Some side effects with
Xanax, while occurring infrequently, are potentially serious and should be reported immediately to your healthcare provider. These include, but are not limited to:
- Depression (or worsening of existing depression)
- Lightheadedness, dizziness, or fainting
- Problems with balance or falling down
- Suicidal thoughts
- Anxiety, excitation, or agitation
- Hostility, aggression, or rage
- Hallucinations
- Yellow eyes or skin (jaundice)
- Signs of an allergic reaction, including unexplained rash, hives, itching, and unexplained swelling.
It is possible that you may experience some or none of the Xanax side effects listed in this article. Unfortunately, there is no way for your healthcare provider to know beforehand if you will have side effects from a medicine that you have never tried. Therefore, make sure to let your healthcare provider know if you develop any side effects while taking Xanax or if something "just does not seem right." While it may not be a Xanax side effect, your healthcare provider will be able to diagnose and treat the problem.
