Substance abuse of prescription medicine is on the increase in the United States. While benzodiazepines, such as Xanax, have been on the market since the 1960s, the frequency of abuse of Xanax and medicines like it has been on the rise over the past decade. 
Xanax belongs to a family of medications that depresses the central nervous system. For people who have panic disorders or other anxiety issues, the drug can be a very successful treatment. When a person has a Xanax addiction, they do not take the medication as prescribed; instead they take larger than normal dosages to achieve a feeling of being high. Abusing Xanax can result in a number of issues including:
- Xanax addiction
- Slowed breathing
- Reduced heart rate
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Death
