Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i had a a short sting of cocaine use a few weeks back that landed me in the er with what i was told was a panic attack. I followed up with my doctor who first prescribed me .25 mg of xanax 2 times per day and a week later with no changes just more and more frequient attacks yje doctor put me on .50 mg 3 times a day. The only way I seem to be able to stay away from attacks is if I take 6-7 .50 mg xanax per day and want to know if this is a dangerous amount? Since I have had to increase my dosage I will now run out of medication tomorow so I have made another appointment but seem to panic at the though that she will no prescribe me anymore is that a normal thought or anxiety?
Hello, The dose whatbyou have taken is not lethal. But taking xanax regularly carries the risk of dependence. If you have problem of panic attacks, you can start with tablet paxidep. Take xanax only when anxiety levels are intolerable. But paxidep should take care of your anxiety as well as sleep problems if any. Thanks.
