Gabapentin R 636

Updated

I'm just wondering the difference between the two, because when I was prescribed them I was given the 636 green ones, they worked fine for me no more headaches nothing, now they have given me the g31s and I'm sick again headaches, dizziness, you name it. And all the pharmacy says it's a different company that makes them but they are still the same pill.. No they are not.. I'm just tried of all this and don't know what to do...

Yes you are so correct! The green actavis now teva tablets are the only efficient generics for gaba 600. Actavis period. The g 31 are made by glenmark out of the country and the actavis teva green r636 are the only green and working tablets. The rest are generic junk. I searched a full day before finding them for fill and they are always way low on stock. Call a walmart or pharmacy in a wealthy part of your town and they should have these green tablets available or willing to find em for you. The problem is that they are extremely low on stock with the green actavis by teva so u need to find a place that has yet to run out of their stock. That is how I found mine. I was on the 400 gaba capsules by actavis and was very comfortable with them. I've tried the sci gem ones and cipla ones and wow the green activas are so smooth compared to all others and its the only green tablet; the rest are white garbage that make u sick, imo at least. Hope u find them. Lmk if u need help locating the green actavis by teva r636 tablets and I will help. Just a matter of finding the right pharmacy who still has them in stock. Honestly I never use walmart or cvs or walgreens or kroger; too big of mainstream pharmas that don't care about their patients, but was able to find some at a walmart, but only one walmart after calling 10 to see if they had em and only the walmart in one of my cities most wealthiest towns had them. God bless. Best of luck. Get back on actavis teva green tablet and off the g 31 india made glenmarks or any white tablets for that matter other than the green actavis tevas or the white greenstone llc 600mg ones. Only two good generics. Most are made out of country and yes all others besides the green tablet and the white greenstone ones will cause me debilitating headaches and stomach issues. Go find your greens! Best of luck. If u need help lmk.

Both contain 600mgs of Gabapentin.

R636 NDC: 00228-2636

Oblong white tablet R 636

Inactive ingredients may include:

Calcium Stearate
Crospovidone
Hydroxypropyl Cellulose
Polyethylene Glycols
Titanium Dioxide
Ferric Oxide Yellow
Fd&c Blue No. 2
Hypromelloses

G 31 NDC: 68462-0126

Oblong white tablet G 31

Inactive ingredients may include:

Starch, Corn
Copovidone K25-31
Poloxamer 407
Magnesium Stearate
Polyethylene Glycols
Hypromelloses
Titanium Dioxide
Talc
Polysorbate 80
Water

However, not all generics work for everyone that tries them, plus the Hatch Waxman Act of 1984 permits generics to differ from the name brands in the amount of the active ingredients by as much as plus, or minus 20%.

Thus, it is conceivable that there is some slight variation that's causing one to not work as well for you.

It has also recently been thought that inactive ingredients are not always as inactive as claimed, as you can read in this article.

How are you doing, now?
