I assume you mean Xanax (alprazolam) when you wrote Zanx. If I’m wrong, please let me know. I haven’t heard of “Zanx” otherwise. With all that being said, Xanax does not cause hair loss as far as I’m aware… unless it is an extremely rare side effect (see this past post).

If taking a medication causes a burning sensation to the scalp, discuss these things with your doctor and consider stopping the treatment. If using normal shampoo burns your eyes, don’t use it. Perhaps you have an allergy to an ingredient in the shampoo or you’re just getting it in your eyes.
