I totally agree with Philllipa - I went from name brand xanax to generic and not expecting a change, but wow - it was as though I was withdrawing from xanax (was on same dose of generic). I got real withdrawal symptoms - felt awful. 20% can be a huge difference with a benzodiazepine.. Anyway when I went to Greenstone brand, found it worked exactly the same as the brand, made at the time by the same company as the brand name.
