I wanna know if I took these buspirone 15mg if it would feel the same as xanax? I have really bad anxiety and came across these? ## Hello, Nick! How are you? No, it does not work, nor affect you the same as Xanax. Buspirone must be taken for several weeks to a month, in order for it to reach its full level of efficacy in your body, to see if it will help you, or not. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and irritability. Alternatively, Xanax, can be taken, as needed, and will have some immediate effect to relieve anxiety. Is there anything else I can help with? ## No, this pill is not in the benzo family. It's more like Prozac, Zoloft or something like that. It's not narcotic if that's what your needing. Might ma...

Need to find out what it is. Was told it was xanax but never seen one like it before. ## Hi mendee, Just out of curiosity, what shape is this pill you're describing? This seems to be the last piece of information I'd need to pursue a more thorough search. Does the pill look anything like these two photos?: Image #1 Image #2 - Clobazam 20mg (manufactured by Lundbeck) Hope this helps!

I am using tab tancodep for ten days since then constipation problem developed ## It is rare, but it has been known to cause in some people that take it, according to NIH reports. They also warn that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, and irritability. Has there been any change? Are you on any other medications? What dosage do you take?

Iam using 2yrs or 3yrs using lonazep tablet,I like discondinue the table,pls help me ## Suddenly stopping this tablet could create the risk of seizures, as well as rebound anxiety, dizziness, fever, diarrhea, and insomnia. Thus, it is best to do a very slow and gradual taper. What dosage are you currently taking and how often do you take it? Are you on any other medications?

Can someone go immediately from 2mg of Ativan four times a day to Klonopin 3 times a day without horrible withdrawal? ## What is the dosage of Klonopin that has been prescribed? It is stronger than Ativan and someone would need 4mgs of it to be equal to the 8mgs of Ativan. The FDA classifies these medications as benzodiazepines. They carry 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 take 6 mg Ativan a day , have done for years also 10mg Lexapro to combat depression , my question is I feel bad now its not the Ativan they just make me tired which is a great anxiety killer , the Lexapro may be the problem , I use it has a safety net against depression , sort of kill it befor...

I take gabapentin (Gralise) max dose daily for nerve pain. I get breakthrough pain at night. I have taken A muscle relaxer and hydroxyzine and seems to help some with the nerve pain. Any clues about why as well as if hydroxyzine would work alone for the nerve pain? ## It has some sedative like effects, which is why it is often used for anxiety, so it can cause some relaxation/sedation. That might be why it helps. The FDA lists its other typical side effects as possibly including dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth, and headache. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hello. I also take Gabapentin for Nerve pain and I take Hydroxyzine HCL 25mg at bedtime for sleep issues and anxiety. I take the Gabapentin at 8pm and the Hydroxyzine at 11pm. I take one and a half Hydroxyzine. I have noti...

My boyfriend was prescribed to take (2) 25 mg tabs of hydroxyzine at night but it doesn't work that well and when he takes (1) of my 50 mg tabs it's more effective and works better. Does the higher dosage of the same medication absorb differently or quicker than the lower dosage? ## No, there should not be any significant difference. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, hypotension, and dehydration. What issues is he experiencing that makes him feel that taking 2 of the 25mg tablets isn't working as well? Has he consulted his doctor about prescribing the 50mg dose? ## He was originally prescribed it when he had hives last year and i think he started taking 2 because 1 tab wasnt really working for the i...

I took 1 mg of Clonazepam twice a day for about 3-4 days and have to pass a urine test on Wednesday. I took my last pill last Thursday afternoon. Will I pass the test? ## Hi Sherry, I believe the first post in the thread linked below can answer your question (regarding how long it stays in you urine): /Discuss/how-long-does-it-take-for-clonazepam-to-leave-your-system-198986.htm To get a bit more precise though, I do believe that you'll pass a urine test, given the window of time you allowed yourself. I'd also be interested in knowing how the test goes if you can post back afterwards! ## i have been taking clonazepam 0.5mg for two weeks, twice a day. will it detect in an urine test for employment. ## I am 25 years old first time taking kilonopin and it is .5mg I have a doctors ap...

Can a patient suffer from severe anxiety when they withdrawal from Levera? My dose was 500 mg Levera in the morning and evening. Doctor tapered me down to 200 mg once a day and then stopped completely. I am now having episodes of fear and severe anxiety. ## Yes, that can be a normal side effect, you may also experience nausea, dizziness, and rebound seizures, according to FDA reports. How long ago did you stop taking it? Has there been any change? Are you on any other medications?

I have a small orange diazepam tablet that has a symbol on one side and 029 on the other. What milligram is it - 5mg? ## This tablet is manufactured by Actavis and they list it as containing 0.5mgs of Alprazolam, which is a generic for Xanax. 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. Is there anything else I can help with?

I just took a hair folical test for cps and it said there Was methamphetamines in my system. I do not use methamphetamines. Is there anyway somebody could tell me how this could happen? ## Let me add two more medications risperdal and zyprexa ## I have NEVER did Methamphetamines a day in my life. Failed a hair follicles drug screen for 8000 Mfs of Methamphetamines. Could energy drinks be the cause of this?

Is there anything you can take to flush it out before a drug screening? How long does it take ## i have been taking loratabs for about 3yrs.now.is there an over the counter drug or something from a health food store to help with withdrawals.i really want to stop taking them.thank you,linda ## if you can get dr to write you xanax they help DT s till u detox ## OTC medications that people sometimes use are Dramamine, Benadryl and Imodium, which can help with some of the withdrawl effects, however, you should really do this under your doctor's supervision. ## How long does it take for lortab to get out of your system? ## That`s terrible advice!! Telling someone to try to get xanax to detox from lortab....yeah just switch from one addictive substance to an equally or more addictive one....

PLEASE HELP!!!! I showed positive for K2, Spice whatever its called now, but have been sober since January and never even tried that stuff. I take many prescribed narcotics (xanax, adderol, lyrica ect.) Why am I positive? Please help as my children are at stake with cps and I can't lose my babies over something that I DID NOT do. ## I take lami tal and I have NEVER messed with k2 I also take klonpin. Can either of these show up as a false positive on a urine drug screen ## I take lamictal and I have NEVER messed with k2 I also take klonpin and oxycodone . Can either of these show up as a false positive on a urine drug screen

can a urine test tell the difference between xanax and lorazapam? ## nope unless they send it off for specific testing to make sure you're only taking what ur suppose to. they call that a GCMS at the methadone clinic I go to. if they don't do th st then s normal 10 panel will shoe just benzodiazepines ## If the urine test is positive for Benzodiazepine, then the must send it for confirmation, at the confirmation stage, it will be looking for the metabolites of Alprazolam. So, that is very expensive. A dipstick test cannot tell the difference.

I had asked for a blood test on all drugs in my system the clonazepam did not show. am i getting a sugar pill. ## Well was the medication prescribed or did u buy off streets? And what does the pill your taking look like? We can't tell if it's something else without a discription. Also need to know how long after taking the Klonipin did u receive the drug test? If it was more than a few days it could be out of your system. ## the one pill of clonazapam 1 mg. taken is light greenand has a slice on one side with the numbers823 and on the other side is TEVA (i think)Won't need to take a urine test until 12 days from now. ## If your Dr. caught you cheating on a U.A. how much trouble are you in? Is this a criminal offence or no big deal just switch Dr.? ## got a green pill from a ...

I been on 3 mg of clonazepam, with 10 mg ambian with T3 codeine/naproxen 375 and am around 100lbs. Oh and toss in a paxil or prozac and 600mg seroquel. I was off my rocker, so I worked myself off now with the VA and on 1 mg. I got the new pink ones and being that I've been on the round ones, they seem different. I get my script every 14 days, on restriction, so I got the orange .5 too and between the orange one and the pink 0.5mg they are very different. The pink seems like junk. I tried both on different nights and know when they wear off. I can last maybe 12 hrs on the orange v.s. like 6 on the pink and feel icky. Long story short, yeah the pink ones are junk. ## What are the markings on the tablets in question? I am sorry, but without these specific details, I cannot research it ...

I just got green 2mg xanax that are green and have 3 scores in it instead of 4 scores like the white. i usually break them in half for 1mg but i heard the middle one of the green bar is 1mg and the two sides are .5mg each is this true so i know if im taking the right amount of medicine? ## would like to order xanax ## Hi Falcoon, The green bar you have is the Generic Xanax (alprazolam 2mg), which explains why it's different. Just out of curiosity, who told you that the middle of the green bar is 1mg and the two sides were 0.5mg? It makes sense to me, but I can't find any details online confirming that. In any case, if do you feel the need to split the dose in half and you aren't able to find an answer to your question, I would suggest contacting your doctor about rewriting a...

I hve been on 1mg alprazolam for 20 years. They have always been blue. Just got a perscription and was green. It does not have the same effect. I only take at night.with no side effects. ## What are the markings on the tablets? That is what would enable us to identify them and check what they are for you, I can't really tell you anything from just the colors. Can you please post back with more information? ## I got them the other day from my pharmacy, they taste minty to me :\ ## That sounds like a koloipine and not a Xanax cause that's how they taste minty. U might wasn't to check with the pharmacy and or Dr vuz those I think r koloipines. And Xanax does not taste minty. Hope that was a help ## It definitely sounds like they mixed up your meds it sounds like a Klonopin defi...
