The prescription drug Xanax works by affecting GABA Receptors within your brain, causing a decrease in anxiety, anxiousness, worry and neuro-transmitter speeds. Because Xanax directly affects brain chemicals which affect how you "feel", it is a highly addictive drug and prolonged use can lead to dependance. Xanax is normally taken on an "as needed" basis, when panic or anxiety is to much to deal with.
Xanax is available in 0.25mg, 0.5mg, 1mg, and 2mg pills. Xanax 2mg is available in a bar form, which is the most popular form of this drug. Xanax XR is another form of this benzo, and is a slow release version of the same drug. It is used for those who suffer long periods of anxiety.
