hey ace, good to see you!...i take 1 mg xanax qid for a total of 4 mg/day, and have been doing so for quite some time...there are some memory problems, as with all the drugs related to this one....in my case, i suspect that my anterograde amnesia has either topped-off and/or that people i interact with accept my absentmindedness. i know you're down under - thus maybe a higher dose is the norm - but in the benzophobic u.s., 4 mg/day is looked upon as pushing the envelope. however, it's been a lifesaver for me, and i have not had to elevate dose and as long as one does not throw alcohol into the mix, it works like a charm....be well, and all the best, chemist
