Mylan 457 Pill

Mylan 457 pill can be placed in the middle of Mylan's Lorazepam pills as it is 1mg Lorazepam in strength, which is twice as much as Mylan's M 321 0.5mg pill, and twice as little as Mylan's 2mg indexed with "777" number. It is a generic version of the medication otherwise known under the trade name Ativan. Mylan 457 (Lorazepam) belongs to the class of drugs called benzodiazeoines which are generally used for treatment of anxiety disorders and as sedatives. Mylan 457 is a rather strong pill to be used initially, as normal initial dose of Lorazepam is 0.5mg (taken twice daily). But the pill is scored, and it can help you break it into two halves easily.

M 321 Pill

Some of Mylan pills are not indexed with the word "Mylan", they only have the letter "M" on them. One of such examples is Mylan's M 321 Pill. It is little, round, with "M" embossed on one side and "321" on the other. It is Mylan's Lorazepam (generic Ativan) again, 0.5 mg now. And it is the usual initial oral dose that is administered to healthy adults in the beginning of treatment.

Mylan 777 - 2mg Lorazepam Pill

White round Mylan 777 pill is 2mg Lorazepam (generic Ativan). It is the highest dosage of Lorazepam manufactured by Mylan Pharmaceuticals. Lorazepam is a sedative or anti-anxiety medication from the benzodiazepine family, ten times more potent than another benzodiazepine - Diazepam. When needed, the dose of 2mg Lorazepam taken at a time can be achieved only gradually, beginning at 0.5 mg, day after day increasing the dosage. So one should by no means start treatment taking whole Mylan 777 pills at once, as it may cause severe adverse effects.

Mylan's Lorazepam

Among other well-known medications manufactured by Mylan Pharmaceuticals we find Ativan. Of course, it is not called Ativan (as it is a brand name), it is Ativan's generic - Lorazepam. The pill of Mylan's Lorazepam is indexed "MYLAN 457" and contains 1 mg of Lorazepam. The only difference between Mylan's generic version and the medication distributed under the trade name Ativan is probably the name itself. Otherwise you get the very same drug with the very same properties. Apart from the fact that the generic version is cheaper.
