A member asked:
Can i substitute valium for xanax (alprazolam) for one dose?

Doctor approval: You would need to ask your doctor about this. Valium is dosed differently than xanax (alprazolam). It will stay in your system much longer than xanax (alprazolam). I suggest that you ask your prescribing physician about this change.

Yes: just bear in mind the valium will last a lot longer than the xanax!
