Hello
You friend is taking 2 mg XANAX ie. alprazolam and mainly this drug is used for anxiety , short terms of relief of anxiety, anxiety associated with depression and panic & phobia disorder.
Side effects are :
Slurred speech ( as may be in your friend case, anorexia, nausea, memory impairment, loss of coordination.
In your friend case may be this drug , responsible for such behave , but clearly it is very difficult to say ,why ,she is behaving in such manners.
In my opinion alprazolam 2 mg may not be responsible .
So this drug is habit forming also and addiction develops .
So frankly talk to your friend.
