I have read that people don't feel it is as strong as the regular tablets of alprazolam (Xanax)...that 2 mg. would seem more like 1 mg. How often are you taking them? If my anxiety is very bad, I take .5 mg. of the regular pills every four hours as needed. I've only taken two pills at the most in one day...but everyone is different and what I need could be completely different than what you need :)
