Facts on Xanax

Illegal possesion of Xanax is a felony and carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison, and a $5,000 fine.

Since Xanax is so readily available some abusers may never have to pay for the drug.

"When people start escalating dosages and self-medicating, they can very quickly become addicted and it can be a very dangerous addiction," said drug expert and author Rod Colvin.

In Philadelphia, recently, 28 young teenagers took powerful doses of Xanax during lunch period at a middle school and 12 had to be treated at a hospital.
