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's Alprazolam (Mylan A Pills)

We have data on four different alprazolam pills manufactured by Mylan Pharmaceuticals. All of them are indexed with "A" and three of them have a number: A1, A3, and A4. Surprisingly, the strengths of the pills don't change from less to larger in correspondence with the numbers:

Mylan A is alprazolam 0.25 mg,
Mylan A1 is alprazolam 1 mg,
Mylan A3 is alprazolam 0.5 mg,
Mylan A4 is alprazolam 2 mg.

As for description, A, A1 and A4 pills are white, and A3 pill is peach-colored. All of the pills are scored on the reverse side, with A4 pill having two criss-crossed scores (to be divided into four parts about 0.5 mg of alprazolam each).

Mylan A3

And again, Mylan's Xanax (or alprazolam). This time the pill is peach-colored. On one side you may read "MYLAN A3", the other side is scored. It contains 0.5 mg of alprazolam (that is 1/2 of Mylan A1 pill). What else should be added? In doses of 0.5mg and above alprazolam can cause significant deterioration in alertness, combined with increased feelings of sleepiness. These symptoms may be doubled if alprazolam is taken together with other sedatives or alcohol.
