I have anxiety and severe nervousness at times along with major teeth clenching. Usually I get this in social situations. I take Xanax 0.5 mg once or twice a week. Is that enough? Is that the normal prescribed dosage? Or will the doctor eventually up the dose?

The dosage can be adjusted certainly depending on its effectiveness. If you don't feel that you're getting the desired results, speak to your doctor right away.

Does your normal dose work? If not, talk to your prescribing doctor. Your dose may need to be changed.

The dose can be adjusted up to 6mg per day which is the max.

I take 0.5 as well, but i have to take it every day before bed. There have been times that i just can't get my mind to shut off and I get up and take another xanax. I would not recomend this. Sometimes 0.5 may not be doing the trick, but unless you have the luxury of sleeping in until noon, DON'T take two 0.5 xanax , they will knock you out like a grizzley bear!
