Xanax And Pregnancy Posted: 01-03-08 01:59am


Ahh help! I'm about 8 weeks pregnant and I just read that xanax is harmful to a fetus.... I am so scard. I take zoloft and xanax. I take the zoloft regulary and was told that was ok. I only take the xanax as needed. In the past 3 weeks I have taken about 7 or 8 xanax at .5 mg. Does anyone know how risky this is. I feel awful! thanks! Kelly

You may want to talk to your doctor. I am not sure how risky it is, but as with any medicine you take, you should consult with your physician.

you didn't know and you can't change the past, so try to stop worrying (easier said that done, i know). stop taking the xanax and talk to your doctor about safer alternatives. xanax is a class d drug and during pregnancy you really want to only take class a and b drugs (sometimes c if it's needed).

Before I knew I was pregnant I also took xanax. I only took 3 or 4 but I was still very worried about. I asked my doctor about it at my first appointment and he told me that as long as I stopped taking it I should have nothing to worry about. Just talk to your docotr, I made myself a nervous wreck just try not to worry about it.
