Limiting Xanax Withdrawal

To avoid severe withdrawal symptoms, your healthcare provider will likely wean you off Xanax slowly. Be sure to talk with your healthcare provider before stopping Xanax. Also, let your healthcare provider know if you notice any bothersome symptoms after stopping the medication. Do not be afraid to ask your healthcare provider for help with Xanax withdrawal, even if you have been abusing Xanax (see Xanax Addiction) or taking it without a prescription. Xanax withdrawal can be very dangerous.
