"this drug did very little for me. my doctor prescribed it as an alternative to xanax until a full clinical work up could be done. as a moderate to heavy drinker, he did not advise me that this is used to pull people from the disease. i don&#039;t feel like i have issues with alcoholism but it really messed me up when mixing the two. felt stoned or comatosed. taking the drug sober did almost nothing anyway except when i take 2 or 3 at a time and still it does not release the anxiety i have."
