When I was at my family physician yesterday, she said she may have to take me off xanax and put me on ativan because of new Indiana guidelines. She did say I could see a psychiatrist for my xanax. I explained I have been on them for over 27 years a hysterectomy take 2-.05 a day. I told her I do not abuse them etc. They are probably psychologically by now anyways. If I have to I will see a psychiatrist. We will see when I come back which is 3 months. Is there a new guideline for Indiana? I am so mad about all these new rules and regulations. I have to pay out of my pocket for my xanaxs which is over $27. A friend of mine pays over $100 for her ativan. I cannot afford this. Thanks, corky ## There are new guidelines in quite a few states, on top of FDA and DEA crackdowns that have been cau...

I need a Dr. for xanax or to help me get off of them. Self-pay...ASAP. ## Are there any treatment programs available? You are bound to spook the new doc if you ask about both at first.

Indiana just changed there laws and my doc says they are makeing them refer people like me to a clinc. I have took methadone for at least 5 years and prob. 10 years. Is Indiana really making them do this or is this just so my doc can be done with me? I hate hate hate are government and the control they have us under!!! ## Hello, Adam! How are you? Yes, new regulations were put in place last year that severely restrict what your regular doctor can prescribe, so you will have to go to a clinic. This is universal all over the U.S. It was done to try to get better control and stop increasing rates of improper prescribing and over prescribing. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## That is totally UNTRUE because I have been prescribed methadone and xanax from my doc who has his own pr...

I could not get my presciption filled Anderson, IN pharmacy dont have my medication, they said there is a shortage... whats going on please ## Hello, Rebecca! How are you? From what I understand, there has been a shortage due to labeling changes, because this medication was changed to schedule 2 at the beginning of this month. Additionally, we are into the time of year when we always have a shortage due to mandatory manufacturing limits. Each manufacturer is only allowed to produce a certain amount of any controlled substance each year, once they reach that limit, they can't make any new product, until the new year. Demand almost always seems to exceed supply and we end up with a shortage for the last few months of the year. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to b...

I live in Kokomo, IN. I was on subs, but they require way to many na/as meetings. I have a full time job and 2 kids to look after. I heard there is a doc in Carmel that doesn't make you do these classes. I just need the medication cause I've been addicted to opiates for almost 20 years. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ## Most of the places I've tried make you find your own counselor which can be super expensive and difficult to get an appointment or else they won't prescribe you the medicine. I found a clinic opening in Carmel next month called Lucina treatment center which at least provides the counseling included in your cost so might give them a try. Can't be any worse than my current provider.

My problem is much like so many others on here. After being treated with meds for 12 years (120 Soma per month as well as 180 Norco 10 and 120 Valium 10) my wife which is on full disability was also treated by the same doc for 9 years. The doctor was raided by local police and DEA but was never charged with anything unfortunately the local press basically tried and convicted him in 1 week smear campain. As a result he never returned.to his.practice and allowed his medical license to expire. It's now been 22 months and the DEA still has my medical file as well as 15 other patients. It has been the closest thing to hell as I have every known. I can't even get a doctor to write a prescription for my gout medication. I now realized the amount of drugs I was receiving was excessive I...

Looking for a doctor in Indianapois that works with anxiety disorders and ptsd. now on Xanax by regular MD 1 mg 5x's a day not cutting it. ## Hi shae, Personally, I think if you suffer from anxiety and need a Benzodiazepine class medication (like Xanax), usually your best bet is to see a psychiatrist, rather than a regular medical doctor. Reason being is that they are better trained in the types of medications that handle these problems and can also help you treat the underlying cause of your anxiety, as opposed to just covering up the feelings and emotions with medication. Have you tried using any sort of natural treatment options? ## I do currenty take 1mg 1-2x's a day of Xanax. No more than 5 a day. It is not enough to help. I was seeing a psychiatrist about 10 years ago but ...

I live in south bend indiana and will travel to go to a clinic. I have been on methadone for years for pain. My doctor will no longer see me. Please help ## Methadone Clinics do not treat chronic pain. And there is a difference between physical dependance from taking it for a long time, as with chronic pain, and the criteria used when evaluating someone for methadone maintance due to addiction, If you're able to find a dr that will treat you, they will need to get a copy of your medical records from your last dr. You didn't say why your last dr refuses to treat you. But depending of the reason, it may be almost impossible to find a dr to treat you like you have been in the past.

I am in Indianapolis. Is it hard to find a doctor here to prescribe suboxone? I am having a hard time finding a doctor. I have been on pain killers for years and not only want to get off them but my doctor and the whole practice is starting to deny any prescriptions for narcotics which seems to be the norm here now. I have legit pain but I would rather deal with it then be treated like a drug addict by doctors! I have tried tapering and cold turkey. I think subs are the way to go. My friend stopped using her medication with the help of subs. Can someone please give me info or help on this subject? ## Hello, Inindy! How are you?

Any names of doctors who will prescribe vicodin for degenerative disks in IN? ## Hello, Alex! How are you? There is no database of doctors that will prescribe any given medication.

Filling Oxycodone early in Indiana ## Oxycodone is a narcotic, these are controlled substances and, as such, they fall under federal law, not state law. Thus, it is not possible to legally get them filled early. Have you talked to your doctor? If your current dosage isn't handling your pain and you are running out early, then that would the best thing you can do.

Need doc in indiana willing to prescribe tramadol for busy mom in desperate need of pain relief. Longtime sufferer of rheumatoid arthritis in spine and fibromyalgia. Please help!! ## Hello, Kccol! How are you? I'm sorry that you're in pain. Unfortunately, there is no listing of doctors according to what they will or will not prescribe that I can refer to for you. Additionally, due to the new directives set forth by the DEA last year, if you require such a medication on a long-term ongoing basis, you'll need to see a pain management specialist. A general practitioner won't prescribe it. The FDA classifies this medication as an opioid analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and cons...
