...Xanax...?
Answer:
let him sleep it out.
dont bug him right now.
its a very mellow high so dont ruin it for him.
good luck :)
How about calling 911 and getting him checked out at the hospital?
If you are concerned then call posion control they should be able to help. I hope by you saying do not criticize you know how stupid this is . . .
I am not sure, but I would call poison control and ask them. (Or you could call the local emergency room).
he'll be fine in the morning.. it is a nerve pill or tranquilizer. He should have given the first one time to work though. If he takes them all the time it may take more for him. They are addictive though and can cause withdrawls if taken too much too long.
quite a large dose.if it is not something he doess all the time,his tolerence is low.SO if he doesnt do it often,keep an eye on him.Watch & see if he quits breathing...NOw if he does this often,he'll sleep awhile.watch him..
well depends how often he takes them - but he has definately takes more then he should have - he will sleep for probably 7-14 hours - he will not be able to drive home tonight - if you want him out of your house - call someone to come get him and carry him out - if he seems to be having trouble breathing call the ambulance - otherwise he just has to sleep them off - and he will be out of it for a while when he wakes up too - and no offense - find a new man this one has a serious problem - xanax is perscribed for depression and anxiety - so either he has mental issues - or he bought them illeghally and is a drug addict
I think they come in 25, 50 or 100 mg tabs...so Im not sure of the dose amount. I would check to make sure it is really xanax...hopefully he hasnt taken something that is a fake and will make him sick. If he is incoherent and cannot wake up to fairly alert, then he should go to the er. If he just cant walk or move around well, but is "all there" mentally, then I would suggest watching him and letting him sleep it off for a while, no more pills. Alcohol can also make the effect worse, but pls check the pill, the dose you said does not sound like xanax.
Xanax is a sedative and it will take some time for it to wear off. I take only 1mg for panic attacks, so 4mg (to me) is kinda high, but everyone is different. Shouldn't be a problem..just let him sleep it off.
Let him know that Xanax is very addictive with very, very bad withdrawl symptoms.
I am 25 and 115 lbs and have a perscrption for 1 mg and that knocks me out but that is me. This stuff is a individual thing. 4 mg at once is not a OD situation however if he is not suppost to be taking 4mg's at once I would worry why he took them. I would keep an eye on hum and let him sleep it off. Don't try to move him. He may become upset that he is awake and get mean and not even know it. I have had that happen to me.
I would however talk to him about why he took them and if it is not something you understand or are into you may want to have him explain to you why he takes them.
I certainly don't want to make light of this, but it doesn't sound like a desperate situation. Xanax is a tranquilizer, and often prescribed for sleep. Two pills aren't dangerous.
I'm not here to question why he took the two pills, but to help you rest easier. Let him sleep it off. Expect he may have a 'hangover' effect in the morning.
Hold your tongue, until it wears off to talk to him about this. Try not to be accusing, but actually try to see WHY this happened. Was he just trying to get high? or is something deeper wrong?
Let him sleep it off...4mg of Xanax never killed anyone, especially a healthy young man.
If this sort of behavior is strange and alarming to you, you may want to reconsider your choice in boyfriends. This one, like all of them, is not likely to change just because you wish he would.
On the other hand, if he has any Xanax left, try popping one yourself. They are really relaxing with the ability to turn a bad made-for-cable movie into something funny and interesting. Just make sure you won't be needing to drive anywhere for about 12 hours and don't try any tight-rope walking or flaming-sword tricks until late tomorrow morning after 2-3 cups of good strong coffee!
Xanax is a medication that belongs to the group of tranquilizers. The active ingredient is Alpralozam. (just some extra info for you) 4mg of xanax is a nice dose, for just about anyone, and that is why he's asleep. It would tell me that since he is asleep, he's not used to that high of a dose, which is telling me that he is abusing the medication. Xanax is suppose to calm someone down and put them in a tranquil mood, hence the word tranquilizer. The most common doses are .5 mg, 1 mg, and even up to 2 mg for people who have been on the medication for a while. I have had xanax before to help me sleep at night for insomnia reasons. It sounds like to me that he is using it for more than just helping him sleep. If he took 4 mg, it sounds like he might have a small problem. Next time you talk to him, you might wanna ask him why he took 4 mg. If he says he was stressed out you can tell him that 1 mg probably would of been enough to relax him. -- I hope you got something out of that --
