Xanax.

Xanax (alprazolam) can be taken by patients who have anxiety and panic disorder, as well as some other ones to whom their doctor provided suitable recommendations. If you have been taking Xanax for a long time, stopping the treatment suddenly may cause symptoms like loss of appetite, seizures, diarrhea, muscle twitching, blurred vision, trouble concentrating, and tingling, so make sure you plan your treatment ahead. Before taking Xanax you will need to tell your doctor if you have any contraindications, such as a history of addiction to drugs or alcohol, a history of depression or suicidal thoughts, kidney disease, breathing problems, glaucoma, liver disease, or any other conditions. Some of them may affect the dose you are prescribed while other ones will require careful monitoring of your treatment by your health care provider. Mild side effects are possible, such as tiredness, dry mouth, increased salivation, weight changes, irritability, light-headedness, changes in sex drive or ability, dizziness, changes in appetite, and drowsiness. They do not need to be reported to your health care provider as they go away on their own in most cases.
