Hi, Chest!
From the Drugs.com Interaction Checker:
"Using ALPRAZolam (Xanax) together with cariprazine (Vraylar) may increase side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, and difficulty concentrating. Some people, especially the elderly, may also experience impairment in thinking, judgment, and motor coordination. You should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with these medications. Also avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medications affect you. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns."
This moderate interaction could also possibly occur with Vraylar and any benzodiazepine. What type of side effects did you experience? Were they like the ones above? Side effects generally appear within hours to a a couple of days so since you've been taking Vraylar for a month it doesn't seem like it would be the culprit by itself.
Best regards,
