So when it comes to prescription drugs my knowledge is not so great - so please help me out!

If I took Ritalin this morning (10 mg, but that's actually a lot for me as I don't have it often and am of small build), is it 'safe' to take 2mg of Xanax now, in order to sleep? Or is it better to take an Ambien? My tolerance for Xanax is high. Just need to sleeeeep and chill!! But am worried about speedballing!

Thanks in advance Bluelight experts
 
You're fine with the xanax, the trouble comes when mixing two or more CNS depressants not so much stim/downer combo as long as you keep the dosages low which you are.
 
2 mg of Xanax does not seem much. You should not mix them of course. So you have to figure if you´ve taken Ritalin earlier enough.
Anyway, I wouldn´t worry, but that´s me..
 
Thanks both!!! - yeh the ritalin was hours ago - well over 12 hours! but still feel it a bit although that could b anxiety. dont think its the drug for me - it makes me a nervous wreck!!! have taken almost 1.75mg of Xanax and will prob top it up to 2mg to sleep soon!
 
Damn...wish I could feel Ritalin that long,well never have had it, just Focalin, same thing I think it's just twice as strong. Thought this was gonna be a I did a shitload of Ritalin thread and am coming down really bad. But ya 2mg of xanax should be fine...It's pretty common for people to get a Benzo along with their ADHD script, stuff like Ritalin, Adderall, Focalin etc....
 
hhahah trust me, I WAS coming down real bad from it - its crazy how low my tolerance is for ritalin - i have no idea why considering my history of partying hahah, although i guess its a difference family of drugs... Thanks so much for the advice all!!!! knocked myself out with xanax and now feel right as rain hahah
