It turns out that Miltown was replaced by benzos (Valium, Xanax, and other muscle relaxants in the benzodiazepine family)in the 1960's.

An online article claims to identify the drug referred to in the Rolling Stones' song Mother's Little Helper, as Miltown (meprobamate), but these pills are white, where the song refers to "a little yellow pill" and in 1966 many say that valium came in yellow-colored pills.
So is the article correct or incorrect? Is the "little yellow pill" actually valium instead?
From the UK Aftermath album and a top 10 single (#8) in the U.S. in 1966.
