NEUROBIAN FORTE is a vitamin B12 tablet.
ALPRAZOLAM is a benzodiazepine, which is basically a sleep pill.
I dont know why the Doctor has given Neurobian forte, but Alprazolam will help your grandma to sleep properly.
Alprazolam also help recover anxiety disorders.

Alprazolam is a short-acting drug in the benzodiazepine class used to treat anxiety disorders and as an adjunctive treatment for depression. It is also used as a medication to aid the beginning of treatment with SSRI type drugs, since these can cause anxiety in the initial stages of use.

Anxiety PO (Adults): 0.25-0.5 mg 2-3 times daily (not >4 mg/day; begin with 0.25 mg 2-3 times daily in geriatric/debilitated patients). so nothing more than 1.5mg a day Panic Attacks PO (Adults): 0.5 mg 3 times daily; may be increased by 1 mg or less every 3-4 days as needed (not >10 mg/day). Extended-release tablets (Xanax XR)--0.5-1 mg once daily in the morning, may be increased every 3-4 days by not more than 1 mg/day; up to 10 mg/day (usual range 3-6 mg/day). nothing more than 10mg a day. Prolonged high-doses(>4mg/day) can cause serious kidney and liver damage.
