question about xanax?

[magen7984]

I have a question about xanax. I have been taking xanax for about 2 years. But i only take it as needed. I probley only average 5 pills a month and they are the lowest dose .25 milgram. I have herd that you can have a seizure if you stop taking it would that still be true for me? or no because i dont take it every day and never experience any withdrawl because i only take so few? are the sezures for people who take alot of them a day or are dependent on them??

In your case, the risk of seizure is zero. The risk of seizure only applies to chronic daily use, and when daily use of the drug is abruptly withdrawn.

You are using the Xanax correctly (as needed), and (5), 0.25 mg tablets per month is not overuse by any means. 0.25 mg is an extremely low dose.

Used in this manner, you will NEVER develop tolerance or dependency to the effects of Xanax.
