Your Definition

A very potent benzodiazepine. Often referred to as a "minor" [tranquilizer] , it is really anything but. Typically prescribed for anxiety and panic disorder. [Dependence] ensues quickly even at therapeutic doses , resulting in what is considered to be one of the worst withdrawal syndromes by the medical community when abruptly discontinued.

The relatively low dose , when compared to the other benzodiazepines , is actually quite deceptive. [The general] concensus on therapeutic doseage equivalency among benzodiazepines is as follows:

.5mg xanax
1 mg Ativan
.5 mg klonopin
10 mg diazepam , Valium
25 mg. Librium , Chlordiazepoxide

As you can see , 2mgs of xanax is [really not] a small dose at all. It is equal to 4 10mg valium! Despite the fact that most doctors would never prescribe that much Valium , patients are far too often put on corresponding doses of xanax , and unknowingly become extremely dependent on the drug.

The benzodiazepines are habit forming. W/D can be quite serious ,is of the alcohol type , and can lead to seizures and death if not managed medically.
