Taking Xanax 0.25mg before an MRI?!


Question: Will it help with my claustrophobia ?


Answers: Will it help with my claustrophobia ?

Yes, it can help. Also. tell the technician of your claustrophobia & if they could please talk to you a lot. Ask if you could talk to them. Ask for music, keep your eyes closed & imagine a pleasant, calm location.

Try the xanax before & see the effect it has on you. You could probably take 2.

Otherwise ask for an open MRI.

Good luck. You will survive.

if u have serious one, am afraid not : (
i had a patient before with a claustrophobia for brain MRI, we couldn't do it for him, he kept just trying to do it, but he couldn't help it, even we gave him anti anxiety drugs.
so we had to take a concent to do it under sedation.
