Best Benzo for Anxiety in Elderly?

Posted by fachad on January 30, 2002, at 12:17:44

My 78 yr old mother has been a worrier all her life, but lately it's much worse. She gets panicky and agitates endlessly about every trival thing.
The dr. at her nursing home is going to give an order for Xanax 0.25mg PRN. Is there a better alternative for older people?
