What medicines can treat my severe panic attacks?

Question

Hello doctor,

I suffer from very severe panic attacks. I have a very hard time just going out in public to do normal routines. I have tried so many methods to combat my anxiety, but they do not work. Is there any medicine that helps with this problem? I feel like I have tried everything. Of note, in the past, I have been prescribed Clonazepam.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

You are suffering from panic attack disorder. You should start the tablet Escitalopram 10 mg once a day after breakfast. It is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. It will help you prevent your anxiety and panic attacks. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her, and with their consent, take the medicines. Tablet Clonazepam is used during a panic attack to resolve the attack. You can take it round-the-clock. It is a Benzodiazepine drug, and you can get easily addicted to it if you take it for a longer time. You can take Clonazepam for four weeks two times a day and then taper it off and finally stop it.

Thank you.
