Xanax Ingredients

I've found that all of the legitimate ones are the same strength, however; since the generics use different inactive ingredients, and possibly different formulations of the active ingredient-alprazolam being a drug that tolerance develops quickly-even the smallest difference in formula can make ones "seem" to work better or "stronger." I usually try to switch pharmacies as much as possible, though in WA state you are only allowed to switch once on a 5 refill script ## Alprazolam and "can make ones "seem" to work better or "stronger."? Why would switching Pharmacies once during a script allowed in most States help you with your quest for stronger Xanax? What are the "Legitimate" companies you speak of? Who are the illegitimate ones and why ...

The yellow bars that have R039 are generics the way you can tell if any generic Xanax are real is by the number and when you put it in your mouth you get a bad taste right away if you don't taste nothing then they are fake or cut down with something and for the white ones as well they have to have a G 3722 and the actual Xanax will have Xanax on it with a 2 on the back but to test every Xanax you put them in your mouth and get a bad taste right away and won't dissolve that fast ## Thanks for the heads up ace! I just wanted to add for anyone who may think they got a fake G 3722 bar, is that the "G" on the fake one's have recently been reported to appear "rounded off" instead of being edgy like a stop sign on the real bars. Additionally, the approximate size of...

What is in a Xanax green bar with R 309? It seems to be a lot stronger than anything I have taken. Dizzy is the way to best describe how I feel. ## Hi Mindy, Did you get your Rx filled by a licensed pharmacy or know where the bar might've originated from? I'm only curious because legitimate generic Alprazolam bars with an imprint of R 309 are depicted by their manufacturer (Actavis) as being "yellow", not green in color. This makes me a little suspicious of the pill being a counterfeit (with an unknown amount of medication or who knows what else)- To be fair, I do understand that drug companies might have minor inconsistencies among different batches... But if you could add some details as to how you came about it, I think that may be helpful to other readers. For verifi...

Can anyone tell me the amount of the INACTIVE ingredients to the 2mg gg 249 alprazolam bar please? Lookin to know about each ingredient, there are 6 inactive. I want to know how much of each 6 different ingredients goes into one bar with 2 mg of Alprazolam. I am wondering if I am allergic to any of them. ## No one can tell you. That would be considered proprietary information! ## Hi. I REALLY BADLY need your help. I am 54 and post menopausal. No HRT though. I am also bipolar 2 and manic most of the time because the psychiatrist can't find a mood stabilizer that works on me. And I take an SSRI For depression which makes me more manic.

I want to know if there's benzo in prozac ingredients ## Hi shay, I think you may have mistaken the drug class for an active/inactive ingredient. To answer your question, Prozac (Fluoxetine) is an antidepressant of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) class; not having any chemical relation to benzodiazepine medication like Xanax. If you'd like to know which inactive ingredients are present in your pill, please post back with a description of the tablet (i.e. shape, color, imprints, etc), and I can look that info up for you. I hope this helps!

Does anyone know the ingredients (with amount of each ingredient) and equipment needed to make alprazolam or xanax at home? ## No, it's really much more complicated than what you could do in your home and manufacturing such things, when you are not licensed to do so, is considered illegal in the U.S. This refers to both personal use, or for selling. Are there any other comments or questions?

Inactive Ingredients in this pill include: lactose, magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide, hypromellose, FD&C Blue No. 2 For information about this drug, please refer to the link below...

I jus filled my rx of xanax 1mg tabs. I got the green footballs with the S 902 on them. I don't know if it's just me, but these do not seem as strong as the blue footballs. Anyone else feel this way? ## The first time I got the green 1 mg pills I too thought the same thing and yes it is true the generic pills can vary + or- 20%. Ever since that time 20 years ago I have not noticed any difference in the alprazolam I have bought. I did notice that I only got 86 instead of 90 pills that first time with a commission for the Pharmacist I assume? ## If anyone taking these is wondering what other ingredients might be in them, posted below is a list of binders/fillers that help make up this S 902 tablet's composition: crospovidone + docusate sodium + lactose + magnesium stearate + m...

What are the ingredients in Buspar and do they have the same effect as Xanax? ## Buspar contains the active ingredient Buspirone, it used to treat anxiety disorders.

Is there a xanax and flexeril pill all in one ## No, there is nothing that contains both active ingredients in one medication that's available in the U.S. That type of combination is one that the FDA generally finds very questionable, due to the possible risks of taking both and they usually will not approve them. Learn more Xanax details here. Learn more Flexeril details here. Are you currently taking both medications?

The pill imprint IG 213 is in fact 50mgs of Sertraline. I actually had my script filled with those and thought they were "purple footballs" (Xanax), but I looked a little closer and noticed that the numbers weren't normal. So I looked them up online as well and found out to my dismay that Sertraline 50mg is a generic of Zoloft used for depression. Of course, it had me fooled. ## Correct, this tablet contains Sertraline 50 mg (NDC 31722-0213). Inactive Ingredients: - Dibasic Calcium Phosphate Dihydrate - Hydroxypropyl Cellulose - Cellulose, Microcrystalline - Magnesium Stearate - Sodium Starch Glycolate Type a Potato - Titanium Dioxide - Hypromellose 2910 (3 Mpa.s) - Hypromellose 2910 (6 Mpa.s) - Polyethylene Glycol 400 - Polysorbate 80 - Fd&c Blue No. 2 Ref: DailyMed

Those xanax that are dark blue speckles are the poorest quality xanax ever made - quite frankly they are so ineffective my friend has been having panic attacks agian every since her pharmacy switched to this dark blue brand with the blue v 2089 on them- she used to get the light blue gg"s that did there job - people we need to look into taking legal action for anyone else this has happend to this is bs that people are being deceived by this manufacturing company - they are obviously using less that quality ingredients to fake these ## There is no advantage for the company to short you on the Xanax contained in the pill. It is possible these pills are not up to specs. I think I got them once and they seemed fine. You can ask to purchase the name brand drug although your insurance mig...

I was Effexor XR for over 20 years until the insurance no longer paid for it and I went to generic. I don't feel that it does as well. The same with Xanac. Does anyone else have any experience with this? ## Hello, Mona! How are you? There can be fluctuations between name brand and generic medications. Under the Hatch-Waxman Act of 1984, they are allowed to differ, in the amount of the active ingredients, by as much as plus or minus 20%. The FDA considers that an acceptable therapeutic window, but when someone has been taking the name brand steadily for years, a sudden switch may cause problems, if they generics are a little low in them. What are the markings on the ones you're currently taking? This information would enable me to research them more for you. ## yes. I feel the sa...
