Can you? Well, yeah. Should you? Probably not. Xanax enhances the effects of alcohol, causing extreme decreases in motor skills and decision making as the number of drinks increase. Even one drink could be enough to spark unexpected effects. Apparently, you aren't supposed to eat grapefruits while taking Xanax either... Don't ask me why; Xanax is powerful.
