Hi welcome to the health care magic

For anxiety don't try self medication

In such case we take detail history about anxiety and decision than taken whether drug needed or not

Alprazolam not taken for long time... It can be prescribed maximum up to 2 to 3 month

In panic attacks, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor drug also beneficial... It is to be prescribed for six to eight month as per need

So don't try self medication and consult psychiatrist for examination and discuss all these

Hope your concern solved
