Some considerations for people taking alprazolam include:
Alprazolam comes in tablet form. It is usually taken by mouth two or three times daily.
Alprazolam can be taken with or without food. It the drug bothers your stomach, try taking it with food.
For the medication to work properly, it must be taken as prescribed. Alprazolam may cause serious problems if you take it at higher dosages or for a longer period of time than your healthcare provider recommends (see Xanax Addiction).
