspar, which is most commonly used to treat anxiety. Side effects may include: nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and weight changes. Learn more: This isn't as dangerous or as habit forming as a Benzodiazepine, such as Xanax, but it still requires a prescription and is dangerous if used improperly. Are there any other comments or questions? ## No but thank you very much for getting back at me so fast..

Is xanax a narcotic? Or is it addictive ## Yes, Xanax is a controlled substance. It is a benzodiazepine, as well as ativan, valium and klonopin....and yes, they are highly addictive and for the people who do need them can become dependent on them as well. ## It is a Class IV addictive psychotropic medicine, very addictive! ## Xanax contains the active ingredient Alprazolam, and it is a Benzodiazepine. It is most commonly used to treat anxiety, and nervous disorders. Yes, it does carry the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, and mood changes. Is there anything I can help with?

XANAX COLORS AND MGS. - BLUE FOOTBALLS ARE 1MG =WHITE BARS ARE DIVIDED INTO 4 QUARTERS YELLOW BARS ARE DIVIDED INTO 4 QUARTERS THEESE ARE GENERIC BOTH YELLOW AND WHITE BARS ARE 2MLGS. PEACH COLOR FOOTBAL (not sure about the mgs.but they dont have the same effect as the blue footballs,so they i belive are a smaller dosage but ck w/ a dr first ALWAYS CK W/ A DR FIRST ## The colors don't actually mean anything, except in reference to the name brand, they did use a different color for each dosing of them. However, when it comes to the generic, Alprazolam, the color is entirely up to the whit and whim of the manufacturer and you can't rely on it to know the dosage. Learn more Alprazolam details here.

long rectangular shape tablet scored to make 3 seperate sections has the marking s 90 3 ## Located a match it's 2 mg of Alprazolam, which is short-acting drug of the benzodiazepine class used to treat moderate to severe anxiety disorders and panic attacks, and is used as an adjunctive treatment for anxiety associated with moderate depression.

i was just put on this medicine. 0.5 mg 3 times a day! i was used to takin xanax aand i jsut need to know if it is stronger or lighter cause it seems real strong!! ## For anyone else looking for such information, these two Benzodiazepines actually convert on a 1:1 ratio, so they are about the same in relation to strength and potency. You can learn more Xanax details here and you can learn more Clonazepam details here. Though, potency is relative, because medications can affect each person differently. Thus, Shanna may not have felt that the Xanax affected her the same as the Klonopin. It may have even been due to her just being used to the Xanax and not having taken Klonopin before. Are there any questions or comments? Is there anything I can help with?

The pill is oval, white in color. One side is blank, the other is scored in half with what looks like an S on one side and 106 on the other. I'm thinking it's a generic Xanax. Not sure of the strength though. ## An upside down Xanax? S 9 0 1 ## Is there a Xanax 901 S ? I have no idea and am looking to find out what this pill is. What strength it is also. Thank you!! ## Sure there is and its half a MG! ## Thanks Eddie!! So that would be a .50mg? Right? ## Yes that is what you have. How did you come by them? ## They were my mom's. She passed and they were in an unlabeled bottle. I thought they were Xanax but not sure of the strength.

My doctor wants to take me off Xanax. I have taken 1mg 3 times a day for 10 years. I take it for my anixity disorder as well as a relaxant for my skeletal muscle disorder. I need to know the names of medicines that will work the same as the xanax and that my body won't go into withdrawl. I've already lost my pain medicine last month now he wants to quit writing my Xanax. ## They say Klonopin and I did try two. Seems to work but almost the same stuff ## @con71446, There are a number of other benzo-class drugs on the market outside of Xanax. Some affect people differently than others based on their varying half-life's and sheer potency. But certain medications ending in "pam" (such as Diazepam, Lorazepam, Clonazepam/Klonopin as mentioned, etc..) seem to me like they wo...

Alprazolam

Alprazolam, sold under the brand name Xanax, among others, is a fast-acting tranquilizer of medium duration in the triazolobenzodiazepine (TBZD) class, which are benzodiazepines (BZDs) fused with a triazole ring.[6] It is most commonly used in short-term management of anxiety disorders, specifically panic disorder or generalized anxiety disorder (GAD).[7] Other uses include the treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea, together with other treatments.[5&...

I'm going to get my script soon, ive been taking the Actavis brand (Walgreens) and I asked if my next refill it could be the Greenstone g3722. My dosage I'd 2mg. I has the Mylan xr but would say the ACTAVIS is better. Should I stick to Actavis or go for Greenstone? I haven't tried Sandoz nor Dava. ## Greenstone use to be best as they we're bought out by parent co.of Xanax but they dilluated the formula a few years ago. I've been using the 2mg XR Actavis and their not too bad...so yes Actavis works. ## No one "diluted" the formula when a new company bought them. @Benzolover, you seem like you need some further understanding of what Xanax is and does, just a tad too excited about the drug. ## I'm very informed on this drug. But I just wanted to ask what was...

I found some 3 scored "xanax".On 1 side there is a 5 in each bar. On the other side the first square has a TV in it. 2Nd squre is blank and 3 square has either a 1003 or 100B (hard to tell). What are these...found in sons room. ## Hello, Sillycats! How are you? This is not Xanax, I just want to note that first, to avoid confusion in others that may read this post. That said, it contains 15mgs of Buspirone, which is used to treat anxiety and though it is in a different class of medications, many people do think it's similar to Xanax, but it's not a benzodiazepine. Is there anything else I can help with?

light green scored, no imprint oval/ rectangular shaped, supposed to be a Xxanax from another country....found several in teenagers room and was told this information. I have looked and searched with no avail. I have some of the light green pills for anti - diarrheal and these are different. any help out there ?? ## If there are no markings, then it may be difficult to determine exactly what they are. Prescription tablets in the U.S. are required to have unique imprints to enable their identification, but that does not apply to over the counter products, or medications from other countries. Learn more Xanax details here. Who told you there were a foreign Xanax? And if they are, what country are they supposed to be from? ## no someone is fooling report this to authorities it is a fake th...

I need a doc in st Louis who are able to prescribe Xanax i have terrible anxiety ## Hello, Moemoe! How are you? If you require such a medication on a long-term ongoing basis, you'll need to see a specialist, a general practice physician won't be able to prescribe it for you, due to the new regulations set forth by the DEA last year. The FDA lists Xanax as being a benzodiazepine that's most commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. It carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Thus, you'll need to see a psychiatrist. Do you currently have a PCP that might be able to refer you to someone? If so, that might be the quickest and easiest way to find the help you need. Can anyone recomm...

I have a football shaped Xanax with pml 1 on them. It is also a lavender colored and I think there's speckles on it. What mg are they? ## I've only found a little information on these, so I cannot guarantee it's correct, but from the details my search turned up, these are from Thailand. They are sold under the brand name Pharmax, the manufacturer is Pharmaland, which explains the PML logo and the number corresponds to the dosage. Thus PML 1 contains 1mg of Alprazolam. Learn more Pharmax details here. Where were they found/obtained? ## xanax should never have specs if they do please never take them and they are not from thailand they are actually coming via thailand from china ## Qualitest makes all kinds of speckled pills.

They don't seem to be working at all. I am on 1mg three times a day. It was only 1.04 for 90, which I thought was great, but now I know why.

it is a long white caplet with a line down the middle ## Sorry, that doesn't tell us anything. Xanax is available in both name brand and generics. There are many generic manufacturers and each one of them will make a pill that looks different. There are no rules saying that pills with the same ingredient have to look the same! The size, color, shape and imprint will all vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. The only relevant regulations from the FDA state that they must have unique imprints for identification purposes, but these will even differ by manufacturer and strength of the med. If you wish to know if your pill is Xanax or a generic form, you will have to post the imprint that is on the pill, I can then look it up for you and let you know. ## Upjohn 55 Peach oblong ## light...

Are Xanax tablets chalky and do they have a taste? ## Does xanax taste chalky at all because I got dispensed some bars that say xanax on one side and a 2 on the other side and they look perfect but do not have that bitter taste that I am used to? Does anyone have any advice on this? ## If it doesn't taste bitter there is no possibility it's real. If you can taste chalk or any other flavor it should be pretty clear you do not have genuine Alprazolam. ## Alprazolam or Xanax the name brand comes in different strengths, The 0.2 is usually white.

I have white supposedly 3mg xanax for sale on the internet 3 on them and triangle shaped are they real? ## In the U.S. there is a triangular shaped one on the market that has an X on one side and a 3 on the other, it is the time released Xanax. If it is from a foreign source, I can't really say, because they are not required to log their imprints, like those available in the U.S. are. Do you know if there are any imprints on the tablet?

Doctor is wiening me off Alprazolam. My biggest concern is sleeping. Is there another medicine that is not in the bens. class that will work for sleeping? ## Try Trazadone. There are many other medicines that cause sleepiness. Even OTC medicine and herbal medicine could possibly help you. Xanax is not a sleeping pill ## @Jim, Here are just a few options (out of many) that may be worth looking into for a sleep-aid: 1) Ashwagandha root - studies suggest that a dosage of 100-200mg/kg is reported to be similar in potency to 500mcg diazepam in reducing sleep latency & improving sleep quality in mice. 2) Melatonin 3) Valerian root 4) Magnesium However, it would probably be best to discuss these and other options with your doctor until you're completely off xanax, that way you eliminat...
