Xanax is the brand name for a fast-acting benzodiazepine medication, alprazolam. This medication is prescribed for the short-term treatment of generalized anxiety, panic disorders, anxiety associated with depression, and social anxiety disorder.
Rarely, it is used to treat insomnia or seizures, but among benzodiazepine medications, Xanax is not the most efficient at this. Even more rarely, alprazolam may be prescribed to treat more intense and immediate symptoms of depression.
This page will cover whether using Xanax for anxiety is considered a long-term treatment solution, effects of long-term use, other treatment options, and how to get help for Xanax misuse.
