I took Xanax two hours prior to a UA. Will it show up? I am currently in treatment. ## Yes it will show up but why would you take it if in treatment? Did you think Xanax could help your problems? ## If I took 1/2 of .25 xanax 2 hours before ua test, will it show up on a ua result? ## What does it matter why they took it? That wasn't the question. The question was how long before Xanax shows up in your urine. If you don't have the answer don't wrote responses just to criticize; not helpful at all. Clearly no one has the answer because I've read about 20 different peoples answers & the all keep talking about how log before it will get out of the urine. Which again wasn't the question.

I recently ordered medication from overseas since I lost my health coverage. Has anyone had any dealings with this company. The medication arrived but I could'nt get the pills out of the blister pack without them turning to chalk thank you for any help/info. ## I'm sorry, but if they are an overseas pharmacy that doesn't require a prescription, there's really no way to know for sure what you're going to receive or the quality of what you receive, since they aren't regulated by the FDA. What medication did you order? Did you try cutting open the blister packs, rather than tearing or forcing the pills through? ## I'm not so sure about the overseas quality verification and standards but i also have the same health coverage issues. I struggled with it for so long...

I've been taking Lonazep .025mg (3 per day) + Flunil 10mg daily (1 in the morning). Now I want to stop taking these medications and start homeopathic treatment if that isn't a problem? Please advise. ## There is a risk to stopping the Lonazep abruptly, it can create a risk of seizures, according to NIH reports. Thus, it would be best to do a slow taper to avoid such a danger. You should also be aware that there is no actual proof behind homeopathic remedies. They have never been shown to actually work for treating any medical conditions. How long have you been taking these medications?

Numeric characters on one side (34) with what looks like a Lilly insignia and is scored on the back. ## Is it a stylized R? If so, this tablet is manufactured by Actavis and they list it as containing 1mg of Clonazepam, which is used to treat anxiety, nervous disorders, convulsions, and insomnia. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, and dry mouth.

I'm trying to find out if I have a 1 milligram Xanax that has an IFA imprint on it and being oval-shaped ## What color is it? It should be Mexican Xanax but without numbers to correctly identify the pill its hard to tell ## Just wanted to add that the IFA imprint is indicative of "Investigación Farmacéutica, Mexico". If it make things easier, the manufacturer's contact email is: [email protected] However you may have send a translated version of your inquiry along with the English one just to be sure they understand... They have a phone number as well (re: 9000-5386, 9000-5387), but I'm not sure if that would help unless you speak Spanish? Nevertheless, I hope this info comes in handy!

A buddy of mine had his usual monthly 120 2mg bars. White, X ANA X on front, 2 on back. I noticed about half of them were thinner than the others, and they seem to dissolve more rapidly. In addition, the imprint seems to rub off or smudge quite easily. I figured it could be temperature being a factor; for instance, they were left sitting in his car on a few hot, sunny days (I don't know a whole lot about xanax and how easily or hard they are to break apart or dissolve). I guess my main question is.... when the pills are pressed by the pharmaceutical companies, is it possible that a batch of pills get pressed thinner than say the previous batch or should every single one be the exact same thickness every single time? Has anyone ever experienced this before, and if so, are these real ...

I was prescribed Klonopin 1mg about 3 years ago to help with anxiety and sleep. I wish I would of never started this Benzo! The "Nurse Practitioner" who handles Mental health patients did not educate me on what I was getting myself into. When I started taking it of course it was helping me sleep & somewhat helping the Anxiety. I would see this Nurse Practitioner once a month and I would speak on how I was feeling. Throughout the year's never once was I made aware of the Benzo withdrawal symptoms. Fast forward to about a week ago. I started feeling physically sick the worse i've ever felt (Nausea, Fatigue, Severe body aches, Diarrhea) just to name a few symptoms. I told this Nurse Practitioner I strongly believe it is the Klonopin making me sick. The reply was "We...

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...

need to identify so others close to me arent geting fake pills ## Since Xanax is available in several dosages and as a brand name, as well as the generic Alprazolam, plus there are time released and regular release formulations, I cannot possible post pictures or descriptions of all of them for you. Learn more Xanax details here. The best thing anyone can do to make sure that they don't receive counterfeit medications is to make sure they are getting them via prescription from legitimate approved pharmacies. Additionally, you can post back with the descriptions and markings of any pills that they receive and I'll gladly check for you to see if they are Xanax/Alprazolam. Are there any particular pills you want to check? ## long white pill with xanax and 3 lines one one side and a...

Was taking buspirone 5mg for anxiety and it helped but once Ihad my prescription refilled to buspirone 15mg (rectangle split in 5s) it has had a bad effect and isnt helping at all but making me worse. I take the same amount of five at a time but its somehow effecting me different. Is it possible to have adifferent reaction to the same medication just because of the change in mg? ## Hi sam, From my own experience as well as the feedback of numerous other patients, I do believe that changing tablets, manufacturers, etc, can bring about a different reaction - even if you're taking the same medication and dosage. My stance on the matter is based on the seemingly ever-changing list of inactive ingredients (also referred to as binders/fillers) that each pill is composed of. What I've ...

I want to know the difference between the purple xanax and the yellow xanax ## The Color. Pills are not required to be any specific color although they should be ## Hello, Michael! How are you? Eddy is correct, the colors don't mean anything. Thus, no one is able to tell you more about these particular pills. Can you post back with the markings on them? that is what would enable someone to tell you more about them, such as the dosage and manufacturer. 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 a difference between purple and yellow xanax bares?

I have been taking Ativan for 8 years now, prescribed to me by my doctor, after being hospitalized for drug use. I am doing great now, but after a motorcycle accident got prescribed Ativan "lorazepam" again for pain and muscle relief but now I am at 6 mg of Ativan daily and it's not doing the job anymore. It helps me and relieves my pain and anxiety for one hour, then nothing. I need to find a replacement if possible just like Ativan. It's addictive I know, but very helpful in many ways and not heavy or disturbing the next day. I am 43 years old. ## I feel the same way. I noticed a difference in the brand name Ativan made in Germany. It was made by MEDA Manufacturing and I never had a problem until Mylan took over the manufacturing. The pills didn't seem to be mixed ...

I need to know what opioid analgesics and benzodiazepines are prescribed in india as I am on 120mg OxyNorm, 8mg clonazepam, 6mg Xanax per day and 24 to 36mg bromazepam as required ## Desperately seeking help / advice for dealing with severe chronic pain. ## Zaborav, for countries other than the U.S. and Canada, it is really hard to find a comprehensive list of their approved medications, because they generally don't regulate them as strictly. However, I can tell you that they do have equivalents, from what I have seen for most of the medications you are taking. You'll just have to discuss with a doctor or pharmacist there to see if they have the same ones or if you have to switch to something different, but in the same class. Mmc33, it would be helpful if we had a little more ...

Yellow pill with A on one side, blank on the other. I'm allergic to aspirin and am really trying to find out what it is. Could it be ativan? ## Hi Jon, How does the letter A appear on the tablet? Is it a normal looking capital "A" or is it an embedded shape that looks like an A or a V (without the little line -)? I've come across the latter, which is also a round yellow tablet, so I just wanted to double check with you on that. Just for verification, the pill I'm describing is Zelapar 1.25 mg made by Valeant Pharmaceuticals with a National Drug Code of 00187-0453. Also, whereabouts did you get it from? If it was from a local pharmacy perhaps that would be the best place to take it for an immediate means of identification. Hope this helps!

What will happen if I take 10 tablets of restyl 0.5 mg at a time ??? ## Restyl is the indian name brand of american xanax (alprazolam); and should be no different in strength. May I ask why you would feel the need to take 10 of these tablets at once? It most certainly is an overdose, "especially" if you haven't already built up a tolerance to a higher dose than 0.5mg. An overdose of Xanax can be fatal. Other overdose symptoms may include extreme drowsiness, confusion, muscle weakness, loss of balance or coordination, feeling light-headed, and fainting. If you end up ignoring the standard dosing protocol, I'd suggest you seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222. Hope you make the right decision... ## I am insomnia patient, two years ...
