does kolinpin make one feel better fast, does anxiety go away quickly, does it feel similar to valium or hydrocodine ## Hello, Phyllis! How are you? Hydrocodone is an opiate, so it cannot be compared to the other two medications that you mentioned. The FDA classifies it as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. However, Klonopin and Valium are both benzodiazepines and generally are comparable in efficacy and they treat the same conditions, but the dosage is different. The FDA also warns that they carry the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. It usually takes about 15 to 20 minutes for them to...

Do you need to take for awhile to work for anxiety? Did nothing for me at 50 mg ## This medication usually does start working within 15 to 20 minutes of taking it. Did you experience any of the known side effects listed by the FDA, such as dizziness, drowsiness and dry mouth? Many medications do take awhile to reach their full efficacy in your body, but ones like this typically do something even on the first dosing. ## I never felt even sleepy. Tried 100 but nothing.

got yellow xanax bar with 3 slits to make 4 parts, kind of fatter than normal bars with slightly round edges. I have never seen one like this and nothing comes up in pill identifier. Is this real or something else? ## It's definitely real. They (drug companies) make generic 2mg bars that come in white, yellow and green (the green ones only break into 3 little squares instead of 4 like the other white and yellow, but it's still 2mg too). Try various pill identifiers and type it exactly as I wrote it and you can check any pill on there but you have to be able to enter the numbers or letters on the front and/or back of the pill (you can figure it all out with the simple instructions on the page) I've actually looked that exact yellow xanax bar the first time I saw them like 5 y...

I found one I need to know if its fake ## This tablet is manufactured by Sandoz Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 2mgs of Alprazolam, a generic for Xanax, which is a benzodiazepine that's most commonly used to anxiety and nervous disorders. 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. The tablet should be a white rectangle with GG and each of the numbers separated by a score. Is there anything else I can help with?

Can I take a butal-asa-caff capsule (50/325/40) while taking buspirone? ## Hello, Paula! How are you? You can take them together, if your doctor has instructed you to do so, but the Buspirone may reduce the efficacy of the Butalbital. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Yes, is Lexapro a safe med for anxiety/depression?

I am in a predicament where I was from medical leave due to an unforeseen emergency and along the way, my hospital accidentally booted me out of the system with regards to any benefits so right now I do not have the money or fines to go see my regular physician's .. my question is because I have an urgent situation at the moment and I do not want to go to the emergency room do I have any options as far as having a physician speak to me and possibly prescribe through online means ??

Last Wednesday I took my cat to the vet and he was given 5 mg of valium every 12 hrs and phenobarbatal 16.2 mgs every 12 hrs. The pills came cut in half and every time I put it in his mouth he spit it out and each time I put it in again it was wet and devolving between my fingers. I started giving him it on Wednesday twice a day for seven days. On the seventh day I tested positive for barbiturates? Can this happen? By touching or handling the pill in there natural form and if they've been broken and dissolving? Please reply A. S. A. P. I may go to jail if I can't prove this can happen. Emergency!!!!

well i resently cutt off a few fingers so i got the hydrocodon for pain when i take 2 of them and 1 hydroxyzine pam 50 mg cap too sooth my stomach.i get feeling really sick to my stomach. but when i take 1 oxycodone 10-325 and 1 hydroxyzine pam50 mg cap i feel fine why is that? ## They are two different opiates, one contains Hydrocodone and the other Oxycodone and each may effect you differently. Not everyone experiences the same results or side effects from every medication they take. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

the only thing u could do to get ur benzos early would be to "switch benzos", bc he can't legally write u a script for the same thing 5 days early. I'd go to your doctor and tell him xanax is starting to scare you bc at Times it doesn't seem to be working as well so you've been having to take an extra here and there and now it's leaving you short at the end of the month...So you think it'd be best if you switch to something different like valium (stays in ur body the longest & u won't get withdrawals for 3-5days w/out it), OR klonipin (stays in ur body longer then xanax). I suggest valium. It has the longest half life. Xanax is the strongest but also has the shortest half-life which means it's going to give u bad withdrawals soon after stoppin...

Wondering if somebody is making illegal drugs and trying to pass them off as legit xanax. ## Illegal pills can be made in any shape and any color. This is the first report of these I've seen and of course don't take them! ## @dave, I second what Eddy said, as I have not seen or heard of any xanax (neither real or fake) coming in the form of a red gel cap. If you don't mind my asking, where did you come across these and who was it that suggested they were xanax to begin with? Does the capsule have any markings that we can look up? My first thought that came to mind based on your description is that these certainly are not xanax and that you should probably dispose of them. However, out of curiosity, I think it would still be interesting to find out what exactly is in them thr...

I wouId appreciate some feedback on anyone's experience with taking Valium time released capsules. I'm desperately needing relief from my extreme anxiety conditions. ## It is called ValRelease and works just like other benzodiazepines or other forms of Valium, except it is slow released over time to help keep your symptoms under better control. Can anyone that's actually taken it chime in? The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability.

My doctor advised me Dulan for treating anxiety (symptoms: when I go to sleep, I feel hard to breath due to which I woke up, sometimes during day time I had anxiety attacks). I had taken it for more then 14 months. Now my doctor advised me to stop taking Dulan and gave me G-Mix Tabs and Stemetil Tabs. But these are not working as I am having anxiety attacks again. Can I take Dulan for a longer period of time as it was helping me? Please do answer. {edited for privacy}

I live in Scotland, answering to your concerns of dodgy fake Watson tubs, they do look proffessenally done lol. I tasted one and they are horrid. No Diazepam in them period. They taste exactly like the fake tensium from yrs ago, gritty and I don't have a taste to compare with other than fake tensium from way back. Honestly buddy they are rancid, if they were Watson they'd say Dan 562; if I got the numbers wrong I stand corrected lol. The price set alarm bells ringing with me instantly. My opinion is activist took over and the labels and bottles from old Watson tubs were stolen from factory, only opinion.

Does anyone have a doctor who would easily prescribe me Xanax? I have had success in treating my panic attacks with it in the past, but my current nurse practitioner will not change me off my lorazepam Rx. Ativan makes me tired and does not have the same helpful effect thst alprazolam did. Thank you! ## I have had no problems with Xanax in Arizona, although last month my doctor wanted to continue with Klonopin. I reminded him I only tried a few of them and prefer Alprazolam so he wrote for those but for only 60 mg a month. As it is I have a couple thousand bars so that was just fine. He did write for 570 Soma which far exceeded my expectations! I will say Ativan was the worst, I hated them and stopped. 2 weeks later, almost died and was hospitalized. Flushed a years supply down the toil...

Very specific information of how the xr xanax 1 milligram tablet works and if you had to make it instant release is it possible by crushing it or cutting it into little pieces or is there any kind of way? ## DO NOT ever crush up an extended release pill or one that is not scores as its not made to be broken

iv e been taking xanax for 22 years for my anixiey.and panic attacks ,now my doctor put me on klotopins,and they dont have the same effect,im not feeling too welll ## Hello, Cindy! How are you? What was your Xanax dose and what dose did they prescribe of the Klonopin? They are a 1 for 1 conversion, so the Klonopin should work, unless your doctor didn't prescribe enough. There is also a slight chance that it just doesn't work for you. Have you informed your doctor of the problem? These medications carry the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. ## I have 2 bottles of Klonopin and although I only took 4 pills, I felt they worked pretty much just like Xanax. The Doctor gave them to me because he said they wer...

My daughter died, my Dr is anti drug, and only prescribes 15 ativan a month for insomnia. My former dr was giving me 2mg xany bars for panic attacks, and major anxiety because of a prolonged illness, and possible impending above the knee amputation. He threw me at least 100 bars a week. I never liked them and only took them for the really bad panic attacks. I have leftover bottles in my safe that I kept for emergencies. I paid good money for them obtained them legally and when I did consider flushing them I was told that you'd contaminate the water by doing so, and that the correct method of disposal was to return them to the pharmacy and that pissed me off. I spent a ton at the pharmacy and now they get them back. I inquired about donating them to a free clinic or hospice and they ...

Can you take 100 milligrams of morphine in 2 hours later to take a xanax ## Hello, Tom! How are you? You can, as long as they have been prescribed for you. However, they both tend to increase sedation, so you may experience more dizziness and drowsiness than usual, as reported by the FDA. If you have existing medical conditions that affect your breathing, or heart, taking them together in high doses could be too much for you. People who are not tolerant may also experience overdose. The FDA also wants that both of these medications carry the risk of being habit forming. Is there anything else I can help with? ## No that's about it, I appreciate it.

I've been taking the form of lorazepam identified by a "v" on one side and "4008" on the other for years. Recently I switched pharmacies and they gave me a NOTICEABLY different version, manufactured by "Watson labs" ("Watson" on one side and "1/241" on the other). I might as well be taking placebos even though it's the same dosage. My doctor told me that manufacturers can vary in the make-up of the pill by almost 2% and still legally call it the same dosage/drug, so what I'm feeling (nothing) may really be due to the difference in manufacturer. I want to go to my new pharmacy & ask if they can fill my prescription with the pills from this other manufacturer, but I don't know who manufactures it. I suppose I can just bring one o...
