I Need A Doctor To Prescribe Xanax

I am currently taking 1mg xanax and am wondering if I could get it increased to 2mg ## That would be a 100% increase in the amount of medicine your Doctor is prescribing and most doubtful ## Hi Diamond, In my opinion, it would safer to gradually work your way up to 2mg instead of. Why do you want to up the dosage so much? Have you considered any natural alternatives? Here's a link to some herbal alternatives to Xanax that you can ask your doctor about if you'd like: livestrong.com/article/115874-herbal-alternatives-xanax/ I hope this helps! ## Diamond how long have you been taking this dose? it s really unlikely, and not good for you to increase unless you were traumatized, or were having increased anxiety for example: not coping with a death well ,loss of marriage, worsening ni...

Just moved to San Diego from Jersey. Have been suffering anxiety my whole life but is unbearable since I moved. I've taken a couple Xanax in my day and honestly that's the only thing that helps. I was wondering if anyone can recommend a doctor in the San Diego area who is pretty liberal with their prescriptions who takes cash. ## All Doctors will take cash. You shouldn't have a big problem with California Doctors unlike other areas. If worse comes to worse you can slip down to Mexico and either just go to a pharmacy or see a doctor and go to a pharmacy there. I believe you are allowed to bring back up to a 90 day supply legally. Good luck!

In St. Louis MO and need doctor to prescribe Xanax. Just moved back home to St. Louis and am 46 and forgot my old doctor. I need a new one that is able to write Benzos for my anxiety. Please help. ## Technically, any doctor can prescribe it. However, the recent changes to regulations and the push from the DEA to get better control of medications such as this means that it's most likely that a general practitioner won't prescribe it for you long-term, but instead will refer you to a specialist for counseling and medications, if needed. The best thing you can do is just find yourself a new doctor first, rather than trying to find one that will prescribe Xanax. Asking them if they'll do that, before you're an established patient is considered a red flag for drug seeking beh...

Can anyone help me out...... ## Kat, if you are clean off Xanax for some time now it is best not to start back with them. These days they are much harder to obtain and can be highly addictive.

I've been dealing with severe anxiety and can't function on my daily activities. Feeling really nervous and scared for no reason and sometimes I feel shortness of breath. What's really bad is I can't sleep well at night, so I'm looking for a doctor to prescribe something to treat my anxiety and help me relax. I'm located near Dallas, TX. ## I can't speak to a Doctor for you or tell you they would prescribe anything. You have to present yourself in person and establish a Doctor Patient relationship. If things get really bad try the ER ## Eddy is correct. Your best bet is to see a new doctor, but not ask for any specific medications, because they might view that as being drug seeking. Xanax is a controlled substance that carries the risk of being habit forming,...

Dr Murray Snook in Georgetown, TX has no problems prescribing Xanax. Will refill every month for years as long as you come in and complain of anxiety. ## What Dr. Snook does for one patient does not mean he would do for all patients. Also it does him limited good to post this info as the DEA or local authorities have access to the internet and could possibly sanction him. This is not to say that he won't give out these pills.

I've had anxiety and bad panic disorder now for 15 yrs. I was taking 2mg 4 times daily Got new primary dr. He don't believe in xanax. He gave me a few to see how they work. Go back in first of aug. I need a Dr that understand my dilemma. Please refer me to someone that can help. Thank you ## Even the patent holder of Xanax do not suggest 8 mg a day. When you're cut off, (and you will be) you are a prime candidate for withdrawal including a stroke ## I am sorry, Jon! I do not have a list of doctors there to refer you to, I live on the west coast. 8mgs a day is not a commonly prescribed dosage, as Eddy has already stated, but doctors do have to adjust most dosages according to how the person responds to any given medication. The FDA warns that this one carries the risk of bein...

Good regular patient needs loving home. Have been on 3mgs qhs of Alprazolam for nearly 20 years. Consistently stable with recent improvements (panic/anixety/depression). Clinic became anti-benzo and wouldn't help find another provider. In serious withdrawal for days now w/SI. No history of EoTH or anything else. Just need to get back to living.

Most clinics in WA have stopped prescribing benzodiazepines and narcotics, because they are very risky and it is very hard for the doctors at a busy clinic to monitor the patients.

Where is the easiest place to get Xanax prescribed in Montgomery, Alabama? SWIM has seizures and no insurance and is having a really difficult time at the moment getting a script. If you're not already aware, being diagnosed with grand mal seizures is bad enough but running out of Xanax makes SWIM have them more frequently and more violently when they don't have Xanax...not to mention the withdrawals.

I have had horrible panic attacks since I was 18. I also have generalized anxiety disorder, ptsd and severe depression. My family doesnt understand why I cry all the time. I dont either. I just know that Im alone and heartbroken. My dad is my best friend and he is bedridden with muscular dystrophy. He never wants to get out of bed anymore. I have 2 children also. Its in their best interest to not live with me. I am seeing a doctor who gives me 75 2 mg xanax a month and she thinks that is a lot. I only take them when im feeling anxious or start to panic.
