Alprazolam for Anxiety: All You Need to Know

If you have ever heard of the medication, Xanax (and you probably have), then you will know its active ingredient, alprazolam. Alprazolam was discovered years ago by the Upjohn Company, which later joined the pharmaceutical giant, Pfizer. It is approved as a medication to treat anxiety and panic disorders. Alprazolam is a benzodiazepine. These medications are well known for their effectiveness. They are safe treatments, but are typically only prescribed for use in the short-term. 

When the patent held by the manufacturer of Xanax expired, it made way for other pharmaceutical companies to produce generic versions of this medicine. These generic options all contain alprazolam as the active ingredient and are therefore, just as effective as Xanax. They produce the same effects, have the same side effects and are of the same quality as the original medicine. The most notable difference between these versions is the cost. The brand name treatment is costly because it was the first of its kind to be released for the treatment of anxiety, while the generic pill is affordable because its manufacturer did not have the same advertising and research expenses that the original manufacturer had. As a result, when you buy the generic form; you will be paying up to 85% less than when buying Xanax. 

How Do I Take Alprazolam?

You take alprazolam tablets by mouth. You should swallow a pill with a drink of water, rather than with a sweetened or fizzy beverage. Also, you should swallow the pill whole as opposed to chewing or crushing the medication. If you chew or crush the tablet, you will find the medication to be bitter and you will also change the way that the treatment works. 

You may take these anxiety pills before or after eating. But in general, it is not best that you take the medication immediately after a heavy meal. This is a meal that contains a lot of fatty foods. The fatty foods require time to digest, and this prolongs the absorption of the active ingredient; which delays the effects of the medicine. 

You should take this medication at roughly the same time every day (if you are using it regularly). This should ideally be in the morning. If you forget to take one of your scheduled dosages, do not take two pills to make up for the missed one. Rather, skip the forgotten dose and continue with treatment as normal. If you are using alprazolam on demand, take the tablet whenever you feel anxious. 

How Does Alprazolam Work to Help Anxiety?

Anxiety is typically described as over-activity in the brain. These feelings are communicated via a series of nerve cells, known as chemical messengers. When you take alprazolam, this medication works to ease this over-activity and lessen the communication of these messages. 

Being a benzodiazepine, alprazolam functions by affecting the action of gamma-aminobutyric acid, or GABA. This is the most abundant neurotransmitter (or chemical messenger) in the central nervous system (CNS). The main purpose of GABA is to block certain messages that the brain sends to the body. and when benzodiazepines enter the bloodstream, the medication binds to the receptors of GABA in order to enhance its activity and make the neurotransmitter work overtime. As a result, the messages of anxiety are blocked and you feel significantly calmer and more relaxed. 

Is It Safe for Anyone to Take Alprazolam?

While alprazolam is a safe anti anxiety medication, it is not safe for every person with an anxiety disorder. There are some men and women who have health complications that make the use of alprazolam unsafe. Examples of situations where it is not safe to use this medication include:

• If you are allergic to alprazolam or any other ingredient in this medication
• If you have a history of substance abuse, such as being addicted to drugs or alcohol
• If you have an addiction to benzodiazepines or any other prescription medication
• If you have decreased lung function (for example, if you have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)
• If you have sleep apnea
• If you have severe depression, suicidal tendencies, or psychosis 
• If you have asthma 

To check if you may be allergic to this medication, you can read the list of ingredients on the packaging. You can also find this list in the medication guide of your treatment. This is the paper handout that is enclosed in the packaging when you buy alprazolam. Alternatively, you may get this information from the consultants on our pharmacy website. 

In addition to the above, it is not safe to use these anxiety pills if you are below the age of 18 years. The safety of alprazolam has not yet been established in minors and as a result is not recommended for such patients.
