Updated

I have a freind that has taken 12 xanex bars he has taken 8 in the past. He is very troubled and I want to know how much can a body take when they are use to taking so many at a time.

here is the deal. benzos react wtih your GABA receptors. and taking that many bars is NOT good for your brain chemistry because it alters it. Meaning your GABA receptors wont fire liek you use to due to the receptor expecting some sort of drug. So if no drugs come than the GABA receptors cant produce naturally the right dose. Same with other respectors and drugs. TAKING SO MANY IS VERY DANGEROUS. you make like 6+ bars and do some heron or do some oxy along with a couple shots and your friend could end up dead. That is a fact, benzos, opaites and alcohol combined are killer. So be smart kids, ive been through it just like many peopel in this site. drug addiction, and its a long struggle but you dont make the effort to get your life stragiht then it gets worse, more stressful, and infinetly harder to stop and BE NORMAL again. cus isnt that what we all want? good luck everyone. I hope that you dont know drugs to be yourself. god bless

Generally, the maximum daily dose is limited to 4mgs, but in severe cases, doctors can prescribed up to 10mgs a day.

What dosage is he currently taking?

Xanax is a benzodiazepine, so the FDA warns that it does carry the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, mood changes, and headache.

Ref: Xanax Information

If he is taking high amounts, and suddenly runs out, he risks experiencing withdrawal, and has an increased risk of experiencing seizures. I lost a very good friend, last year, due to such abuse, he was only 50.

Is he on any other medications?

Sorry to read about your friend. I was 50 when I spent a week in the hospital for a xanax withdrawal. Most people don't overdose on Xanax, yet have life threatening problems when discontinuing it. Most users have no idea
