Xanax Addiction

Xanax is a fast-acting Benzodiazepine; its prescription name is Alprazolam.

Xanax is usually prescribed by doctors to treat cases of anxiety and panic disorders, but it is one of the most popular drugs of use, second only to opiates.

Being a prescription drug, people may become addicted to it without their knowledge.

Xanax addiction and overdose become serious possibilities when combined with other depressants or alcohol.
