Default Xanax Tip #1: Consume Grapefruit Juice

I know many of you already are very aware of the specific enzyme that inhibits the break-down of alprazolam in your liver in grapefruit juice but I'm gonna say it anyway for those who don't. Firstly, you get some 100% grapefruit juice and ingest approx. 30-45 minutes before primary ingestion of required xanax, it makes quite the difference. I've noticed also that many grapefruit juices out there are 30% or less juice, this is a waste of time. The best stuff is always the freshest (also the most expensive) so if you don't mind spending an extra $3 to really kick that xanax in, I ask that you try it because the results are quite worthwhile. I'll try and keep some tips on the boards for newcomers if that's alright, I've learned quite a bit about myself while using drugs you might as well.

Stay safe,
Bos

It works for valium as well, IIRC. Not sure about other benzos but I remember from when I was reading up on it, the benzos it does work for are pretty specific, unlike with opiates.

About 1-2 8 oz glasses should do the trick. I'd recommend White Grape Fruit juice as well. Seems to make worlds of difference with Opes...but i've only tried white with benzos and it works quite well.

A couple of glasses, like BTO said. But...I'm pretty sure that GFJ inhibits breakdown, making a given dose last longer, as opposed to making it feel like a stronger dose. I'd recommend you drink a couple of glasses of GFJ, pop your normal dose, and it should last longer than it normally does.

Don't quote me on that though, I'm not very experienced with benzos and GFJ.

For that price I could just pick up another bar or two.

For opiates, grapefruit juice is worth it just cause opiates tend to be more expensive, but just because benzos are cheap as shit it doesnt really seem worthwhile. A good bottle of grapefruit juice is easily going to cost you 3-5$, so why not just invest it in more of the drug? Good read though

Because $5 is an insignificant amount of money anyways.

Because grapefruit juice is delicious, and good for the body and soul.

i never saw any difference with xanax, and i like how xanax hits hard and quick, inhibition of enzymes makes it take longer to come to peak plasma, but in turn lengthen the duration. i found it to work best with valium, makes it take about an hour longer to hit its hardest, but boy does it hit haaarder. i like the taste as well.

and GFJ is rubbish for codeine and for hydrocodone, stops its conversion into morphine / hydromorphone.

The second and last time I did DXM I drank a shitload of tropicana squeezed grapefruit juice first and it really fucked me up. I was more fucked up than I have been after tanning loads of K.

Obv that's not benzos but shit seems to have quite an effect.

Oh believe me, I do.

Multivitamin, L-Tyrosine, and a combination tablet of 5-HTP/St. John's Wort is the typical starting cocktail of my day.

L-Tyrosine, IMO, is an absolute must for anyone who engages in daily or even semi-daily amphetamine use/abuse.

When I was detoxing from Suboxone (not fun) I drank alot of grapefruit juice and took alot of ammodium AD and xanax, it worked wonders.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
for the curious, I also took ibuprophen, claritin, sometimes diphenhydramine, and a daily prescribed dose of 70mg Vyvanse (D-amp time release).

The combo was a good one and I successfully detoxed completely for the first time (could never do it previously with H or sub).

It's an honor just to have you post on my thread PoC, I talked to you on AIM a few times then you disappeared. I, and a few others, were getting quite worried. Tell me the story about the 5mg Rohypnols again, ha.

Nah im just yanking ya chain, part of the fun of benzos is just not knowing when just that one pill will put you over the limit. Sort of like a guessing game if you will ;)

...I wish I could still get fucked off of 5mgs of Ativan :(
