You described this epidemic so well. I was on a high dose of Alprazolam for 10+ years- 2mg bars 2-3 times daily. The doctor (M.D.)lost his license and left me scrambling to find another Dr to prescribe it. It was not easy at all, but I finally found a psychiatrist. Currently I am getting 0.5mg 2× daily for 3 months now. It's been hell on Earth. From what I've read, there has never been a lawsuit brought forth in the U.S.
I feel like this would be the only way to stop some Dr's from prescribing high doses for long periods of time. I don't think it will help me directly, but I believe it's 1000% necessary.
