Probably OK but...: Many women have taken xanax (alprazolam) during pregnancy & have healthy babies, but it is ideal to minimize your use if possible as it may not be completely safe. This is a great time to explore alternative treatments for panic disorder. I advise magnesium taurate or glycinate & inositol (12 grams a day). I advise seeing a homeopath: http://nationalcenterforhomeopathy.Org/resources/practitioners.See comment:.
