1.5 mg - $3-$4
2 mg - $5
Again, this price varies by location and some dealers may charge up to $20 per pill.

Xanax is a controlled substance and making fake versions of the drug is a crime. Some illicit drug manufacturers will use various chemicals to make fake Xanax. This is done in order to make the drugs go further by mixing them with cheaper chemicals.
Xanax bars typically come in bars that contain 2 mg of alprazolam which can be broken into 4, 50 mg segments. As fake Xanax may not contain exact dosages, dealers can charge more per bar. This means someone buying fake Xanax could pay up to $15 per bar.
Fake Xanax can be extremely dangerous and may lead to accidental overdose.
The cost of prescription Xanax
A typical prescription for Xanax will be for 30 pills or bars (2 mg dose) at around $25 per pot. If someone has a prescription for larger doses they get a reduced price, as too may they if they have been on the drug for a long time.

Thankfully, there are thousands of rehab centers across the country that can help those suffering from Xanax use disorder. If you or a loved one is suffering from Xanax addiction, contact a treatment provider today to begin the road to recovery.
