What dosage of xanax (alprazolam) will calm me without affecting my mental capabilities?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Sorry for the disappointing answer, but there is no set dosage and it differs for each person. Even a small dose of alprazolam (Xanax) will dull mental ability and increase sedation, however, some people get used to these effects. Driving and safety-sensitive functions should be done with caution while on alprazolam, or any other benzodiazepine (lorazepam, clonazepam, etc.).
