How do you get a DR. to perscribe Xanax?

There's nothing you can say; doctor's have a sixth sense about addicts. Xanax is a highly addictive substance. If you are addicted, see an addiction psychiatrist. He/she will have ways of painlessly detoxing you and treating the real problem. For example, I was a doctor-shopping, Xanax lovin', self medicator for years before I was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. It turns out that the drug Klonopin, not Xanax, was a much better choice for my anxiety.

Can you fail a pre employment urine test if you have a prescription for Xanax and are taking it?

While Xanax can be tested for, it generally is not part of the standard lab testing package unless your PO is specifically concerned about that drug in particular or if the terms of your parole dictate that you should not be taking it. Because they are prescribed to such a large number of people for stress and anxiety to be taken for extended periods of time, benzodiazepines such as Xanax, Valium, Ativan, etc, are generally not tested for.

Can xanax make you positive on a drug test?

No, Xanax is a benzodiazepine and methadone will show up as methadone because it is synthetic and requires its own specific test.

Can you take Adderall with xanax?

I wouldn't recommend trying it without consulting your doctor first, it could be very dangerous indeed.

Adderall and Xanax

My doctor prescribed me adderall and xanax (well actually niravam which is the same active ingredient in an instant dissolve form) at the same time. His only concern was that prescribing a medicine to treat anxiety with one that can cause it would be counterproductive. He said there weren't any major health issues.

Another View

I'm Leum and this is a separate answer based upon my personal experiences and research. I agree that you should only take adderall and xanax with a doctor's approval, but since you state that you have the doctor's approval and he claims there are no major health issues, you needn't be concerned.

I have personally been on a combination of adderall and xanax or Valium for many many years, and it is quite effective for me. People react differently to medications and I assume that you have ADD or ADHD since you are being prescribed adderall. I too have ADHD and just adderall by itself has a calming and focusing effect on me. adderall, although an amphetamine, does not create the typical non ADHD person's response as my biochemistry and physiology is different.

Due to stress and anxiety, I also require either the xanax or Valium. The combination works very well for me, and so long as you watch for drug dependency problems whereby you begin increasing the dosages at a steady pace, you'll be okay. Just taper off when you want to stop taking the medications as both can be psychologically addicting, and the xanax or Valium can cause physical addiction whereby you can suffer dangerous and even life threatening withdrawal. But again, tapering off by slowly reducing the dosage over a period of time is not difficult.

One final comment is that when you initiate therapy, don't be overly concerned about increasing dosage until you reach the point where you find relief. Then once you have found your own proper dosage, you should not require to increase from there, else you may be developing addictive behaviors.

How much does a xanax pill weigh?

It depends on what mg the tablet is and whether it is brand or generic.

Is Ambien like Xanax?

No. Ambien is indicated for insomnia. Xanax is indicated for anxiety.

If switching from 1mg of xanax to Ativan or Valium what would be the equivalant in mgs?

1mg Xanax = 2mg Ativan or 20mg Valium. You also have to consider onset and duration of action. Xanax is very fast-acting but only has a half-life of 6-12 hours. Ativan has a relatively quick onset with a half-life of 10-20 hours. Valium on the other hand, is a slow-acting benzo and stays in your system for days.

Can you take temazepam and alprazolam together?

Only if your doctor recommends that they be taken together. Otherwise, taking these two medications concomitantly may produce excessive CNS depression. Zolpidem (Ambien) is a nonbenzodiazepine of the imidazopyridine class, but its effects may be mediated by the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Because it shares this mode of action with the benzodiazepine temazepam, there is a high risk for exaggerated CNS side effects including dizziness, confusion, light-headedness, headache, etc. and CNS depression, which may be life threatening.

What are the effects of xanax and lexapro and alcohol together?

Sometimes it increases panic attacks during hangovers. You can get very drunk with just a few drinks. You may completely passed out.

It's best not to drink while taking citalopram, but if you do, limit the number of drinks to one or two glasses of wine or one or two beers. Avoid hard liqueur completely. Stay home when consuming alcohol.

Drugs what do they do?

They modify the chemistry of your body.

As the majority of your chemistry is the result of many millions of years of selection and optimizing, then usually drugs screw-up the way your body works. Especially your brain

Effects of mixing Klonopin and Xanax?

if you are careful. definatly consult a doctor about that though. heath ledger died recently because he mixed a pain killer, an antidepressant, and an antianxiety agent, (by doctors orders [a stupid doctor at that]) in theraputic doses, not even as a recreational drug to get high. klonopin is an antianxiety agent and oxycodone is a pain killer so that's 2/3.

The mixture of these two medications, Oxycontin and clonazepam, is VERY DEADLY! The previous answer on Can you mix Oxycontin and clonazepam compares the combo to Valium and vicodin...???

That is NOT even a compatible comparison. Not at all!

On April 15, 2010, I lost my wonderful, intelligent and forever loving son. He was only 28 years old. He has been dealing with neck, head and shoulder pain for many years and after many other narcotics were tried and he got addicted to them, he went through the Narcotics Anonymous program and got off all the medications, except an anti-inflammatory, dicloflenac. He was in pain daily but no tests could identify what the problem was. MRI's, CAT's, bloodwork-ups, rheumatologist, neurologist, bone specialists, physical therapy could not find the cause of his headaches and pain which turned his ears, neck and shoulders from a light red to maroon coloring. His pain was so unbeaarable and he went to the doctor (of which he had signed for them to NOT prescribe ANY medications without going through me (his mom) first) and they prescribed clonazepam to him without my knowledge.

On April 10th, 2010 he got 0xycontin from another NA person and when my son was not able to be woke up within an hour of taking this combo, the people with him did not call 911 for 10 hours. By then my son was not breathing and was blue in color, they said. A police officer and EMT's were able to bring him back but then he went into cardiac arrest - 3 times they did CPR on him. The lack of oxygen to his brain caused both sides of his brain to be damaged and he was in a coma. Machines were keeping his kidney's going and a respirator was keeping him breathing. The doctors told us on the first day he wouldn't survive and if he did, he would always be on a vent and 24/7 dialysis. They told us he would never come out of the coma. He would never open his eyes, hear, see, speak or breath on his own again. We refused to believe it and prayed and used positive energy and positive sound to try and bring him back to us.

On April 15, 2010, he died.

The hospital staff and dr's and the funeral home and the cemetery all told us that they are seeing this type of death A LOT! Not every few months, but nearly daily they are trying to save someone who has taken this combo and the hospital staff said they had NEVER SEEN ANYONE SURVIVE this!

Don't think that your dr has YOUR best interest at heart. They have other patients and they just want to get through the visit quickly and they do not care about you at all. Our dr had been his dr for 8 years and she knew his history and yet she prescribed clonazepam. She knew he had almost died a year earlier from Oxycontin. He didn't have clonazepam then and by the grace of God, he pulled through last year, only for her to give him the drug that would definitely kill him if he went out on the streets and got Oxycontin again.

My son was married with a 5 year old daughter and a 2 year old son.

He was such a large part of our family and although he was going to NA meetings (he had been to his last one just 2 days prior) he mixed the wrong drugs and died because of it.

THIS COMBINATION IS DEFINATELY A DEATH SENTENCE!

Hug your kids and tell them daily you love them. You don't know what they may be doing, especially when they are adults. If you suspect your child is doing drugs...GET THEM HELP IMMEDIATELY...DON'T TAKE "NO" FOR AN ANSWER. Have them Busted if you have to...at least in jail they are still alive!
