I suppose it depends on how your doc has written the prescription...what is the dosage your pdoc prescribed?

From:
http://www.psychtreatment.com/xanax_dosage.htm

Symptoms of Xanax overdosage may include:
Confusion, coma, impaired coordination, sleepiness, slowed reaction time Xanax overdosage alone or in combination with alcohol can be fatal.

It seems like a lot, did you work up a tolerance to a lower dosage?

You mean taking 2 mg four times per day, right?

I was taking that much ten years ago when my anxiety and PTSD were severe.

I took them all at one time. I was upset. I am going to make a new thread about it.

That is quite a lot of xanax to take at once!
