Alaprazolam which is the drug name of Xanax.

Many pill identification imprints are provided for four of the benzodiazepine class of drugs - alprazolam (Xanax), clonazepam (Klonopin), diazepam (Valium) and lorazepam (Ativan). Pharmer.org will continue to compile pill identifier numbers for the benzodiazepines.

Benzodiazepines (benzos) are central nervous system depressants. They are used for the short-term relief of anxiety, insomnia, sedation, muscle relaxation and treatment of seizures. These drugs are sometimes referred to as minor tranquilizers.

As with narcotic analgesics, long-term use of benzodiazepines can result in tolerance and dependency. Because of the serious withdrawal syndrome associated with this class of drug, benzodiazepines should never be stopped abruptly. It is recommended that the dosage be slowly tapered down.

Also, for future use you can go to Drugs.com.
