A member asked:
I have collapsed nasal valve and on .25mg xanax (alprazolam) 3x a day. how long will it take to start helping? what's the best way to stop the drug?

Unrelated: Please write more details. The xanax (alprazolam) is not going to help a collapsed nasal valve. You can usually taper off xanax (alprazolam) 0.25mg every 4 days reducing one pill (take it twice a day then once a day then stop.).
