About me: Xanax causes extreme dependence. Xanax is a form
of benzodiazepine. Benzodiazepines are a class of
drugs used to help people who suffer from anxiety
and insomnia. This group of drugs is the
depressants of the central nervous system. This
means that they slow down the action of the
nervous system. In addition, benzodiazepines are
used to treat seizures and relieve the symptoms of
alcohol withdrawal syndrome. This class of drugs
is the most widely used of all psychoactive
substances. Xanax acts quickly, causing a calming
effect, but is also one of the most frequent drugs
misused. When taken with other central nervous
system depressants, it can be deadly.
