Xanax the medication you took is not going to make you sick taking only 1mg. You do not need to panic, not do you need to go to the hospital. Actually, the medication you took should make you relax. It is prescribed to people for anxiety disorders. Although doctors are trying to shy away from giving it out too much because of it's addictive qualities. Some friendly advice, don't take any medications that aren't prescribed for you, because is the off chance you do end up in the ER you are going to have a hell of a time explaining where you got it from.
Here is some Info:
GENERIC NAME: alprazolam
BRAND NAME: Xanax
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Alprazolam is a member of the benzodiazepine family. Benzodiazepines are sedatives that cause dose-related depression of the central nervous system. They are useful in treating anxiety, insomnia, and muscle spasms.
PREPARATIONS: Tablets: 0.25mg, 0.5mg, 1mg, 2mg.
PRESCRIBED FOR: Alprazolam is used for the treatment of anxiety disorders and panic attacks. Anxiety disorders are characterized by unrealistic worry and apprehension, causing symptoms of restlessness, aches, trembling, shortness of breath, smothering sensation, palpitations, sweating, cold clammy hands, lightheadedness, flushing, exaggerated startle responses, problems concentrating, and insomnia. Panic attacks occur either unexpectedly or in certain situations (i.e. driving), and can require higher dosages of alprazolam.
DOSING: Alprazolam may be taken with or without food. Alprazolam is metabolized by the liver and excreted mainly by the kidney. Dosages of alprazolam may need to be lowered in patients with abnormal kidney function.
PREGNANCY: Benzodiazepines, such as alprazolam, can cause fetal problems and should not be used in pregnancy or in nursing mothers.
NURSING MOTHERS: Benzodiazepines, such as alprazolam, can cause fetal problems and should not be used in pregnancy or in nursing mothers.

Okay, don't panis. First off, why did you do this? It is serious. If you begin to have side effects such as hives or itchiness, then that mean you are allergic. You shoudl go see help right away for this. And if yellowing of the skin or eyes appear you MUST go see a doctor right away. Right now, I would just calm yourself, if anything starts to feel wrong then go to someone you trust or a doctor immediately!

Anxiety is an emotion characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts and physical changes like increased blood pressure.
People with anxiety disorders usually have recurring intrusive thoughts or concerns. They may avoid certain situations out of worry. They may also have physical symptoms such as sweating, trembling, dizziness or a rapid heartbeat.

Anti Anxiety Drugs are dangerous as any medicine is if taken without a prescription. Why would you do that to begin with? Please call a doctor or hospital in case you are allergic to the medication.

It might help your acne. If you are anxious about it, get a prescription for ALPRAZOLAM. The difference is only a "p" but
great rivers start with a little tinkle.

I am assuming you mean alprazolam...which is Xanax. You may be a little loopy for a while because they will relax you. Hopefully you don't take any Rx drugs that could react with this. Don't drink any alcohol and you should be fine.

1mg should not do you much harm, as long as you are not taking any prescriptions that are contra-indicated in use with xanax. Do not drive, do not sign any legal binding contracts for the next 24 hours.
