Where Can I Find A Dr In Florida Who Will Prescribe Xanax To Me?
(Newest replies first)

I have been prescribed Xanax for the last few years. My Dr has recently retired and I would like a recommendation of a Dr who can help in South Florida. I have anxiety and sleeplessness.

Thank you for the kind words. I would have thought this process of reviewing your most private of information wouldn't be abused, especially before your initial visit with a new practice. I really resent how things have become. There are a bunch of Xanax videos on YouTube, and I have found this forum very helpful! Could you expand your search to a family M.D. or D.O. to make it that much easier for you?

Re: EDDY (# 103)

I agree Eddie… it’s crazy how they can decide to look at every drug u have been prescribed. I’m a nurse and not that I agree with this but it is true that any medical information that a Doctor you see seems to be necessary in order to aid him making an informed diagnosis or treatment plan legally gives him the right to research your records. However I believe that you should have to be informed first as well as sign a release. But most doctors just assume they can do what they want now that they assume anyone with pain or anxiety or whatever is “an addict and seeker” smh. I have been on Xanax for over half my life on and off for legitimate and well documented anxiety and I personally asked to be taken off of it 2 years ago cause I felt better and didn’t use it often. That psychiatrist retired and now even with his records I cannot find any psych dr to prescribe it for me now. Smh.

Be sure and check the laws in your state. Unfortunately, some doctors lie to their patients about the laws

Re: EDDY (# 103)

Believe it or not Gabapentin aka neurontin is now a “narcotic/controlled” in most states. I am on it for severe spinal stenosis which means my spine narrows and pinched off my sciatic nerve causing nerve pain and damage and I actually have no issue with getting it as I have years of proof I’m in need of it but I know people who can’t get it now.

Re: E (# 100)

I stand corrected then. What if you live in a Tri State area though? A Pain Doctor would require similar checks & bloodwook, now you tell me a new office looks at everything, almost like an invasion of privacy? My Doctor last week called Xanax a "narcotic" and I said come on. Sure it's controlled, most of the medicine behind the counter is controlled. It seems the new language for any medicine that has a potential for abuse and is habit forming is a "narcotic". Also it is harder for the doctor to write for these pills requiring an extra electronic form/DEA #. Sounds like a terrible doctors office. Is this a HMO or some sort of managed care doctor, we'll all be there soon

It is common for doctors to check their states Prescription Drug Monitoring Program database before they see new patients now days.

Re: EDDY (# 99)

Not true. I signed up to see a new dr and the doctor looked up my controlled substance history and specifically texted and said they will not prescribe Xanax if that’s what I am coming for and i never said anything to them about why I was coming. And I haven’t abused the system or anything

Re: Drs can check anxiety (# 97)

A Doctor isn't going to waste their valuable time to pre check on you as a prospective patient before prescribing medicine. If the Doctor suspects you of being a drug user or abuser, or if you say something they consider a red flag, chances are they might not fill your prescription. It is all on how you present yourself, and developing a professional relationship is always helpful.

Re: BlessedLady (# 94)

I said they can confirm anxiety based on Electronic medical records which almost all physicians use now. They literally can tell the last time u received Xanax or any other medication if at all. So yes they can confirm it not by what u say but by ur records which I have

Re: Erika (# 93)

A person saying they have anxiety does not mean they have it. Doctors need to also go by other symptoms to confirm anxiety dx.

Re: Benjamin (# 87)

They can’t be in trouble for prescribing the medication if the person has valid reasons which will be checked over by the doctors. I’m a nurse I can assure u of this. Unless u posted “dr so and so” doesn’t even ask me about anxiety but writes me a prescription for Xanax anyway. Or something similar that’s only way they would be looked at
