Medicine question

2018-08-15 07:07:38
I take xanax as needed for anxiety, usually just on road trips. I have to travel the next two days, but have come down with a cold of some sort. I am not talking any medications except for my zoloft, aspirin, and tylenol. Is it safe to take my xanax with this cold?
