Alprozolam poisoning.
We report a rare case of Alprazolam poisoning presented with coma and respiratory depression in a young girl with positive family history of suicidal attempts by her father, mother and sister. The Alprazolam was available in large amount in form of "Physicians Samples" as her elder sister was a medical representative. The patient was successfully managed.
