Hello, and thanks for your question.
Mixing alcohol and Xanax is highly dangerous. In combination, this can cause respiratory depression, coma, and even death. If you are feeling dizzy and nauseous, you need to call 911 to have your respiratory status monitored in a supervised medical setting. Do not delay.
