I’m thinking it’s more likely that the doctors are just not willing to write your Xanax script rather than a state ban. Doctors in every state are no longer writing benzo prescriptions and are shifting their new and old patients to antidepressants and anti psychotics. Benzos are going away just like opioids and it really doesn’t matter how long or how responsible one has been with their prescription.

It's more of the dosage I'm currently on 2mg 3xs @day, and no it's actually the perception,I've been told they don't like to write for that particular med due to the strong addiction that comes with it ,which I already have ,like I said they put me on it at age 15 I'm now 54 , I feel I'm being denied my medication due to all the drug problems going on and I've only been living in the area for a year , although my blood work has come back what it should ( is what they say ) my next step is to write a letter to our congressman and or governor of Indiana and see what happens there . I feel this state put me on it and I've been on all these years,this state should continue to keep me on it , I was told I could sue the makers of this drug ,but that won't get me the med I need and as far as changing meds ,it can't happen that fast , I've been told by so many different Drs they have never heard of anyone being on XANEX for this long and at this high of a dose :((( ( my phone may not be displaying my words as written, apologies in advance.
