Natural Rx!: The risk of dependence for Xanax may increase with dose & duration of treatment. The dose should be lowered gradually when discontinuing therapy or when lowering the daily dosage. I therefore suggest working with the prescribing doctor to discontinue Xanax. Natural therapies for anxiety such as exercise, CBD oil, meditation, aromatherapy, chamomile & playing with a pet should be considered!
