A member asked:
And if .05 mg is equivalant to 10 mg of valium why would my dr keep prescribing a patient 3 mg of xanax (alprazolam) & want me to see phcyatrist for 30 mg valium?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Xanax (alprazolam): Those are high doses of benzos. Your doctor realizes that these are habit forming at these doses as well as that pills are useful but not the final answer and are merely a crutch.
