Deadly duo sedative And Alcohol - Queen of pop Whitney Houston suddenly found dead in hotel bathroom Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California on February 11, 2012. Whitney reportedly had a habit of always taking Xanax pills each time going on stage to reduce nervousness.

Especially on the day of his death, will perform at the party whitney Pre-Grammy Clive Davis and allegedly he was taking Xanax as habits. Not only was it just a tranquilizer, police also found alcohol near his body. The combination of alcohol and Xanax was fatal to the body of Whitney.

Although the toxicology of the inspection body is not over done, many rumors began circulating that Whitney died of a similar mix sedative called Xanax with alcohol.

It was said at the time found a position that seems Whitney drowned in a bathtub was initially suspected of drowning, but the test said that while there was no water in his lungs. This indicates that Whitney had died first before lying in the bathtub.

In this paper will try a little discussion about the so-called drug plays a role in the death of Whitney Houston.

Xanax and Alcohol

Xanax is the brand name for the class of drugs called benzodiazepines alprazolam generic. Alprazolam drug anticemas is one of the most widely prescribed and unfortunately most often misused. The main indications of this drug for anxiety disorders is panic, especially when a panic attack.

In practice, many doctors prescribe this anxiety not only for panic disorder but also the treatment of other anxiety and insomnia as well.
Benzodiazepines including alprazolam drug classes that have a short half-life.

This means that the drug is short enough to be in human blood after eating. Metabolites including the half-life ranged from 8-15 hours. In practice the effect of this drug is gone in 3-4 hours.

This situation would create the potential for substance dependence is also greater. It is not recommended consumed more than a few weeks. Usually in the doctor's recommended these drugs not more than 4 weeks, there is even some suggestion does not wear more than two weeks.

Alprazolam and alcohol actually have the same properties as a depressant to the nervous system of the brain. The purpose of this is a depressant drug that slows the nervous system of the brain that result is obtained peace.

Alprazolam working in Butiric Amino Acid Glutamate systems (GABA) has sedative properties, meaning properties of this drug to calm. Alcohol while also having the same properties that soothe.

Both of these substances is never advisable to drink together. Even someone who is in therapy with the drug alprazolam medication is not recommended to drink alcohol during treatment, although not in unison while drinking.

This is because if taken together, the effect can be many orders of magnitude of the expected real effects. Several studies have also said that benzodiazepines including alprazolam drugs in large doses or doses that doubled as interactions with other drugs will make even greater potency in suppressing the respiratory system in the brain.

If you see a history of treatment of the lung (emphysema disease is said) by some media about Whitney Houston, could have been the condition of the use of alprazolam and alcohol makes breathing became depressed which makes the condition becomes dangerous especially with the history of these lung disorders.

What I wrote above is just assumptions based on media coverage related to what is experienced by the late Whitney Houston. What actually happens behind the event we are looking forward to the official report of the government there.

My message is be careful use of sedatives and alcohol. If the benzodiazepine class of drugs anticemas the supervision of a physician should not attempt to self-medicate with drugs bought in pharmacies are still selling naughty drugs of this type without a prescription.
