I am not a Dr. I just play one on tv.

I take them daily and they work great for me! I almost prefer them to the greenstone generic but I like the yellow purepac a little better. These geneva generics with the GG seem to be the most commonly found generic xanax though. I think you got bunk/expired pills or its all in your head. Also, if you smoke, I've heard it decreases the effectiveness of xanax but I am no expert. Just trying to help, sorry you feel they arent working for you.

Idk where you could get them tested but they do make an imprint like that and they always worked for me but in my opinion i never thought they were any good. They should still be working to a degree though so perhaps your tolerance is just very high or the company you ordered them from might have ripped you off. 

Most drugs are safe and effective long after the expiration date on the package.  The easiest way to get them tested might be to take one and then do a home urine drug screen for benzodiazapines say 6 hours later.

to the OP: check http://www.pharmer.org/forum/pill-identification/fake-gg-249-maybe

there was a batch of these that went out around early november that had no active ingrediant in them. luckily my source posted a recall on his pills and offered a refund or a reship of the new ones that had the active ingrediant(which is unknown for the longer 17mm? skinny gg 249s). i have no idea what is in them all i can say is that it is indeed a benzo of some sort, other posts say "phenazepam" .

buyer beware, you may get bunked or you may get the ones with the inknown ingrediant which may be stronger than xanax, and i believe it is much stronger due to the fact people love them so much because they are so strong.

until i did a side by side comparison with a gg249 that i know 100% came from an american pharmacy, i thought my source just had a connection that saved expired pills instead of destroying them, or worked at the plant that they press the pill and kept the ones that were not up to 'quality control' and sold them on the internet. i now know that is not the case and the longer skinny gg249 actually come from another country (russia or surrounding  country?) and they are not pressed in america at all.

if the pill you had was no taste and VERY hard, or when dissolved in mouth it has a very pastey texture instead of the chalky xanax taste, it was possibly the pill from the russian area.
