Xanax Generic Yellow

Walmart just changed my generic Xanax .5mg to the oval yellow S 901. They seem to be much weaker than the peach oval ones in the past. Guess it is all about cost. Publix carries the peach colored, thinking about moving to them. Anybody else noticed the yellow oval being weaker?

Uhhhh yea! My best friend, her ex, & I all say basically the same thing! Perhaps it quells my anxiety a little, but basically the same thing happens to all of us, we feel like they aren't working, take more, and rather than the usual progression that takes place we just pass out lol yeah I hate them!!!! I think the best thing to do is have the doctor check the name brand only box on the script.

I'm so glad I decided to do some research on these yellow 0.5 mg, generic suckers! The peach are tge the best!! Yellow ones seem like they're only half the dosage or something! My daughter noticed the exact same result: almost like sugar pills to her ... Pharmacies will tell you they're the same just a different manufacturer. It's been a nightmare! They DO NOT WORK the same as the peach ones. Walgreens carries them.

This brand suckssssss. I am prescribed 2mg three times a day. This manufacturer is also the green bars and I did my research and did u know the fda only has to put 60% of the active drug on the pill?! So after doing research, I have found that these have 60% of alprazolam. The yellow bars have 80% and the white ones that are like beveled up on each corner (greenstone is the brand name) are 90%. So basically these crappy sandoz brand are about half the strength of what they are supposed to be. I go to target which is now CVS inside the store and I request the brand, greenstone. Do your research people....its worth it. Rant over!

Re: 4everDana (# 2)

Generic drugs are allowed a plus/minus 20% variance in the active ingredient. I have been taking 1 mg. xanax 3x a day for several years. I can tell if I haven't taken a dose, but feeling good is not really an option for me. I don't get a buzz, no matter the manufacturer. But I do know the best brands. Sandoz is an old school benzo manufacturer, and they have a good generic. Greenstone is very effective. Teva is usually good. Mylan are weak. I recently got a partial fill of Dava. The jury is still out. One dose yesterday seemed to work ok, but I've heard a lot of negative comments about Dava. Bottom line is the manufacturer of generic meds does not make 'a difference', it makes 'ALL the difference'.

I have to take twice as many of the yellow ones. This is a rip off. I returned a bottle of 90 to my psychiatrist once and she kept them. So, I had to pay again to get the peach ones.

I have lived and worked in Stockholm Sweden for 27yrs until 2006 when I returned to South West England. I joined this site because I wanted some proof outside Sweden and England on the effects of 24 yrs of High Dose Methadone (Physeptone here), 230mg per mil per day and immediate cut off by Pain Clinic Drs because I rescheduled a meeting with them as it was an option on the "important" letter received from them 2 days before meeting the pain clinic to start the process of changing from Methadone (stigma) to something else. Spite was the reason the Dr drove to the village chemist and took my already dispensed Rx to collect Methadone. This caused massive withdrawal problems. I literally thought I would die.

No Dr, hospital, pain clinic would help me. But that was August last year and I suffered terribly and ended up getting a psychosis, ramming my car into a neighbor's car who always nicks my parking space then driving into some bloke stood in the sun trying to be the local hero.. and failing cos I drove into him due to that, then driving down more roads getting a puncture and driving into the back of a student driver because he had false plates, overtaking a cyclist, well pushing him into the river, then parked in a field, realized there are no spare tires on new plastic cars so I lead down on the back seat and my head hit a bag of booze. Drank a liter of Hot Baileys Irish and tried to drive the car out of the field onto the road. Tried walking and talking in Swedish, Finnish, English, Norwegian and Russian until the police arrived. They were so young and I was on another planet. I asked why they had their school uniforms on? When they said they were police, psycho autoism caused me to "karate kick the officer in the face". Well I am 6'4 n he was a dwarf. I would have grabbed his legs, spun him round my head to see how far he would go into the river. This is my defense statement but I can't remember a thing after finding booze in the car.

So I look on this American site and read things that don't make any sense at all. There are many but the main is the 100s of people who have been on benzodiazepines like Xanax and say that when the chemist gives them, the chemist gives them the generic brand or another companies, they can actually notice the difference in strength. I don't want to offend anyone, you must realize you live in a terrible Capitalist country where everything revolves around money. This causes paranoia. Believe me. I started taking every narcotic ever produced from the age of 12. I am 57 and still taking Rohypnol 2mg, or Flunitrazepam the generic as the Swedish Supreme Court would not follow the USA or Britain by banning it. It's too good a drug to ban and as the Swedish are all logical thinkers. Roche had actually solved the date rape problem by making green coated hard pills with blue Crystals inside. But the logical thinking is that you can't ban just one brilliant drug. There are a plethora of drugs to dice a drink and when the rapist or call girl who steals the clients gold and Rolex are caught they will be treated accordingly.

My family of 5 kids, me being 2nd youngest, have all taken every narcotic except for Amphetamines, we used to get from breaking into village chemists by going through the wall, the roof or door, taking all the barbs, benzos and then using metal wedges opening the DDA cabinet (Dangerous Drugs Assembly). I remember coming downstairs while my parents were at work, two of my sisters opening glass bottles of powder Methadone, Pink Diconal pills (dipipinone), Palfium.. mmm, and vials hundreds of Diamorphine Hydrochloride, sometimes there were bottles from 1885, opiates in brown matured syrup so strong we used 2 eye drops 6 a pint. This carried on taking in turns. Once two of us got to a chemists and there was a queue of junkies waiting to break in. Well we all got our degrees at a university except my brother who couldn't hardly stand let alone go to learn. Well they all overdosed except me. And I can assure you this... generic or original they are the same. No one here or in Sweden, Spain, France, Portugal gives a s***. As long as the generic ingredient is in the pill there is no way I can accept what someone on this topic wrote "it definitely wasn't as strong as the regular". Well that confirms what I said, you American Capitalists think drug companies are ripping you off. They aren't! Once you are addicted to benzos you can take as many as you like and never feel the prescribed dose.

I take Clonazepam 2mg. 4 a day I get prescribed by the NHS, in England, 100mcg Fentanyl, 230 mg methadone, 30 mg Severadol IR morphine, 20mg Temazepam, 40mg Diazepam or before Valium Roche, and in Stockholm, also free health everything, Ketogan 4-20mg vials, Dolcontin 300mg IR. morphine, 150 tablets Flunitrazepam 1mg (Rohypnol), Iktorivil 2mg (Clonazepam) 4/day, Phenobarbital 0.1 100 pills (knock out gear and a range of s*** which I bin every month like here in England). Now all the benzos even Stesolid 10mg is really diazepam or Valium. They all have the generic main ingredient. They, whether you believe it or not, are just as strong. Only if you have never had a benzo will they really show just how strong they are. I have a good friend who lives in Vienna. A chemist. He told me about generics, only one country does this due to corruption and export quantity but only for online sales and they are India. Mumbai (Bombay sell loafs of crap to bored house wives in the UK).

Anyway I think I have written a bloody book. I died after driving my Kawasaki Z1300 at 80 miles/hour right into the side of a truck. I died from internal bleeding after I successful splenectomy. They wrote the time of death, put a label on my toe, closed all the gaping wounds with autopsy stitches then the police called my parents to drive in to formally ID me. On my way to the morgue 8 minutes after signing me out of this nut case world my toe moved. S***, if you can understand the concept of absolute nothing (like deep sleep) that is exactly what happens when you die. Your genes carry your personal traits to your offspring, so if you think you are going to some kind of heaven for eternity you are not! In fact it would be the biggest nightmare to spend eternity with family members, mates or anyone except Charline Therone. So belief is one thing, paranoia caused by Capitalists in america is another and religion well goes with the generics I suppose. Get too much rubbish thoughts that aren't logical and in your country only god knows how to help. Hej då och lycka till. Bye guys. Got to fly.

Re: Benzosiveknown (# 6)

I took the Dava brand yellow s901 .5mg long ago when I was first prescribed. I thought they worked well. It's been years and Dava has since been bought by Endo so they may have reformulated them. I haven't had any Dava alprazolam for years but, like I said, they used to work very well for me.
