BiographyAlprazolam, also referred to by the brand name Xanax, is a medicine from the benzodiazepine pharmacological class. It is mostly used as a treatment for anxiety and panic disorders.
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter, is how alprazolam works by boosting its actions in the brain. GABA aids in lowering too active brain activity, promoting feelings of calm and relaxation. Alprazolam can reduce anxiety symptoms by enhancing the effects of GABA.
