Well, hey, no problem...you can have your own opinion-of course!! I still say that I trust my Pharmacist and don't know why he would 'lie' to me, ya know? It is very unbelievable that a nurse AT Mylan couldn't answer your question for you, very strange indeed.
I will soon be getting the 'real deal' with the Xanax and will be the judge all for myself. I am sure if there IS a difference in strength, I will feel it soon after taking it. If I am not getting the 'proper' Xanax, I soon will be! But, again...the whole point of 'me' taking the Xanax, er ah..Alprazolam, is to take care of my anxiety/panic attacks, and one more (and last) time, the pills I take work wonderfully for me.
As for taste...darn, the one's I have now, by Mylan, they just taste AWFUL...I've had one stuck in the back of my throat on more then one occassion-YUCK!!
Thanks for your input...and no biggie on the spelling! LOL
P.L.
> The pharmacists all say the same thing. I talked directly to Mylan labs yesterday and quality assurance is the isuue. Once the drug companiy gets licensed for FDA approval for making generics the FDA dissappears. I asked the nurse from Mylan how aften the FDA tested their products during or after manufacturing she did not know......unbelievable. They are testing my sample right now. I can tell you I have had all 3 brands you mention and if you dissolve them sublinguinally you will notice a huge difference in the strenght of flavor. also huge differences in efficafacy.
