What Is a Blue Xanax Bar?
Like other forms of Xanax, blue Xanax bars have all the benefits of alprazolam. It mainly calms people down during episodes of panic attacks and anxiety. The only difference between other Xanax forms and blue Xanax bars is the dosage.
In particular, a blue Xanax pill labeled XANAX 1.0 contains 1 milligram (mg) of Xanax.
When a doctor diagnoses an individual with one of the issues Xanax can help with, the doctor often starts with a small dose, typically .25mg to begin with. After the patient’s brain chemistry becomes accustomed to Xanax, the prescription dosage gets adjusted to get the desired effects and control.
Blue Xanax bars are often spread at a maximum of 4 mg per day. They can be spread across three or four doses, depending on the doctor’s order.
When blue Xanax bars are taken orally as intended, the effects typically set in within one hour. The concentration of the substance in one’s bloodstream peaks in up to two hours.
However, when people abuse blue Xanax bars, they often do not take it orally. It’s because doing so makes the drug work more slowly. The method of intake also mediates the drug’s effects.
Hence, most people who abuse blue Xanax bars crush it into a fine powder. Then, they snort it. Doing so allows the effects of the drug to set in much quicker, typically in a few minutes.
Uses of Blue Xanax Bar
Like most benzodiazepines, blue Xanax bars increase the potency of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that inhibits connections between neurons.
This process sedates one’s nervous system by suppressing neural hyperactivity, which causes anxiety and panic. As a result, anyone who takes a blue Xanax bar feels relaxed and drowsy. In some cases, blue Xanax bars can cause a person to fall asleep. For this reason, many people use blue Xanax bars to successfully recover from insomnia.
