M T7 or Pliva 616. Any difference?

A very common situation is when the same medicine is produced by different manufacturers. And an even more common situation is, when getting some differently indexed pills, people wonder if they are the same drug, as they may look poles apart.

A simple example. We have already examined one of Mylan's products, a pill indexed "M" and "T7". It is little, white and round. No wonder that when someone comes across an oblong pill with "Pliva 616" code (the pill is obviously larger in size!), he or she may think that the pills' active ingredients differ to the same extent as their appearances. But... No! Both M T7 and Pliva 616 are the same, invariable 50 mg Tramadol hydrochloride, though made in different parts of the world. And the effects of these pills are the same as well, too!

You are very welcome to find more of such analogues, and leave your comment on this blog, comparing Mylan's products to similar products made by other manufacturers ;)

M T7 Pill - Mylan's Tramadol HCl

One more Mylan pill indexed with "M" letter, not with the whole word "MYLAN". Now it is M T7 pill - Mylan's generic version for Ultram (Tramadol HCl). It is a little round white pill with "M" debossed on one side and "T7" on the other. The medicine belongs to the opioid class, and is similar in its effects to codeine. It is a mild narcotic pain killer used for treatment of moderate to strong pain. Each Mylan's M T7 pill contains 50 mg of instant release Tramadol HCl. It should mentioned that Tramadol has a high potential for abuse and must not be taken without prescription.

Mylan 183 - 20mg Propranolol HCl Pill

Let us go on with our Mylan's Propranolol series. This time we shall have a look at Mylan 183 round blue pill. As you may notice, "20" is debossed on one of its sides. So, it is 20mg Propranolol HCl, a generic version for Inderal manufactured by Mylan Pharmaceuticals. The pill is scored to enbale a patient divide it easily into two equal halves of about 10 mg. Propranolol is mainly used to treat hypertension and heart rythm disorders. The usual total daily dose of it is about 80 mg which equals four Mylan 183 pills, though the dose can be increased up to 480 mg daily if required.

Mylan A3 Pill - Alprazolam (generic Xanax)

Mylan Pharmaceuticals manufactures a range of Alprazolam (generic Xanax) pills. All of them can be identified by the letter "A" debossed on one of the sides. The "A" letter is found alone on the least strength of Mylan's Alprazolam (0.25mg pill), while on the pills of greater strength "A" is combined with a number (1, 3 or 4). The pill indexed with "Mylan A3" is 0.5mg Alprazolam. It is, perhaps, the most popular one in the line. The shape of the pill is round, the color can be described as peach. Mylan A3 is an immediate release formulation which is distinguished from extended release versions. In addition to "A", the latter have a letter "M" on the other side (the numbers are different, too).

Mylan 182 - Propranolol HCl

Mylan 182 pill is the least strength of Propranolol hydrochloride manufactured by Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. It is only 10 mg. The medicine belongs to the family of beta-blockers, and is used for treatment of hypertension, heart rhythm disorders and chest pains caused by angina pectoris. The pill is round, ornage-colored, indexed with "MYLAN 182" on one side and "10" on the other. One of the brand names for Propranolol is Inderal.

Mylan's M P/T Pill - Tramadol / Acetaminophen

Mylan's M P/T pill is a compound medication that consists of 325 mg Acetaminophen (APAP) and 37.5 mg Tramadol Hydrochloride. In the pill, opioid analgetic effects of Tramadol are increased by Acetaminophen - a milder pain reliver and a fever reducer. In fact, it is a generic version of a well-known Ultracet (which is also distributed under brand name Tramacet in Canada). The pill is round, yellow-colored.

Mylan's M 545 Pill - Mirtazapine (generic Remeron)

One more pill without "MYLAN" letters on it, indexed only with "M 545". Still, it is one more generic produced by Mylan Pharmaceuticals - Mirtazapine (generic for Remeron), an antidepressant. Each round beige-colored Mylan's M 545 pill contains 45mg of Mirtazapine. The medication is used to treat depression. The dose is quite high, as Mirtazapine is normally taken 15mg daily, and this can only be increased up to 45mg gradually.

Mylan 531 - Sulindac 200MG

Sulindac is also manufactured by Mylan Pharmaceuticals in 200 mg strength, it is Mylan 531 pill. The pills look very similar to Mylan's 150MG formulation, they are yellow-colored, too, but the both letters and number are placed on one side (divided by a score), the other side is blank. Sulindac is the generic name for Clinoril, a NSAID used to manage pain and inflammation caused by different forms of arthritis and acute painful shoulder.
