Xanax (alprazolam): First-it's not a good idea to "go cold turkey" off a drug such as xanax, (alprazolam) a triazolobenzodiazepine. Benzodiaepine (xanax (alprazolam) is a hybrid derivative of them) withdrawal can be dangerous, depending on your dosage and sensitivity. Seizures can occur, as well: anxiety, panic, tremors, etc.Vaginosis, i haven't heard of , but changes in body chemistry during withdrawal may be a factor, .
