Alprazolam Forums (Page 8)

Have been struggling badly with GAD and my doctor has just prescribed me a 0.5mg dose a day. I'm just worried it is going to affect me at work and make me pick up weight. My previous contraceptive aided in my weight gain and I cannot afford to pick up more. It will only make me feel worse. I basically just want to know if it will be okay to take for a while until I feel better? ## Hello, Sarah! How are you? This medication is listed as containing the active ingredient Alprazolam, which is a benzodiazepine that's most commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. However, no it doesn't usually cause weight gain. But it does carry the risk of being habit forming and the FDA lists that it could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Is...

NDC code: 00904-5860 The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, irritability, and headache.

What would happen if the pill were cut in half or quartered and only a half were taken? ## Hello, Terry! How are you? This tablet is manufactured by Aurobindo Pharma and they list it as containing 1mg of Alprazolam in an extended release formulation. You should never cut, crush or break a time released tablet, doing say could result in your getting too much of the medication, at once, and could result in overdose. The FDA classifies this medication as a benzodiazepine, so it 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? ## Well I tried to swallow 2 of them and 4-5 hours later it came out in my stool and looked like 2 green peas. So I'm pretty worried about that

Is this company on the up & up?.I've just had a prescription filled for their brand of 0.5 alprazolam & it is not helping my panic attacks like my previous prescriptions in the past. I've had both sandoz & greenstone over the years that worked fine. But I am not getting relief from these and have even taken 2 instead of my usual dose of 1 & am still no relief ## What are the markings on the ones you have received from your pharmacy? I apologize, but I am having difficulty finding details, so if you can post back with this information, it would make it much easier to research this for you.

I've been told my Alprazolam 2mg aren't as good as other Xanax.. Someone told me they are the weakest 2mg xanax out there. Is this bs? He said the better one has XANAX on one side and what I have is s***. And the green and yellow ones are the better ones (I have a white rectangular one with a v on one side and 2090 on the other side just so it's clear). Is this true or is he just being an A**hole? If someone could please help me out I really would appreciate it. ## Hello, Christie! How are you? It is a common misconception that the name brand is always better than a generic. That is not the case. The tablets you have are manufactured by Qualitest Pharmaceuticals and they list them as containing 2mgs of Alprazolam. It has had to meet the same efficacy and quality tests as all...

does alprazolom 2 mg white bar comes 1 milligram in white bar ## white 2mg xanax bar,one side has 2090 w/4 hatch marks/other side has 2 hatch marks on each end inthe middle is a Weird V which i believe is the company? ## I have a pill thats a long white bar(rectangular shape) with four sections on one side and 2090 on it and three sections on the other side with a V on that side, what is this? ## The weird looking V on the other side is the trademark for that specific brand of generic in this case, it's qualitest. That's a good generic. The Qualitest company recently merged with the Endo company, the people who make Percocet and their generic brand, Endocet. Endocet is identical to Percocet except for the imprints on it. Same ingredients and same quality. So you can expect if a ...

I was told that narcotics that were yellow had extra chemicals in them.especially the yellow alprazolam bars compared to the white 2 mg. ones ## narcotics are opiates their derivatives or synthetic opiates. the prefix narc means to sleep. ever heard of narcolepsy? i think the yellow bars may be 3 mg. alprazolam. ## Xanax is only pricribed in 0.25mg(white), .50mf(peach), 1mg(blue) and 2mg (white). 2 mg are scored into 4 pieces if u need to break it b4 u take it. The smaller doses are scores in half. ## Wrong they make green footballs too that are 1mg and yellow footballs that are .5 and yellow bars are 2mg ## What are the markings on the pills in question?

I want full info about Restyl 0.5 mg and most importantly what harmful effects this tablet may cause? ## Restyl contains the active ingredient Alprazolam, which is a Benzodiazepine that's commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders.

Now I'm just curious as to - 1: are they are real? 2: are they extended release or not? 3: why is there no information about them on the web? 4 I have been taking them, but something's lacking, that's why I'm curious about the extended release and if it is how would we know? But the lack of info on them is odd, I don't want to be taking something dodgy. Lyka labs is the logo, but said it's made by modi life care in Mumbai, down a bit on the blister. Anyway I've been searching all day, it's more the curiosity that's getting to me now. ## I found plenty of information over at Google on these ## No, I think you might have found a few sites that sell them, but they have no name (e.g. tranax-1), just seems odd, no box, no mention of them on lyka labs websi...

0,25 mg Alzam with 2 glasses of wine on tonight's BA flight to London to be able to sleep a couple of hours. Good or Bad? ## Bad! I'm glad nothing happened to you, but you did put yourself at risk. Both the Alprazolam in the Alzam and the alcohol can cause depression of the central nervous system, which may cause lowered rate of breathing, pulse and blood pressure and that could lead to heart or respiratory arrest. Are there any other questions or comments? ## My friend is on the same drug and she wants to find out if she can have a child while taking it? ## I'm on Cotareg for HBP, Nuzak, Dopaquel and Adco alzam for anxiety and depression. Only on weekends I drink beer or ciders. Could that worsen my condition? I have to de-stress.
