My friend is abusing oxycontin and xanax (alprazolam) what should i do? tell his doctor?

Yes: Misuse of dangerous medications is indeed dangerous. People die. You should call the doctor, and do not be surprised when you are asked for your name and some more details. The doctor's staff might have no way to tell if you are an angry ex friend getting back at whoever.... If you are serious about this then you might really step up..

Med question: This is a very sensitive and complicated topic and discussion. Risks are high with him, with you, and with his physician(s). Talking to his doctor may be wisest, if confidentiality can be secured. Going to next appt with him may be another way. I pray that your friend will appreciate your concern with grace and mercy.

Treat causes vs symt: Chronic pain and anxiety are often related to low testosterone levels in males. The reference lab range is 250-1100 ng / dl. My experience has been that adult men can have a level as high as 650 ng / dl and still be very symptomatic for low testosterone. If the level of testosterone is raised to 800 - 1100 ng / dl the symptoms resolve. Risk factors for low T: mumps, mono, alcohol & THC.
