Didn't see your question....

Xanax (alprazolam) and Tegretol (carbamazapine) use the same liver enzyme (3A4). Carbamazapine induces that enzyme (increases the rate of function). So, one could predict that the Xanax would have a slightly weaker effect, and might wear off a little quicker. Nothing adverse, in particular.
