Drink your Xanax (alprazolam)?: I'm not sure what you mean by "drink my xanax"? It comes in pill form. You should take any medications as prescribed by your physician -- or physicians, if you also have cardiologists.

No Xanax (alprazolam): As mentioned earlier, short acting benzos like xanax (alprazolam) especially in the absence if a definitive treatment plan of anxiety utilizing an anxiety modulator ( like some of the antidepressants) is associated with interpose withdrawal, faster tolerance and gradual increase in baseline and abnormal anxiety alike. Check with your psychiatrist for a more comprehensive assessment & evaluation of ur anxiety.
