alprazolam

Sold under the trade name Xanax, Alprazolam was patented in 1971, and is most commonly used in short term management of anxiety disorders, specifically panic disorder or generalized anxiety disorder. In addition, it is also used to treat chemotherapy-induced nausea, together with other treatments. When someone takes Alprazolam or other benzos, they stimulate the inhibiting neurotransmitter responsible for how calm or relaxed we feel, which is called GABA. GABA is meant to be our natural tranquilizer, but if you have anxiety or panic disorders, Alprazolam works by binding to these receptors and stimulating its production. As for the common side effects of this medication, they include sleepiness, depression, headaches, feeling tired, dry mouth, and memory problems. It is worth mentioning that this drug is only recommended for use during pregnancy when there are no alternatives and the benefit outweighs the risk, especially during the first trimester of pregnancy
