Has anyone tried xanax xr?

My psych aprn has written me a script for the xanax xr. I asked the pharmacist if she's heard any feedback from customers using it, but she said she doesn't see many people being prescribed them. I'm hoping it will level my day out a bit, instead of waiting for the next pill or feeling up & down all day. Any input would be appreciated! Also, she said I can supplement it with my regular xanax as needed if it starts to wear off - has anyone heard of this before? She told me if the xr didn't work, to take another xr, but I told her I was afraid to take that much! Meds totally freak me out. That's when she suggested the regular xanax as a supplement. I have a follow-up in 2 weeks, but since it seems to be a fairly new drug, I'd love your input.
