Xanax and grape juice

[lblanchard]

This might be a dumb question but I take .5 mg Xanax at night and have been for about 4 months. My chiropractor told me to drink some grape Juice bc of cramps in my legs. I didn't think about it when I drank like 8 oz of it when I took my Xanax. I'm just wondering how much of an affect it will have on the Xanax. If anyone knows the effects that it can have I would love to know as I now am have anxiety about something bad happening with the Xanax bc of this. Thanks for you answers

Ummm.... no effects?

It's just juice.... I have no idea how it would cause any negative side effects...

It's grapefruit juice that can cause interactions with some medications, not grape juice. You'll be totally fine :)

The grapefruit uses the same metabolic pathway so the xanax will take longer to metabolize and it concentration might/will get a tad higher because of that. That's all. Alankay.
