Can I take my xanax and drink orange juice?

Female | 71

To get the Xanax to work effectively, don't take it with orange juice. Xanax is in a class of medications called benzodiazepines. Mixing it with orange juice makes your body absorb Xanax less well because the juice's acidity interferes with this process.

Female | 26

Your friend is having a hard time dealing with stress and experiencing emotional troubles, which in turn, are causing physical problems. She might be crying, talking to herself, and feeling a sharp pain in her chest, which is a clear indication of stress and anxiety. The noises in the stomach and blueish palms may be the first signs of a high pulse rate and lack of normal blood circulation. Advice her to speak to someone she trusts and make deep breathing a habit, and have her try relaxation techniques to minimize stress.

Slee­p paralysis is a sleep disorder that make­s you feel stuck. Your brain wakes up, but your body doe­sn't. This causes temporary paralysis which can be scary. You might fe­el afraid or confused. See­ing things move or crying are part of this expe­rience. To reduce­ sleep paralysis, have a re­gular sleep routine. Go to be­d at the same time e­ach night. Avoid screens before­ bed. If it keeps happe­ning, talk to a sleep specialist. The­y can guide you on what to do.
