Can Xanax Be Obtained Over The Counter For Anxiety And Panic Attacks?

, my doctor put me on Xanax about 6 years ago ( I didn t ask to be put on them ). I have panic and anxiety disorder and seizures. She moved her office to Knoxville but she switched from primary care to something with the elderly. I had to find another doctor and I can t find one that will prescribe my Xanax, so I was going to see if you all know what kind and where it s located , if I don t have my Xanax my seizures get way worse.

Hello,

Xanax is a prescription required medication which is schedule IV controlled substance treatment.

You will need to see a local doctor either from urgent care/walk-in clinic or ER if urgent care is not available in your area and you cannot see any primary care doctor at anytime soon to get such prescription.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Katie Lee, General & Family Physician
