I've heard already that some people think that the green bars are 3mg, however this is not true. I've heard time released xanax is 3mg also, but I'm not even sure there is such a thing as a time released form of this drug. Can someone please clarify this for me and preferrably someone who knows from a reliable source, simply because there seems to be much confusion on this.
Does Xanax or Alprazolam come in a 3 mg form?

Xanax XR or generic, Alprazolam XR is available in 3 MG but only in the extended or controlled release. I can only speak
for the 2 MG. from having them prescribed to me. But I know there is a three MG controlled release. PS. If anyone has had issues with the IR version of Xanax,
controlled release is worth a try. Work very well in controlling your panic attacks and anxiety.
I don't know about 3mg but I know for a 100% FACT that there are 2mg Extended Release tablets, because I take them.
I'm currently taking 3 mg Xanax XR. They are blue in color and round. They also have 3 mg instant release, but they are triangular in shape.
I'm sorry they're green. The 2mg are blue and I just switched the dosage.
They do make a 3mg xanax bars, although, I've never taken them. I did have 1mg extended release. I loved them but my doctor moved my dosage up to the poles 2mg. Unfortunately, I dont know if they make ex. release from of those. Surely I think they would. Just know extended release versions of xanax are a lot more expensive than the normal pill. 3-4x expensive, and some pharmacy's around here had to special order them but I'm from a small town. Hopefully you dont have to go through that struggle
Yes it comes in a 3 mg form. It also comes in a 3 mg XR
Yes, I know I am very late but the only 3mg Xanax they make are Xanax XR the extended-release ones. I've had them so I know they do exist. And yes, they're green.
The green Xanax tablets (bars) are 2mg. Only 3mg tablets available are time released
Look up onax bars they are 3mgs they are stronger than the Xanax bars from USA onax there made with 3mg's of alprazolam they are made in India so to answer your question yes there are stronger forms of xanax out there that are much better than the US version they are called Onax it's the samething there Just stronger than the average xanax bar
Yes there is a three 3mg Xanax - Zan .. It is time released .. Call the pharmacy tell them you are on them and that your doctor talked about it and want to know more about it and they will let you know. Any local pharmacy will tell you. I just called myself and talked to a pharmacy tech. :) Although I like mine to hit me when I take it because if I am taking it then its because I need it right there and then. 2mg is the best way to go and the green three mg is more money at pharmacy.
I talked to my pharmacist, the answer is no. Be careful with what you take unless given by your doc.
Good luck, be safe.
