Hi im a recovering addict, was taking xanax (alprazolam) for panic attacks, wondering if theres anything comparable to xanax (alprazolam) except less addictive?

Perhaps: Xanax (alprazolam) seems to combine a higher occurence of ephoria with a relatively short half life. Any other benzo is either less euphoric or has a longer half life and is less problematic with addiction. This includes ativan, Valium and klonopin. Yet all carry significant dependence risk as well. There is a slow release Xanax (alprazolam) which is safer but also maintains a physical dependency.

Antidepressants: Xabax and other nedications of its family are not good for long term treatment of panic attacks. Antidepressant medications prevent panic attacks and are the standard of care for panic attacks.

Xanax (alprazolam): For anxiety, Buspar (buspirone) is worth a try.
