Question by Irene R: my son is going into a drug rehab.?
it will be outpatient and he’ll be drug tested each time he goes. we are sending him because he has been abusing over the counter drugs at dangerous levels. he does struggle with anxiety and has for years. he had been given xanax recently and has done really well on it. Only takes it as needed and allows me to monitor it for him. will drug rehab allow him to continue taking the xanax as needed. he doesn’t take it every day, only in certain situations and it really helps. He’ll have a prescription with him when he goes and I assume they’ll see the medication in his urine. will taking this be a problem. will they want him to stop using it and should we not have him take any for the week before he goes so it isn’t in his urine. should he show the prescription first to ask if it’s okay to take and then start again on it. I’m confused about this whole process and how it will help him.
appreciate any help or advice.    Read more...
