> I agree completely-Xanax XR seems like a different drug to me, again showing how important formulation is to a drug. I think Xanax IR is an excellent drug, and at 0.25 mg and not taking it on weekends, it's possible you'll never become dependent-but if you do, no big deal. I really didn't like Xanax XR at all-it made me sleepy, too, and didn't seem to have the antidepressant effect I find it has in combination with an AD. Summary: IMO, forget XR and leave things alone; they seem to be working. Remember the phrase "it worked until I fixed it" :>}
Yeh dude, forget Adderall XR, Xanax XR..the IR formulations are or appear to be much more effective. I guess because of the fact that the concentrations of the drug in the XR formulations build slowly throughout the day, so you don't even notice that the drug is working half the time. It's too subtle.
