Can I use this for my nerves having my drivers road test ## Did take 1tablet but it make my drowsy nd sleepy I need to take my drivers road test is it healthy to feel like this ## Hello, Marlyna! How are you? No, you shouldn't take this, if you're going to be driving, especially when you've never taken it before. It can cause severe drowsiness and dizziness. There is also a risk that it could be habit forming. Have you consulted your doctor?

I am prescibed xanax and mine were stolen, but I was able to get four 1mg xanax to take for my drug test tomorrow. Will they show up in my system if I started taking them on Sunday? ## Very suspicious post. Is there a reason why you feel they wouldn't show up?

I've been taking onax bars 2 for anxiety and my withdrawls are causing me to shake and jump... I havent slept in days and I dont know what to do? ## Hello, Casey! How are you? If you've been taking this, which is a foreign brand for Alprazolam/Xanax and have suddenly run out, you need to seek medical attention. A sudden withdrawal creates the risk of seizures, which could be dangerous and that may be what you're experiencing. This medication carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. How long were you taking it?

Xanax comes in all shapes and sizes ## Did you have a question about a shape. or a size, or a color, or was that a statement? ## Hello, Derrick! How are you? This tablet is manufactured by Qualitest Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 1mg of Alprazolam, the active ingredient in Xanax. The FDA classifies this medication as a benzodiazepine that's most commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. 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? Eddy!! How are you?

Is quanapin a trade name for clonazapam (like Klonapin)? I had not heard of this until a client told me that both quanapin and clonazapam were prescribed. The dosage for quanapin was much higher than would be prescribed for clonazapam. ## Hello, DocDonna! How are you? The only thing I'm finding under that name is where people have misunderstood the name of Klonopin. But there may be others that could be similar. What was the dosage and what country is the client from? That may help me to know where to look. ## What is quanapin and its uses. Its side effects?

I have about 17 Bottles of 90 2 mg bars or pills. My Doctor wanted me to have extras due to a withdrawal incident. The Doctor no longer is practicing, my new Doctor wrote for the same amount but now he is gone too. I'm not worried about running out for the next couple years, but what does concern me is possessing a giant amount of controlled medicine. How do I explain this quantity? Some of it was from 2010, most from 2011, technically expired, along with some newer scripts from the last 8 months. Usually you are not supposed to obtain a refill until we run out. They are all in my name, spaced about a month apart. I do not sell yet how would I explain why I have so much? ## Hi Eddy, Just to clarify, who exactly are you talking to about the Xanax you have? A doctor or pharmacist? I c...

5 DAYS ago I took 150mg ov valium, i didnt go to the hospital, I still feel like it is in my system, how long before the effects have gone? ## Have you consulted your doctor? Even if you feel as if you are only suffering some mild ill effects from it, after taking such a high dosage, at once, it is highly possible that you've done some damage to one vital organ, or another. Thus, it is very important to consult a medical professional, so they can run tests to check for this, as some damage may be reversible, but some may be permanent and require treatment. ## What effect in body over dose of restyl .5 mg tab

I have ADD and anxiety. I can't even try take ADD medicine such as Buspar or Straterra. . What can I take that is easier on me. My symtoms from these medicines include, sweating, hot flashes, rapid heart beat, skin feels like its crawling, etc. I am overweight 217 pounds. I also want to lose weight. What can I take to lose weight and not have bad side effects? ## For anxiety you may do better with one of the medications that is a straight downer, such as a Benzodiazepine like Xanax. Learn more Xanax details here. However, all of the medications that I am aware of for ADD and weight loss are stimulants, so they would cause the same types of symptoms. Have you talked to a doctor about the issues? ## Hi am nandhini my age is 28 weight79 I don't have thyroid doctor suggested me ebex...

I was just prescribed lorazepam to help deal with the anxiety of my husband of 18 years divorcing me. He can't seem to wrap his mind around supporting me towards wellness, and he has contributed to the severity of the depression...for about 14 years. My concern is that lorazepam will make me drowsy and create muddled thinking. I really need my wits about me to navigate my way through the divorce. So, reducing anxiety at the cost of clear thinking doesn't do me much good. My Doc is replacing Xanax because it just knocks me out. What are other people's experience with this drug? Anybody get relief from anxiety WITHOUT drowsiness? I'm going to try a mid dose today (Saturday) in the range my doc prescribed. Trial run :0) What about split doses? I've been told to take a h...

They say I take too may of my medications, which is not true. 2 yrs ago, I had a bad car wreck and went through 5 medium size wooden post with my car. My airbags didn't deploy. The concussions hit all the parts ofl my brain plus I developed seizures , bilateral DVTs and PEs and other problems, such as TBI. I can talk for myself and make my own decisions. I am almost 40 yrs old. The doctors don't listen to me but they listen to my parents. My anxiety is very high along with anxiety. I have had most of the medications, but only a few work. I have chronic pain and chronic high anxiety. How do I make the doctor listen to me and prescribe the right medications that I know wor...

Little light blue pill with a V and a split line same side but thats all i can make out on it its alil beat up what pills r blue small have a V and a splitt same side ## Hi gary, There are lots of pills with a V on one side and a score on the other (usually with a set of numbers to identify the pill as well). It's hard to know for sure, but I believe the V is the logo for Qualitest pharmaceuticals. This pill could be anything from a narcotic for pain to a benzodiazepine for anxiety. It could also be a medication manufactured outside the United States, or possibly an over the counter product, but it has been difficult to verify 100%. If you cannot have it analyzed then I would recommend that you safely dispose of it. Where did you find the pill? ## Small baby blue pill but numbers on...

I bought a box of 5mg Valium with 14 in a strip 2 strips in a box one side of it is blank while the other side has c then a line with DB below it are they real or fake ? ## We get loads of these in Scotland. They look real and taste real. The box and information leaflet inside all seems legit but if you look at them in bulk, the serial numbers never change with shipping. No best before dates, etc. They work just fine but my opinion now shared by many others is that they are mass produced in India or Pakistan and altho they definitely contain diazepam as proved by u/a's I feel perhaps some have more diazepam in them than others but even if fake they are far safer than taking loose pills from God knows where. The ones we get are usually activis or teva. Hope this helps

Hello. I have been taking Ativan for 7 years. I take 1mg a day. I cut it in half and take half in the morning and the other half in the evening. Yesterday I needed a refill and made an appointment with my doctor. Unfortunately he is on vacation. The nurse told me that to have a refill I needed a drug test. I said yes. The doctor's assistant came to the room and told me that unfortunately he could not give me a refill because they had found opiates in my urine. Heroin, cocaine and codeine. I thought it was a joke, well it was not. I am not feeling well, I am still in shock and no medication. I did some research and found out that you can't take away this type of medication from one day to the other and that it has to be done gradually. I am very confused, please help. This assist...

Hi, i'm on 1mg xanax daily, and i have to attend lectures twice a week each lecture lasts 2hrs. I usually doze off during the lectures, how can i stay awake in class? Tks for any advice u can give. Bless u. Regards, Sleepyboy ## If you are on 1 mg of Xanax daily, take it at night? ## My doc just prescribed lorazepam as a replacement for Xanax. The Xanax just knocked me out...FAST. Supposedly, the lorazepam gives a more sustained reduction in anxiety. Not quite so rocket ship up & back down. I don't know about the drowsiness factor yet myself though. Since it's Saturday & I don't have anything critical planned, I'm going to try a mid dose in the range my doc prescribed. I'm really hoping for anxiety reduction WITHOUT the extreme drowsiness/sleepiness that ...

Yellow, round pill. One side has L R Other side has M< ## Lorazepam or alprazolam? ## Based on the description provided, The closest match I've been able to locate has the imprint "LR" rather than "LR M<". This pill is also round and yellow, but does not show a score line in the represented photo (however a different photo may prove that it has one). If this sounds like a possible match, the imprint LR is identified as Panwarfin (7.5 mg); manufactured by Abbott Laboratories. If this doesn't appear to be a match, I would consider taking the pill over to your local pharmacy and having it analyzed by their team to see if they can come up with anything. And as a last resort, you could ask them about getting the pills ingredients lab tested and brought back to...

Given to me as xanax. No imprint. Just a line down the middle on one side.Told they were from outside america. They taste like xanax. Sweet before the bitter. im guessing its the outer coat. Cant find an image anywhere. Any ideas? ## Also, they are said to be .5 mg each. Four equaling one 2mg xanax bar. Thanks! ## Even prescription pills from other lands have numbers on them. What if they are poison or something worse? ## No, not all countries require imprints on them. That is only relevant to the U.S. and Canada. In other countries, it is really up to the whit and whim of the manufacturer, some of them prefer using imprints to identify their products and some don't. That is one of the hazards of obtaining medications from other sources, if they aren't approved, then they don...

i was under medication for almost 10 months, and i gained a lot of flab, and even few lipomas. ## Lopez (Lorazepam) has a number of side effects that could increase your chances of weight gain. Below is a list of common side effects associated with this medication: drowsiness dizziness tiredness weakness dry mouth diarrhea nausea changes in appetite restlessness or excitement constipation difficulty urinating frequent urination blurred vision changes in sex drive or ability Theoretically speaking, it's easy to see how one can gain pounds just from having a side effect like constipation for a number of weeks, or changes in appetite, along with tiredness or weakness. A combination of these would be dreadful in my opinion. More information about this medication can be viewed in the two...
