Like all medications, Xanax is associated with potential side effects. Common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, and impaired coordination. Long-term use or misuse of Xanax can lead to dependency and withdrawal symptoms if abruptly discontinued.
Xanax has a relatively fast onset of action, with effects felt within 1 to 2 hours after ingestion. However, its duration of action is relatively short, typically lasting a few hours. This may require multiple doses throughout the day for continuous anxiety relief.
