> I see what you mean, but still disagree. Not only have I missed a few days and STILL not had any w/drawal AT ALL, Xanax within around 55 hrs is completely out of the system....
That is what I'm thinking of. It may be days after that where the withdrawal symptoms kick in.
>people have purpoted that missing a single dose, even WHEN a large quantity of Xanax molecules are in the bloodstream, can cause a huge w/drawal.
This I haven't heard about, but wonder if that may be due to the generic vs name brand quality issues.
> Maybe in some, but in others there is no withdrawal, period. And after reading many (i mean literally houndreds of anecdotes) on the subject, the majority of people have NO problem stopping Xanax, even if it necissitates a slow tapering period.
Well, yes, if it is going to be stopped, then tapering is reported to be the safe way.
> Cheers for your reply, obviously we all have different opinions, which is great!
Your report sounded a bit over-optimisitic, so I was concerned about someone misinterpreting it and proceeding in an unsafe direction.
