this is very common. i have no idea of his situation, but the dose may need to be bumped down to at least 2mgXR, or maybe a 3mg regular Xanax Bar.

Alprazolam is the active ingredient in the medication Xanax, which is a name with which you may be more familiar.

As Travis said, yes, those can be normal side effects, it could be that the person is on too high of a dosage, or they are just new to taking it, and their body isn't used to the medication.

The FDA also wants that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, irritability, and dry mouth.

How long have they been taking it, and what dose are they taking?
