If prescribed: If xanax (alprazolam) is prescribed and monitored by your psychiatrist along with the parnate, yes you could take it.

Drug Safety: Combining Xanax with Parnate can increase risks like dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, & difficulty concentrating (per Drugs.Com). They can be used together if prescribed by your psychiatrist that way.
