1	Verwon Says: [Moderator] Tuesday, 5/6/2008 1:30:02 PM Sorry, I have removed the incorrect information to avoid future confusion. Xanax DOES react with grapefruit, it increases the concentration of it in your body, which can result in your having to high a dose of the Xanax in your body for too long a period of time. http://www.prescriptiondrug-info.com/drug_information_online.asp?title=Xanax+XR&page=1007167&ad=true#Food_and_drug_interactions
2	Virtualguy Says: Report Abuse Tuesday, 4/21/2009 8:30:13 AM Grapefruit juice does interact with alprazolam (Xanax), but not to a great degree. The interaction typically is NOT considered dangerous for normal low to moderate dosage users. When is question, simply call the pharmacy that filled your prescription and ask. Or, ask your doctor.
3	Helper Says: Report Abuse Saturday, 7/11/2009 5:56:40 PM think of grapefruit juice as an enzyme highway system for your body that just built more roads and since there is more roads to the brain, more can be metabolized. Rather than taking a bunch to get the same effect. Kind of like a poor mans way of increasing their dosage. But remember there are also drugs that would do the exact opposite effect with the 450 enzyme rendering the drug ineffective. Thats what I hope and you hope your doctor look at when they prescribe certain antibiotics etc and the big words here: cytochrome isoenzymes CYP #(letter)#, many grouped categories.

I looked online for pictures of generic Xanax and I saw what I have. I took 1mg and it knocked me out for 4 hours. What about the calming effect and the ephoria feelings everyone is talking.about
