He states he has not been feeling well and is “anxious”. He also states he needs something “new” for his anxiety because it is “so bad because I have a lot of stress”. You pull the OARRS report, Ohio’s prescription monitoring program, which indicates that another provider gave him Xanax 1 mg tabs #60 ten days ago. The quantity of 60 was meant to be a 30 day supply per OARRS.  When A. R. is questioned about this, he states he has been out of the Xanax for 2 days and insists that he was given only 10 tabs and the report is an error. His voice begins to get loud and he clutches at his chest. He says the stress of having to explain this to you is giving him chest pain. What is the most appropriate action to take next?
