Alprazolam, 8-chloro-1-methyl-6-phenyl-4H-s-triazolo[4,3-a][1,4]benzodiazepine (Xanax), israpidly absorbed from the GI tract. Protein binding is lower(～70%) than with most benzodiazepines because of itslower lipophilicity.α-Hydroxylation of the methyl group tothe methyl alcohol (a reaction analogous to benzylic hydroxylation)followed by conjugation is rapid; consequently,the duration of action is short. The drug is a highlypotent anxiolytic on a milligram basis.
