Addiction SpecialistAnswer: Xanax is a benzodiazapine and withdrawal from this class of medications can be dangerous so it is important to do so under a doctors care. Typically, doctors use longer acting benzodiazapines like clonazepam or chlodiazepoxide to detox individuals from shorter acting ones like Xanax.
