Just keep an eye out for repiratory problems, thats what will begin happening if he OD's. I would seriously convince him to see a therapist. It's not healthy to be taking those everyday, especially at that dosage. |
Negatory, I'm about 99.8% sure Xanax does not come in anything higher than a 2mg dosage per pill, which is what the long white bars are.
Confirm anyone?
It's true that the amount he'd have to take to overdose is pretty high, though the alcohol does lower it.
The thing I'd be more concerned about considering the situation would be the potential for addiction. If he's taking more than his prescribed amount on a regular basis, seems likely he'll run out of his script before it's time to get more, and withdrawal could be a bitch and a half.
