RMA-Episode 109: Xanax Shenanigans: A Prescription for Disaster
This week on RMA, we review the 2022 documentary film Take your Pills: Xanax, currently streaming on Netflix. We also dive deep into the world of Xanax and benzodiazepine abuse, discussing the history, widespread use, and the challenges presented by aggressive pharmaceutical marketing and overprescription of these drugs.

If you’re in trouble with substance abuse and need help, reach out. There are thousands of people who have put problems with addiction in their rear-view mirrors and you can be one of them. While we neither endorse nor condemn any particular program, the sheer number of available AA and NA meetings suggest that reaching out to those organizations would be a good first step (but maybe not the last step), on your road to recovery.
