Xanax XR (brand name) is a whole different drug to me than Xanax IR. All the XL does is make me sleepy, which the IR does not, and the XR doesn't have the definite AD effect I feel with the IR. I think the IR is an excellent drug, but the XR is a stinker-just not the same in terms of anxiety-decreasing ability. I would stay away from the generic...my bet is that a lot of testing and $ went into making the brand name consistent. The generic houses just make things as cheaply as they can...
Best of luck-anxiety is miserable.
