My internist gave me some Niravam to try and see if i like them. He gave me like a bottle of 100 1mg with a refill. I had never heard of them before him mentioning them. ALso I guess they arent too popular as walgreens didnt have the quantity I needed and said they usually dont order it. I also got some samples. great orange taste..just like tic tacs...lol..till the coating wears off then you taste the alproza. which doesnt bother me as I am very used to that taste and can easily take with no water in an emergency anyways.
Just wondering what anyone that has had this med thinks about it?? I went through my first bottle like in a week..LOL...fixing to go pick up refill as soon as they will allow a refill to go through.
I really dont have much opinion on it as it was just like a X. with an orange taste and since Im used to the 2mg X. I had to take a couple at a time. (dr says its supposed to take less cuz it absorbs quicker on the tongue and non is wasted in the gut)
what do ya'll think about Niravam?:p

They're the same drug as Xanax, which you've probably heard of. Just a different brand name.

Were you on 2mg extended release xanax befor? If so that would explain an instant relese 1mg being "faster acting". That or im missing something :).

nope the xr version of xanax imo is total crap ! i guess i like the quick onset of the reg. ;) I normally take the 2mg bars X 3 a day but he said that the .50 would work as well cuz of the fact that none is wasted having to go through the gut etc.

It really doesnt matter. i went through my first bottle of 90 in about a week (dang that great orange flavor that makes them taste like Pez candy..lol) but i do have a refill on them that i plan on getting other than that Im sticking to the ol tried n true 2mg X. bars.

Just was wondering what others thought about niravam!

I haven't tried it but I've taken xanax and those are allright, so yeah, you can send me a few hundred of these "niravam" tablets and I'll let you know how I like 'em.

PM me for my address.
