Can a regular medical doctor prescribe anxiety medication? Or does this require a psychiatrist?

Content: With that said I believe that primary care doctors can, in certain cases, write scripts for anti-anxiety meds. This depends on how long you have been going to the same doctor and if he already has knowledge of your anxiety issues. Some docs are very reluctant to write scripts for benzodiazepines due to the crack down on the opiod epidemic so you may need to see a few doctors before you find one who will prescribe benzodiazepines. Good luck and I hope that you can get some relief from your anxiety, I have lived with anxiety for at least 30 years. Sponsored by Gundry MD
