Alprazolam (Xanax) half life* is: Immediate release: 11.2 hours; Extended release: 10.7-15.8 hours. Your answer depends on the dosage you are taking. We have no way of knowing that, but we would strongly suggest that you not drink until most of it is out of your system.
You should know that alprazolam withdrawal can take several days to a couple of week, and there is danger of seizures and blood pressure spikes that can cause strokes if it is withdrawn quickly without medical support. The same is true of alcohol.
*Half life is the time it takes your body to metabolize 1/2 of the drug that is in your system. In the case of Xanax, the metabolites are also active drugs, so it takes much longer for your body to reach a safe level.
Drink alcohol
why drink alcohol in the first place. it'll be easier to stop if it's not ok
No you really should'nt drink alcohol whike taking any medication,but if you like to have a drink, maybe a shot an hour before won't hurt.
I had one beer 21hours ago is there still alcohol in my system and can a urine test detect the one alcohol drink from 21 hours later
Speak to your doctor before drinking any alcohol. It is possible that small amounts of alcohol might be OK. Alcohol in large quantities would be tantamount to suicide. Alcohol compromises the cardiovascular system, and yours has already demonstrated its unreliability.
Yes Chinese do drink alcohol because i have been to china before
That's stupid.
Yes, but not shortly before a colonoscopy.
Beer or ale
Only if it is legal where you are.
You will have to wait until the 20 mg of Dilaudid has left your system before you can drink alcohol. Usually it will take about 8 hours for any medicines to leave the system.
No food or drink will remove alcohol from your body, only time will do this.
