Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you are wondering for how long does Xanax stay in the body . Well this depend upon many factors like body wight , metabolic rate , diet and intake of fluids . The dose your are taking is low dose It may take upto week to get out of your body . I would suggest you to to take plenty of water and citrus fruits. This would result in early elimination of drug from system. Exercise and green tea would also fasten the metabolism and will flush the drug out of the body rapidly.


Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
