Brief Answer:
No worries
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. I believe blood pressure of 110 / 70 and heartbeat of 63 is pretty normal and there is nothing to worry about. Your medications are just right and xanax is an anxiolytic and it does not affect blood pressure.
I would say just continue with your medications and use xanax before bed time only and reduce alprazolam. I hope it helps. take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
