New Federal Xanax Laws? (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

I have done a lot of reading on the new United States 2013 Xanax laws. There aren't any? You can still obtain up to a 6 month supply of any schedule IV (4) medicine which includes Xanax. Some States have limited MD's to writing for a 30 day supply even forcing you to see a Specialist and putting you on a 'performance plan'. Please do not confuse local and State laws with Federal laws!

Sorry to read what you have gone through. I live a block away from Arizona and have had no problems obtaining Xanax. I did have one doctor limit me to 40 mg a month once, but that was 4000 mg ago!

Yes thank you, I am reading about these new rules and regulations in a handful of States, so I googled it as many posters here are asking, and yes its true if you live in certain areas. I think this is outrageous because medicines like Xanax can make you very sick if you stop. Some States are requiring patients to be seen by a Psychiatrist and or sign a Patient Improvement Program. I had not heard of this, and in no way does it affect me. I wonder how many will become sick due to these new laws in Kentucky, New York, Texas it seems, Florida, and I'm sure there is another State or two?

I haven't come across any new laws pertaining to the use of Xanax in my research either. Were you led to believe that there would be any sort of changes this year?

Erowid tends to have a pretty up to date list of this type of information on an international level if you're interested in having a look:
erowid.org/pharms/alprazolam/alprazolam_law.shtml

I hope this helps!
