What Is Farmapram Alprazolam, and What Is It Used for?

 

In the U.S, Farmapram is known as Alprazolam, its generic name. The drug is usually sold under the brand name Xanax. Farmapram is the common name for the drug in Mexico. Pfizer, a U.S-based company, supplies the white rectangular pill sold as Xanax. Farmapram contains the same ingredient as Xanax but is produced by IFA Celtics in Mexico.

Farmapram Alprazolam belongs to a class of medicines known as benzodiazepines. Benzodiazepines enhance the effects of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) in the brain. GABA is a neurotransmitter that reduces your brain’s nerve activity.

Nerves transmit messages to the brain and other body parts using neurotransmitters. When the amount of GABA is reduced, this means that your nerves send more signals and make you hyperactive. The reverse happens when the amount of GABA is increased.

In the U.S, the DEA considers Farmapram Alprazolam a Schedule IV Controlled Substance. This classification is because of the risk of addiction, diversion, and misuse associated with the drug. Like other benzodiazepines, the drug has a risk of abuse, withdrawal reactions, and physical dependence because of its effect on the brain.

To help you understand what Farmapram Alprazolam is and its use, here are a few guidelines.

Uses of Farmapram Alprazolam

Benzodiazepines like Alprazolam are used to manage issues attributed to excessive activity of your brain’s nerves. By enhancing the effects of GABA, the number of neurotransmitters available to your brain decreases. This means fewer nerve signals are sent so that you will calm down.

Farmapram Alprazolam is primarily used and approved by the FDA for the management of two conditions. These include:

• Anxiety disorders
• Panic disorders

When Farmapram Alprazolam is used to manage these conditions, users are calm and free from worry. In these cases, the drug is renowned for its quick onset of action. Its effects are felt within half an hour after taking the medication, and they can last for about six hours.

Farmapram alprazolam is also used as an off-label drug for the management of:

• Depression
• Premenstrual syndrome
• Ringing in the ear

The above off-label uses of Farmapram Alprazolam are those that the FDA has not approved, and they are not on the package label of the drug. Even so, doctors might have reported good effects in their patients when using Alprazolam to manage the conditions.
