Who qualifies for panic disorder medication

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually. They look for a confirmed diagnosis of panic disorder or severe anxiety symptoms consistent with it. They consider your medical history, any existing conditions, and other medications you are taking. The doctor ensures panic disorder medication is safe and appropriate for you before issuing a prescription. This includes evaluating potential contraindications and ensuring the benefits outweigh any risks.

What panic disorder medication actually does (and doesn't do)

Medications for panic disorder, typically SSRIs, SNRIs, or sometimes benzodiazepines, work by rebalancing brain chemicals like serotonin and norepinephrine. This helps to reduce the frequency and intensity of panic attacks and general anxiety. You can expect a gradual reduction in symptoms over several weeks as the medication takes effect. It doesn't 'cure' panic disorder, but it significantly manages symptoms, allowing you to regain control and participate in therapy more effectively. Medication is often most effective when combined with psychological therapies like CBT.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, panic disorder treatments can have side effects. Common ones for SSRIs/SNRIs include nausea, insomnia, or changes in appetite, especially in the first few weeks. Benzodiazepines can cause drowsiness. It's crucial to report any persistent or severe side effects to your doctor. Never stop your medication suddenly without medical advice, as this can lead to withdrawal symptoms or a return of panic attacks. Your doctor will provide clear guidance on how to manage medication and when it might be appropriate to gradually reduce or stop treatment.
