It may take a while to adjust to the Xanax. It's a pretty strong med. I have no experience with the extended release, so maybe it is more potent as well?

I assume since it's extended release, it comes in a capsule so you can't cut it in half... so after another week (max) you still haven't adjusted to it, I would call your pdoc to see if you can get it in a lower dose, or switch to regular Xanax.

I'm happy it's working for you tho
I hope you just adjust to the dose.


I clipped my cats' claws yesterday, too!
Buddy and Dottie are a breeze, and maybe take 5 minutes each, but Rocky fights me like a bear. It took me 4 tries to get all his done. I felt bad doing it cuz he's not well, but I skipped him last time around, so his nails were really long. He seems to be happy I cut them tho.
