Could someone please tell me how much zanax withdraw i will--- i take around 2 bars a week in the following way-- take half a bar for 3 or 4 days in a row and then no xanax for 3 or 4 days in a row---My doctor does not know i am taking xanax and i want to stop--i am prescribed 50 mg zoloft--900 mg triliptal--300 mg seroquil and 24 mg. suboxone per day ----the only thing i take the xanax for is sleep, but i have been hooked on it before and hope i am not now---i have going thru this routine of taking half a bar for 3 days straight and no xanax at all for 3 or 4 days for about 4 months...always pass my drug test somehow--take it every 2 weeks---PLEASE HELP-Thanks

right, well that is a very small dose, so coming off wouldnt be too bad, you might feel a bit jittery, and not sleep so well for a short while, but it wouldnt last too long, and you are right, its a short acting benzo, so would be out of system fairly quick, like 48/ 60 hours, hope is of some help ,

hi, you posted this earlier, i did answer but its a very difficult question, as i previously said , you are on antidepressant, and drugs for bi polar, and also suboxone, so its quite a big mixture, is the sub for a heroin or methadone withdrwal, and i dont know what a "bar"is, i can help about benzo withdrawal, but im not sure , when taken with the other things, and is it the xanax they test you for, i really hope someone with more experience can help you, and if you can explain more i will try to, best wishes,
