Hiccuoping on xanax

I get it too. I believe it's part of the effect on our GABA receptors, but I may be wrong.

I don't usually like hiccups, but oddly I find myself enjoying hiccuping and sneezing a lot more than usual.
 
This is due to ability of benzodiazepines to relax the lower esophageal sphincter. Mixing benzos with caffeine makes it even worse, as they both have this side effect.
 
Funny story: one day at work a co-worker had seriously fucked up a huge project we were working on. We were feverishly trying to fix the mess before anyone noticed, but alas she was called out for it and got a good earful of lecturing over her mistake. She was upset. We go back to our desks for a minute and I hear this pill bottle rattling from her area. I have an idea she's prolly taking some Valium. Sure nuff an hour or so later she got massive hiccups and everybody involved in the project is in the room with us working. I was cracking the fuck up inside cuz nobody else had a clue but me. After she got fired I had to share my intel with the others about her hiccups. We were ROTFL.
