I was given this prescription of bella-phenobarb imprinted with west-ward 140. I was trying to look up the strength of it online and all I can find is about bella-phenobarb with imprint of 2320 and another with 450., does anyone know about this,it's strenth and comparables. it does not seem to be helping.

Donnatal comes in various mgs. There is a 16mg & all the way up to 90mg. Many years ago, I took Donnatal & there wasn't a mg. noted & it was a small round tablet. I'd like to know how many mgs. that was, as it sure worked better than the Donnatal on the market now.
Hi charie,
Belladonna alkaloids and phenobarbital tablets contain the following ingredients:
Atropine Sulfate, USP..........................0.0194 mg
Hyoscyamine Sulfate, USP.................0.1037 mg
Scopolamine Hydrobromide, USP.....0.0065 mg
Phenobarbital, USP..................................16.2 mg
Inactive ingredients: Anhydrous Lactose, Calcium Stearate, Colloidal Silicon Dioxide, Corn Starch, and Microcrystalline Cellulose.
I'm not certain if this varies by manufacturer, but I have not seen any details regarding different dosages.
The dosage and administration guidelines recommend the following:
"The dosage of belladonna alkaloids with phenobarbital tablets should be adjusted to the needs of the individual patient to assure symptomatic control with a minimum of adverse effects.
Adults: One or two tablets three or four times a day according to condition and severity of symptoms."

I hope this info helps! I would definitely suggest discussing the dosing instructions more over with your doctor just to make sure that the dose is right for "you" and not just a generalized amount.
