Hi lybrate-user, alprazolam is a very addictive drug. It can cause agitation, tension,anxiety and sleeplessness on suddenly stopping it. It is a dependence producing drug. I suggest you take your friend to a neaby neuropsychiatrist. He will definitely help your friend .Wish him a speedy recovery, best of luck.

Take medicines prescribed by your doctor regularly. I suggest you to go for yoga and meditation for the same. Its our body. And hence it knows better how to deal with any problem. No outer medicine , therapy will work if your inner zeal won't work. Remember over dependence on any medicine makes you their slave.
Get well soon

Alpraxolam is anti anxiety. Fo naltima will not help. But analysis of anxiety - why you get anxious or why only you get anxious. Why not all in the same situation. What is different in you. Like thinking pattern analysis or past painful event analysis. Will help you to get rid of anxiety n alprazolam on the other hand you can add relaxation. Technique if not a ble to get rid of then add RTMS therapy (googleit) for permanent cure of alprazolam addiciton. I think.

Lybrate-user,
You shouldn’t take medications without adequate assessment and advise of psychiatrist. If you continue to feel depressed despite the antidepressant then dosage may be increased or the medication can be reviewed and changed. Alprazolam is a short acting benzodiazepine and has been used to treat anxiety though preferably not long term. So I advise review and assessment by the psychiatrist of symptoms and medications.
