Its not advisable to take restyl for longer duration. since you are free from symptoms try to withdraw the restyl.

I would suggest you to gradually stop using alprazolan(restyl).It has huge addictive potential(may be even more than alcohol).It can cause variety of side effects like memory loss,depression etc..
