Alprazolam (Xanax)

Alprazolam Medication Overview

Alprazolam, commonly known by the brand name Xanax, is a prescription medicine from the benzodiazepine group. Doctors may prescribe it for certain anxiety and panic disorders. Because alprazolam can cause dependence and other serious effects, a qualified healthcare professional should assess your condition before treatment.

How Alprazolam Works

Alprazolam increases the activity of a natural chemical called GABA in the brain. This action slows certain brain activity and can produce a calming effect. As a result, the medicine may reduce symptoms of severe anxiety or panic when a clinician considers it appropriate.

Alprazolam for Anxiety and Panic

Healthcare professionals may prescribe alprazolam for specific anxiety or panic disorders. However, it does not suit everyone. Your clinician will consider your symptoms, medical history, current medicines, and other factors before deciding whether treatment is appropriate.

Alprazolam Strengths

Alprazolam tablets come in different strengths, depending on the product and market. Your prescriber will select the appropriate strength and dose for your individual circumstances. Never increase, reduce, or change your dose without professional medical advice.

Important Safety Information

Alprazolam can cause drowsiness, dizziness, impaired coordination, and dependence. For this reason, you should take it only as prescribed and avoid combining it with alcohol or other medicines that cause sedation unless a healthcare professional specifically advises you to do so. Never share alprazolam with another person.

Stopping Alprazolam

Do not stop alprazolam suddenly if you have used it regularly. Abruptly stopping treatment can cause withdrawal symptoms and may be harmful. Instead, speak with your healthcare professional about a safe plan for reducing or stopping treatment.
