Can detox or withdrawal from Xanax kill a person?!


Question: Can detox or withdrawal from Xanax kill a person.?
I know someone who has had a problem with Xanax for a long time and she recently died suddenly. I haven't spoken with her family yet but I am curious as to much her addiction contributed to her death.Health Question & Answer


Answers:
It might have, but I doubt it.
In drugs like heroin and cocaine, I know if somebody taking high doses quits cold turkey the shock it has on the body can kill them.
But with Xanax, or Alprazolam which is a triazolobenzodiazepine, it's very unlikely she would have died from withdrawls.Health Question & Answer

A lot....if it is not done properly and under medical supervision then it can lead to death specially if she stopped abruptly.

So sorry for your loss. I am sure she is at a better place!Health Question & Answer
