Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Tapering down use is the safest, and most effective, way to detox from Xanax and reduce withdrawal symptoms. Tapering off Xanax involves gradually cutting back on the dosage of the drug over a period of time.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
