Re: Xanax- silicon dioxide

[Guest guest]

Rogene, I have been taking Xanax for many years. What could silicone dioxide do to me?? A nurse told me that Xanax could make me fat, but no one has told me that it could be a problem. I should know that anything with silicone in it would be a problem. This is the only drug that seems to help me with my pain! When I did the walks, it put me back in bed, but it was worth the pain.

Thank you for sending out this great information...love you......Lea

Lea,

I found the website that lists the ingredients:

I've been taking Xanax, too, it helps with the brain fog, and yes it

made me gain weight. I'm going to try weaning myself off of it soon

and hopefully the brain fog will be manageable and the weight will

drop off. Before I started taking it I had lost weight (because of

the implants), so I'm curious to see if I lose the added lbs.

Xanax is a benzodiazapine, and highly addictive.

Lea,

That sounds good to me! I've been taking it since explant a year

ago, because my fatigue was really bad. I'd like to wean myself off

of it, I'm thinking between Christmas and New Year's I'll start

cutting the dose in half, instead of a whole pill twice a day, I'll

take a half pill twice a day and see how I do (I'll check with my

doctor to make sure that's not too dramatic a cut, but I took it for

about 6 months a number of years ago and I didn't have a problem

cutting the dose in half as I worked myself off of it).

Rogene, yes I have had many notes regarding Xanax. Some were like me, they used it for pain, but I plan on coming off this drug in the near future. It has really helped me over the years. There is no drug that comes without some side effects. A dear friend told me that Coumadin would kill me, she wants me to take herbs instead...I am afraid to come off this drug.

Take care and thank you for all that you are doing...love you.....Lea

Rogene's right, Lea...

I've gone off Xanax before; I was taking 3 mg total/day, and my

psychiatrist had me going down only 0.225 mg/day, with an interval of

6 weeks. So, down 0.225 mg for 6 weeks, then down another 0.225 mg

for six more weeks, etc. That would be 6 week intervals X 4 or 36

weeks which would be 9 months. It took 9 months to go off the 3

mg/day entirely. It doesn't matter how long it takes you to get off.

But if you cut it too much, too quick, it can result in seizures.

Absolutely we must listen to our own bodies. You and I are similar in

our diagnoses. I've got Lupus with CNS involvement. I like my new

rheumatologist; I think we can work together against this difficult

disease.

Stay close, too, love,

having a painful flare. My rheumatologist called me this morning, and

he told me that my bones are stable, but he warned me about climbing

on ladders or chairs. He has always told me that I have a Lupus flush

on my face; however, he claims that I do not have Lupus, but my family

doctor claims that I do! I know that I do, too.

hi Dear Lea,

are you going to try and get a new rheumatolgist now that he doesn't

seem to believe the Lupus diagnosis? Or are you stuck with this

one?

XOXO
