Xanax ( Alprazolam)

Uses

Xanax ( Alprazolam) is used to treat anxiety and panic disorders. It is related to a class of drugs called benzodiazepines which creates a calming effect on the brain and nerves (central nervous system). It works by increasing the effect of a certain natural chemical (GABA) in the body.

How to Use Xanax

Before taking Xanax, read the medication guide given by your pharmacist and every time you receive a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Take this medication guided by your doctor. Dosage is based on your medical condition, age, and reaction to treatment. Your dose may increase gradually until the drug starts working well. Follow your doctor’s instructions closely to reduce the risk of side effects.

Xanax may be the reason for the withdrawal reaction, especially if it has been used regularly for a long time or in higher doses. In such cases, symptoms of withdrawal (such as visits) may occur when you suddenly stop using this medicine. To prevent withdrawal responses, your doctor may gradually reduce your dose. Immediately report any refund responses.

Although it helps many people, but this medicine can sometimes cause addiction. This risk can be high if you have any substance use disorder (like excess / drug or addiction of alcohol). Take this medicine properly to reduce the risk of addiction. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

When Xanax is used for a long time, it can not work too. Talk to your doctor if this medicine stops working well.

Tell your doctor if your condition persists or worsens.

Side Effects
