Benzodiazepines are only indicated when the disorder is severe, incapacitating or subjects the individual to extreme stress.

2. What you need to know before starting to take Alprazolam Neuraxpharm

Do not takeAlprazolam Neuraxpharm:

  • if you are allergic to alprazolam, other benzodiazepine medications, or any of the other components of this medication (listed in section 6).
  • if you have a condition called "myasthenia gravis" where you have very weak and tired muscles.
  • if you have severe chest problems or difficulty breathing (for example, emphysema or chronic bronchitis).
  • if you have "sleep apnea": this is a condition where your breathing becomes irregular, even stops for short periods, while you are asleep.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medication

  • be aware that the effect of the tablets will be reduced after using them for several weeks (tolerance)
  • are concerned about physical and mental dependence caused by alprazolam. If you do not want to stop treatment, you may have mental dependence on this medication. If there is physical dependence, stopping treatment is accompanied by withdrawal symptoms (see section 3, If you interrupt treatment with Alprazolam Neuraxpharm). The risk of dependence is higher as the dose and duration of treatment increase in patients with a history of alcohol or drug abuse or if several benzodiazepines are combined. Therefore, treatment should be as short as possible.
  • are pregnant, think you may be, intend to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding (also see the sections on "Pregnancy" and "Breastfeeding" for more information).
  • benzodiazepines and related products should be used with caution in elderly patients, due to the risk of sedation and/or muscle weakness that can cause falls, often with serious consequences in this population.
  • have a history of alcohol, drug, or narcotic abuse
  • have had memory disorders. Memory loss usually occurs several hours after ingestion of the product. To reduce the risk, ensure you can have uninterrupted sleep of 7-8 hours after taking the medication.
  • have unexpected reactions, for example, restlessness, agitation, irritability, aggression, delirium, rage, nightmares, hallucinations, psychosis, inappropriate behavior, delirium, and other behavioral disorders. These unexpected reactions occur more frequently in children and elderly patients.
  • have chronic lung disease
  • are using alcohol and sedative medications concurrently
  • have severe depression (suicide risk)
  • have been diagnosed with liver or kidney problems
  • have been diagnosed with any psychiatric disorder
  • have a certain type of glaucoma.

Some medications may cause unwanted effects if taken at the same time as alprazolam. If you are taking other medications at the same time, this may affect the effectiveness of the treatment. In this case, your doctor may adjust your medication or dosage instructions.

These medications include:

- medications to treat fungal infections (for example, ketoconazole, itraconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole)

- sleeping pills, antipsychotics, or anesthetics

- painkillers (for example, dextropropoxyphene or opioids)

- medications used to treat depression (for example, St. John's Wort, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, sertraline, nefazodone, imipramine, and desipramine)

- anxiolytics (used to treat anxiety)

- medications to treat schizophrenia (for example, clozapine)

- medications to treat epilepsy (for example, carbamazepine, phenytoin)

- sedating antihistamines (used to treat allergies and sedation as a side effect)

- oral contraceptives based on hormones (the "pill")

- antibiotics (for example, erythromycin, troleandomycin, rifampicin, clarithromycin, telithromycin)

- medications used to treat heart disease (for example, digoxin)

- medications that lower blood pressure (for example, diltiazem)

Alprazolam Neuraxpharm with food, drink, and alcohol

Take the tablet with a glass of water or another liquid.

Alcohol

Do not drink alcohol while taking Alprazolam Neuraxpharm.

Alcohol potentiates the sedative effect of alprazolam.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you are pregnant, think you may be, intend to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medication.

Alprazolam should not be used during pregnancy unless your doctor considers it absolutely necessary for the treatment of the mother.

No adequate experiences are available on the use of alprazolam in pregnant women. Do not take Alprazolam if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, unless your doctor considers it strictly indicated. Human observations have indicated that the active substance alprazolam may be harmful to the fetus (greater risk of malformations (cleft palate). If you are pregnant or planning to be, consult your doctor about the possibility of interrupting treatment. If you are taking alprazolam until birth, inform your doctor, as your newborn may have some withdrawal symptoms when born. High-dose use at the end of pregnancy or during delivery may cause the newborn to have low body temperature, cause respiratory depression, muscle tone decrease, and poor feeding (floppy baby syndrome).

Do not breastfeed while taking alprazolam. There is a risk that it may affect the baby.

Driving and operating machinery

Due to its sedative, muscle relaxant, and sleep-inducing effects, alprazolam may affect your performance in traffic and other tasks that require special alertness, especially at the beginning of treatment and if sleep is insufficient. Therefore, do not drive or operate machinery during treatment with Alprazolam Neuraxpharm.

Indication

Initial dose*

Dose range

Anxiety andanxiety associated with depression

From 0.25 mg to 0.5 mg per day in three doses

From 0.5 to 4 mg per day, in equal doses

Anxiety disorders

From 0.5 to 1 mg at bedtime

The dose should be adjusted according to the patient's response, with dose increases not exceeding 1 mg per day every three or four days. Additional doses may be added to achieve a 3 or 4 times daily schedule. The average dose, found in multicenter clinical studies, was 5.7+2.3 mg per day, and some patients required 10 mg per day.

Patients with advanced age or debilitating diseases

0.25 mg two or three times a day

From 0.5 to 0.75 mg per day; the dose may be increased gradually if necessary and tolerated.

* If adverse reactions occur, the dose should be reduced.

Patients with renal and hepatic insufficiency

Care should be taken when establishing the initial dose in patients with renal and hepatic insufficiency. In patients with severe hepatic insufficiency, treatment with alprazolam, like other benzodiazepines, is contraindicated (see section 4.3) due to the associated risk of encephalopathy.

Patients with respiratory insufficiency

It is recommended to administer lower doses to patients with chronic respiratory insufficiency due to the risk of respiratory depression.

Use in children and adolescents

Alprazolam Neuraxpharm is not recommended for children and adolescents under 18 years old.

The notch is only for breaking and swallowing and not for dividing into equal doses.

If you take more Alprazolam Neuraxpharm than you should

In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, consult the Toxicological Information Service, phone 91 562 04 20 indicating the medication and the amount ingested. Activated charcoal should be administered as an emergency medication if the patient is conscious.

Carry this box with you if you seek medical help.

A alprazolam overdose causes intense fatigue, ataxia (lack of coordination), and decreased level of consciousness. It is also possible to have decreased blood pressure, loss of consciousness, and respiratory depression. Alcohol and other central nervous system depressants increase the undesirable effects of alprazolam.

If you forgot to take Alprazolam Neuraxpharm

If you forgot to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is time for your next dose. Do not take a double dose to compensate for a missed dose.

Treatment duration

Alprazolam Neuraxpharm tablets are only used for short-term treatments (not more than 12 weeks). Normally, you will not be given a prescription for more than 4 weeks, and your doctor will check on you periodically during this time.

If you interrupt treatment with Alprazolam Neuraxpharm

Alprazolam can cause physical and psychological dependence. The risk is higher with high doses and prolonged treatment periods, in patients with a history of alcohol or drug abuse, or if several benzodiazepines are combined.

Abruptly stopping treatment causes withdrawal symptoms (e.g., headache, muscle pain, intense anxiety, tension, restlessness, confusion, irritability, and in severe cases, depersonalization, derealization, hyperacusis, numbness, tingling in the extremities, hypersensitivity to light, sound, and touch, hallucinations, and seizures). Withdrawal symptoms may appear several days after treatment ends.

For this reason,Alprazolam Neuraxpharm treatment should not be stopped abruptly; the dose should be reduced gradually according to your doctor's instructions.

If you have any other questions about the use of this medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
