Lurker,
Don't claim to be an expert on the subject but I have been taking Xanax for a while now and was told that if, and when, the time came to stop it, I should taper off slowly. Xanax is an extremely addictive drug, and depending on the amount of time you've been taking it, you may be experiencing some withdrawal symptoms. I know people who have had to go thru detox to kick Xanax, although they had been on the drug for years and this is probably not your case. Was the sudden switch at your doctor's orders? Have you talked to your doc about the symptoms you're having? Please keep us informed about how you're feeling.

Hope this helps...

Greg

> I've just switched from Xanax to Klonopin for anxiety. It was an abrupt switch and I am suffering from migraines and stiff neck and body aches. Should I have let the Xanax "wash out" first or is it ok to switch abruptly? Feel awful and wondering if it's just flu or what? Thanks Lurker
