About
Xanax is typically prescribed for short-term use due to its potential for tolerance, dependence, and addiction. Prolonged use of Xanax can lead to physical and psychological dependence, making it challenging for individuals to discontinue use without experiencing withdrawal symptoms. Because of these risks, healthcare providers often recommend using Xanax for short periods and gradually tapering off the medication when it is no longer needed.
