The doc created another addiction problem for her. That's not safe. Benzo's are highly addictive where the body develops a tolerance for the drug resulting in the user having to ever increase the dosage to get the same effect. Mixing it with alcohol can be deadly as it increases the sedation the drug provides. For all we know, she could have taken too much of Xanax and fallen asleep in the bath tub where she drowned.
The doc had choices like Paxil that treats anxiety and it's not an addictive drug. He/she screwed up big time!
