Street slang for the perscription mood-elevator, Xanax (Alprazolam). Alprazolam is indicated for the management of anxiety disorder. While the drug is available in .25, .5, 1 and 2
mg doses, it's the 2
mg doses that earned this controlled substance the street name, "French Fries."
The 2
mg tablets are white with three slices (3 scores) in the side, and the number "2" on
one side and "Xanax" on the other side. These score-marks give the tablets a resemblance to crinkle-
cut french fries, and allow the tablets to be broken into 4 equal parts of 0.5
mg.
