Alprazolam Overview
Alprazolam, available under the trade name Xanax, is a potent, short-acting benzodiazepine anxiolytic—a minor tranquilizer.[2] It is commonly used for the treatment of anxiety disorders, especially of panic disorder, but also in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) or social anxiety disorder.[3][4] In 2010 it was the 12th most prescribed medicine in the United States.[5] Alprazolam, like other benzodiazepines...

Farmapram 2mg from Mexico
Farmapram 2mg, filled a prescription at ABC Pharmacy in Nuevo Progreso. Can anyone provide information on them please? Are these the same as domestic US medications? ## From what I could gather, Farmapram 2mg is allegedly a form of Alprazolam 2mg from Mexico. I don't know if your pill has any markings, but another Farmapram 1mg tablet I came across with IFA imprinted on one side and scored on the other, was manufactured by Investigación Farmacéutica, Mexico. Unfortunately I haven't heard of this company before so I'm unable to offer a personal opinion on their legitimacy. However if there are no markings I would definitely be skeptical. ## Link below what bottle looks like.... farmapram 2mg packaging image ## Are they Legit or safe, probably. Are they legitimate to...

Alprazolam (almee 2) India
What does a 2mg amee-2 (alprazolam) look like? What color are they? ## They are a white and round pill. ## I just got alprazolam 2 but they are different. They are small round brownish pills. Has anyone else gotten these? ## Hi Jan (post #3), Depending on where you obtained your pills from, it seems to me that they could either be counterfeit or foreign. If they're anything like the one's from India, I've heard some people mention that you should be looking for a distinct "bitter" taste that is indicative of real alprazolam. Unfortunately without a marking though, only a lab analysis could truly verify its contents. Do your pills have an imprint of any kind to help determine who manufactured them? Or is there a box it came in from the distributor/pharmacy with more s...

White bar with Y on one side and 21 on the other
I came across these white xanax bars and they have a Y on one side and 21 on the other. Has anyone ever seen these before? ## These are manufactured by Aurobindo Pharma and they list them as containing 2mgs Alprazolam, which is a generic for Xanax. NDC code: 65862-0679 The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, and irritability. Inactive ingredients may include: Silicon Dioxide Starch, Corn Docusate Sodium Sodium Benzoate Lactose Monohydrate Magnesium Stearate Cellulose, Microcrystalline But they can vary depending on the manufacturing facility. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Are the ones with the y and 21 on them legit?I looked them up and couldn't find anything about them ...

Alprazolam Dava Xanax
I'm wondering if my new script of dava alprazolam is a quality generic? ## All generics available on the U.S. market have to fall within the same acceptable quality guidelines, which is being within plus or minus 20% of the amount of the active ingredient in the name brand. The only thing you can really do is try it and see how well it works for you, because some people react differently to those fluctuations, regardless of how small they are. Are there any other questions or comments? ## they are not the best generic but they're not the worst either....i never found anything wrong with them...they worked pretty good for my anxiety and didn't put me to sleep like some other brands... the best brand is greenstone, they are affiliated with pfizer who makes xanax. they are the ...

Greenstone Alprazolam 2 mil not working
So I have been on Greenstone Alprazolam for over 10 years through CVS. I always take them as prescribed. Never abused them. They always worked quickly and brought me down from any attack.. Out of the blue 3 months ago CVS doesn't carry them anymore. I tried the new brand they had (Dava), and they were awful!. Did nothing for my Panic Disorder. So Greenstone told me to go to a Ma and Pa Pharmacy, so I did and they ordered them. I was elated. So I get them and took it right away. I noticed they were chalky and were only slightly bitter and it took 45 mins to get any feeling.And the feeling I got was just a little sleepy and nothing else.. That is not how they usually are. Normally they would kick in less than 20 mins and would take that hot feeling I get when I panic away and replace ...

alprazolam dava xanax vs greenstone alprazolam
I have been taking 1 mg of alprazolam blue tablet with g3721 from greenstone. Yesterday I was given a green tablet from dava with s902 on them. Will I notice a difference? Thanks! ## Hello, Maci! How are you? In theory, they are the same and both contain Alprazolam, but there can be slight fluctuations in the amount of the active ingredient in generic medications, as permitted by the Hatch-Waxman Act of 1984, so you may notice a difference, but the only way to find out is by trying it. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I have to switch from xanax to alprazolam because my insurance company will not pay for it and it is ver...

Alprazolam 0.25 mg Manf. Pfizer, Sandoz, Greenstone, Apotex
I'm prescribed 0.25 mg of Alprazolam for MRI, CT as I have severe panic attacks. I've been getting Caraco brand. I didn't have any problems, and they worked for me. My pharmacy can no longer get that brand. I have multiple med. allergies, and chemically sensitive. After research on inactive ingredients I've narrowed it to brands: Greenstone, Apotex, Sandoz, Pfizer. Anybody have experience with these? Thanks. ## Hi. I have been on 1 mg Alprazolam for 28 years.

Best Generic Alprazolam (Xanax)
I have been getting the 2mg Greenstones the last few years and they work much better than the Actavis. Now i read that greenstones were changed back in early 2014. Is it people that take these to feel high or people who really need them for anxiety and nothing else? Regardless if they have been changed they're still much better Actavis and I have heard mixed results on Sandoz. Dava seems to be crap. Took it once (looks to be from Endo who bought out Qualitest). Any opinions on the current state of the generic xanax manufactures? And lastly, no insurance company will give me the name brand. It's generic or nothing. ## Alprazolam is a psychotropic mind altering drug and no matter where you get them legally you might find a slight difference between brands. When we start to analyze...

I Am Taking Alprazolam 0 25 Mg At Bedtime. How Long Can I Take It daily to Be On The Safe Side
Once in a while (when I am mentally diturbed) I take Alprazolam 0.25 m (Restyl). Is it safe to take it daily if I want. Or cosecutively how many days I can take it. ## There is no real set time frame that I can give you, Alprazolam is a Benzodiazepine and it can be habit forming, but the amount and the time it takes for that to happen can vary from person to person. Learn more Alprazolam details here. I was on a similarly low dose of Ativan and I had problems with it if I just take it for a few days in a row, I'd get super irritably the day I stopped taking it and I was also only taking it once a day. However, on the obverse, I have a friend that can take very high doses of any of them for months in a row and then he can stop abruptly, with no ill effects or withdrawal at all, so th...

greenstone alprazolam 25 isn t it better than caraco s
I have been taking Greenstone Alprazolam .25 for a long time. Once they gave me Dava and that was awful. Now they gave me Caraco, and I am afraid to start it. I know Greenstone is Classified as A. How is Caraco classified? ## I'm not sure what you're referring to as the classifications. When they are manufactured to the standards as set by the FDA, all generics are considered equal and to be of top quality, so there is no rating system that's used for them. There can be some slight fluctuations in the amount of the active ingredient, so a little change could be what's causing your problem, but your body will usually adjust in a week or so, since the different isn't significant. Or you could have a problem with some of the inactive ingredients, because they do cause i...
