Xanax (alprazolam): This is not a high dose. Hope u r working closely with your doctor & counselor on cognitive therapy which is essential to concur your fears/anxieties in addition to the medication.

Round the Clock drug: Yes. It is too much. The dose does not matter as much as the regularity of taking this sedative. It is not healthy; it is bad medicine to be continually prescribed such a round the clock medicine. The goal is to prevent anxiety...Not just to push it away with a sedative.
