Question 1

what antibiotics are safe to take with xanax (alprazolam)?

Accepted Answer

Most except E-mycin: And clarithromycin. Of course, have your doctor check on this before prescribing any antidepressant, but these are the only ones i could find where caution is recommended.

Question 2

i had a low sodium score of 132....took antibiotics..xanax...ibuprofin..nasonex..and buproprion...is that score bad?

Accepted Answer

No it's not too bad: While 135 is usually considered the lower limits of normal, a 132 shouldn't be symptomatic.  Having said that, you want to track down and find out why yours is low.  Kidney issues, metabolic issues, medication issues, and even the amount of water you drink can play a part in your total sodium level.  Please see your doctor to find out what is happening with you.  (eating more sodium won't fix it.

Question 3

will taking xanax with doxycycline effect the treatment of the antibiotic?

Accepted Answer

No known problem: It should be fine. You can discuss it w/ either or bot your Dr and pharmacist. Get well soon!

Question 4

worried about my urine color. light green. i am taking zoloft pill to start my period & xanax (alprazolam). no symptoms of uti. just finished anti biotics 4 uti?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say: But i would ask the gynecologist who is prescribing for you. Haven't heard of this with either zoloft or xanax, (alprazolam) but green food colorings that are used in some pills could do this, or it could be from certain foods, like brocolli and asparagus. Very rarely, excessive bile in the urine, from some form of gallbladder or liver problems could do this. Your doctor can do a urinalysis to check it out.

Question 5

does calcium interfere with amoxycillin and clarithromycin? in addition, i am taking xantax . i have h pylori. i was eating activia greek yogurt to prevent getting a yeast infection while on antibiotics. if it does interefer with antibiotics, what else ca

Accepted Answer

There : There should be no problem taking either of these while also eating  yogurt. They should work well and be absorbed well. Some antibiotics are not well absorbed if you take lots of calcium pills at the very same time you take the antibiotics. Keep in mind that although yogurt has calcium in it it is not calcium pills. Take care.

Question 6

does the antibotic clindamycin interact with my medication ? im on clonazepam inderal (propranolol) remeron omperazole and alprazolam ?

Accepted Answer

No: There is no drug interaction with  clindamycin.

Question 7

i have a pill that looks like s bar of xanax (alprazolam) and has a 2 on one side and nothing on the back.  it tasted like bitter xanax (alprazolam).  any help out there?

Accepted Answer

A pill: It is hard to know. It may be Valium 2 mg.

Question 8

i took .25 mg of xanax at 9am this morning. i only take on rare occasions. its has been months. tonight im going to an event and would like to have wine. will it be ok to have wine at 10pm tonight?  there will be no more xanax?

Accepted Answer

Xanax: This depends on how fast your liver clears it and how the metabolic path that degrades it is affected by other meds and how much alcohol you drink.

Question 9

can my doctor include another dose of xanax .25mg if i am already taking .5mg of xanax but its not helping?

Accepted Answer

: Yes, dose can be titrated up for a full effect.

Question 10

i have been taking xanax (alprazolam) for several years because i have severe panic attacks. 1 mg 3x''s a day. i don't think it is working anymore. ?

Accepted Answer

Maybe not enough: Most likely the xanax (alprazolam) is still having some effect. Probably it is just not working well enough. Other treatments that are often helpful include serotonin antidepressants (sri's like prozac, zoloft, lexapro) and cognitive behavioral therapy. You should talk to your doctor. But don't abruptly stop the xanax (alprazolam).
