Someone told me it's bad to drink coffee because i take xanax (alprazolam)...i need it for anxiety 3x a day and i need coffee to stay alert...is this a bad combo?

Well...: You take xanax (alprazolam) which can be sedating. You feel sedated so you take coffee to keep you awake. Coffee can stimulate anxiety. Then you take more xanax (alprazolam) to control your anxiety. It may be a wee bit of a dog chasing it's tail.
