Xanax Vs. Mylan (Page 6)

What's the difference between the two??
Pfizer & Upjohn XANAX (or XANOR , TAFIL dependent on country) beats almost any alp on the market in my opinion. Galenika KSALOL 1mg and Gador ALPLAX 2mg are just as good.
I live in the UK and have tried both Mylan USA and Mylan (rest of world) 1mg alprazolam. I found the American Mylan to be dreadfully weak, reminiscent of Indian brands but the Mylan which used to be MERCK generics before the US company bought the much larger German company's Generics Division, the sky blue ovoid, unmarked tablet, is one of the better generic alps I have had.
In fact the only Mylan USA product I have had that I found to be anything above average is the old style 'reservoir' Fentanyl transdermal patch (75 & 100mcg/hr) which were both superb quality and much more effective than any of the 'matrix' patches which now dominate such as Janssen-Cilag D-TRANS DUROGESIC. (Particularly effective and giving 12 hrs analgesia and an hour or two of blissful euphoria when the fentanyl emulsion is dried & a small matchhead sized piece heated gently on aluminium foil and the resultant fumes inhaled through a foil 'tooter').
So no comparison as the question appears to refer to Mylan USA. Their 'A4' 2mg tablet is truly awful. Then again I have only ever found ONE American made alprazolam that is anywhere even close to the quality of most European alps, even the dirt cheap EG and Kela, and that is the excellent GREENSTONE 1mg blue (not the usual purple) G3721 & 2mg G3722 white triscored bar. Unsurprising as it is owned by Pfizer and I believe made in the same factory - could even be the same tablet! But best of all is the South African Pfizer/Upjohn XANOR 2mg which for some unknown reason knocks the socks off the same made anywhere else!
Hi,
I am surprised to read that others like other generic brands than Mylan. Mylas has been the only brand that works for me, I guess because it hits me hard and strong immediately!! It does wear off quickly though....
Now my question is friends who have got Mylan where di they get them from??! I live in California and not even one single pharmacy around me carries it. Even Walmart carries Activis! (sp?)
Thank you.
I agree- they are not nearly as strong
But I want 2 know if it dose u the sameas a xanax. How dose it compare. Are they in the same family. And if so is it the same as taking a bar.
No they are not the same class of medicine. Restoril is not a benzodiazepine.
Is the mylan 5050 temazepam 30mg like taking a xanax. Can someone tell me a little about how they are alike.
hotmomma if youve taken xanax for over a year of course you're a druggie dont kid yourself!!!!. Doesn't make you a bad person but the pure fact is that you take benzodiazepines daily and the definition of an addict is someone who takes a substance _3 or more times a week_. So you could say I'm a druggie too!. Most Americans drink coffee everyday, they're druggies also!. We're all druggies!... And about the main question, Alprazolam is alprazolam is fu*king alprazolam!. Dont give a s*** what brand it is, if it's alprazolam active ingredient it's identical to 'Xanax'. Unless you get black market pills or totally crap generics, which is very very very rare. Just like Diazepam and 'Valium'. And the reason so many die when taking oxy. as well as alpraz. is because you really shouldn't mix opiates and benzodiazepines at the same time, if you do, it should be lower doses of both than usual!!.
Peace.
The Mylaun A4 pill is exactly the same as a Xanax bar some people have their general preference of what works better but for your concerns if you found it do be careful kids can abuse this is something to be aware of so if you have children or teens lock it up because it something that needs to be given to patients that need it for anxiety otherwise it can be abused
Well thank you Ridgerunner007. I'm not sure exactly what you said, and yes this forum is subject to moderation. I find many of my posts that don't go through the first time are lost in the Abyss!
Eddie,
Reference your comments on May 15, 2013 on this very forum.....regarding Alprazolam............
I hope I can make a comment, without getting into any trouble with the Monitors, who make
sure everyone obeys the rules. (Good Thing) "My 18 Physician Desk References" and misc.
"REDBOOKS" (Pharmacy's Fundamental Reference), my 3 Latin American (PDR's) titled, "PLM"
for Diccionario De Especialidades, + my activated Dun & Bradstreet Business Informaton Reports,
for USA, and many foreign pharmaceutical conglomerates, "have allowed me to start a consulting
business, on a international level, both on the internet, and with my foreign travel, thru target specific
parties, who are screened, (for my protection) and ISP accounts traced, again for security, in a field
of "data collection" to assist other parties, from getting ripped off, with the proliferation of counterfeit meds
that have infiltrated all 5 continents of the world......big time...since the year 2004.
Examples on alprazolam: Alzam (Adcock Ingram) Zopax (Cipro-Medpro_ and Generic Mylan's version of Alprazolam (better known as Xanax, Tafil, Apraz, etc.) sold in many countries, (Africa) are very, very weak to the experienced person, thus one is not getting what they are paying for. The worst case of counterfeiting, "outside the USA" may be these four drugs...........Roche Valium, Roche Klonopin (USA) called Rivotril, outside the USA, and the 2nd med, is Pfizer Viagra, a Erective Dysfunction pill. Lastly, is, the weight reduction pills...........marketed, as "Adipex-P" (Pentermine Hydrochloride), "Bontril" (Phendimetrazine tartrate) Bontril PDM, with the highest USA/FDA ORANGE BOOK RATING OF "AA" along with the earlier mentioned Adipex P manufactured by Gates Pharma, a subsidiary of USA division of Teva, hdqtrs in Israel. Orange Book Rating "Grade A"
Finally, the appetite suppressant, Diethylpropion hydrochloride, called "Tenuate Dospan" in Australia & Canada.
I apologize if my earlier comments on this great forum, such as my subscriptions of "Martindale, the Extra Pharmacopoeia" (Pharmaceutical Press) by authority of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain, last edition had 3,674 pages of verified data.......................were interpreted as "tacky" and "Bragging" I did not intend to be arrogant. Thus my apology. I travel a lot: thus see the maladaptive business model, and the "Bait and Switching" I perceive, and have become a victim of, has greatly humbled me.

Hi Roy
I have a small yellow oval pill stamped M/ L8, supposed to be synthroid generic. Maker on the bottle is Mylan.
They just refilled with same shape pill in pink stamped M / L9
Same stuff?
Thanks
Charles
My mom occasionally takes 0.5 mgs. She has two different bottles, one says Alprazolam and the other says the same but also says "tablet MYL" on it. She thinks the one without the MYL works better even though it's an older script. After reading a bunch of posts, it seems that the MYL just stands for the name of the company (Mylan). Am I correct?
Capsule Tan and Green Mylan 1101
I usually take 2-3mg's of alprazolam and get completely blitzed out of my mind ( keep in mind I take 15mgs of methadone everyday as well) and recently I came across 12 a4 mylan .25 white Xanax pills and after eating them all at one time, I could almost swear I felt absolutely nothing. I don't care if their 20% less potent than non generic Xanax I didn't feel s***. Never buy mylan Xanax, I honestly thing some may b duds and they just haven't been caught yet. Stick with footballs and bars. They never fail
Sounds like my silly past times.of eating all 90.qty of.my 0.25mg white footballs in 48-60 hours.
Thank you for finally injecting some logic, as rudimentary as it May be, into this thread. I'm on four.Greenstone _G3722_2mg bars as im typing and still incur slight frustration haha.
Now I ran short on my script this month and had a friend give me some of the mylan 2mg pies to hold me off tilll my refill date...(I always screw up every month it drives me crazy anyway), I take usually take 4, white 2mg bars a day, and I was curious if the pies are gonna hold me as well as my bars?? I see so many opinions and am worried I hate freekin benzo withdraw....anyone honestly know?
Who researches Xanax in 40 Countries? What's the grand prize. Can you win a Nobel prize for this research? They should be doing the research on you?
