For How Long Do Anti-anxiety Drugs Affect The System?
I am having severe panic attacks. I am out of town handling family issues and considering going to the ER. However, I am concerned about being placed on an anti-anxiety drug. I have to take a urine test on 6/18/14. How long would these type of medications stay in my system?

The duration depends on the type of anti-anxietydrug prescribed. I would suggest you to approach the ER as you are stating that you are having serious panic attacks.
I would say if you are taking prescription drugs, urine screening shouldn't be a problem. And also anti anxiety drugs are usually not screened to. Do take these drugs at the prescribed dose only.
Hope the above information helps you. Thanks.
