About Tranxen?

I've been taking Tranxen every night for about a week and a half for anxiety, I think it's causing me to be depressed. How do I get off of it? I take 3.75.

It is an opiate medication, that belongs to Benzodiazepine. If you are feeling depressed, be careful about withdrawal syndome. Ask your Dr. what is the best way to discontinue its use.
You should promptly consult your prescriber and your pharmacy for advice about this medication and its effects on you.

Thank you for your question.
Talk to your prescriber about this.
