Can you take Ritalin and benzodiazepines?

The answer is YES and NO. They are two different drugs. Ritalin works on dopamine to make it stay for a longer period of time. Hence increase mental alertness, memory, no fatigue, increase concentration, euphoria, increase libido. On the other hand Xanax works on GABA receptors which partly relieves anxiety and is a short acting sedative too. So if both taken in combination the result can be excellent as well as disastrous. excellent in a sense that xanax cops with the adverse effects of Ritalin such as inc. heart rate, anxiety, insomnia etc. And disastrous in a sense that you are playing games with your brain. on one hand you are telling it to slow down while on the other you are wipping it to run faster than normal. Do the math! Get advice from M.D!
