A member asked:
If i took 0 5 mg of alprazolam to control a panic attack can i drink safely 48 hours after that ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Xanax (alprazolam): In moderation, ok. Xanax (alprazolam) has medium half life and it would be out of your system by then. Caution regarding regular alcohol use and triggering panic attacks.
