Hi bluelighters,

I've had 3 mg (6 x 0.5 mg) of alprazolam about an hour ago. Sublingual.

I need to be at a work meeting at 15.00 tomorrow - consulting one guy.

Could my working skills be diminished from this use ?

Thanks.
 
Well, that is a pretty decent dose. Since you didn't really provide much information, I would say that make sure that you get a solid night's sleep. Sometimes when I take benzos, I may feel a bit hungover the next day. So, yes, your cognitive abilities have the potential to be diminished.

What is your tolerance ? What is your time zone?
 
To be more precise, I had the dose around 11.

The meeting will be at 3 pm tomorrow, which is in 14 hours. I'm planing on sleeping till 10 am.

Alprazolam has HL time 11.2 hours and its effects lasts 4 - 6 hours.

Will I be off the hook anyway ?

Thanks.

EDIT

Also I have a near to zero tolerance.

It is actually sixteen hours, you are benzo'd out obviously! Yeah, 3 mg would do that. You probably will still feel nice, and relaxed during the meeting. Maybe a little sedated. 3 mg is hefty for someone with no tolerance, but alprazolam is short-acting. Still, it was 3 mg, so yes you will probably feel it, but I don't think you'll be totally fucked up or anything.
 
It's hard to say, man. Everyone is different. Personally, when i was young and had no benzo tolerance, 3mg had the potential to make me black out for half a day. I would be alright by the next day, but definitely not 100%. Just make sure to get as much sleep as you can. Wake up, take a shower, eat a solid healthy meal, drink a coffee. You'll make it, but I can't say you'll be sharp as a tack. You took a pretty high dose for someone with no tolerance.
 
If it was me I'd be extremely sleepy the next day after a dose that big but not messed up or disoriented.
 
Now wait I am right. He dosed at 11 PM, he will have the meeting at 3 PM. That is 16 hours.
 
I thought it was 14 hours, then, and then I'd be like no it's 16. Just got confused. But it is 16.
