If you are in the Netherlands and searching for online panic disorder treatment, you’ve found the right place. You can get a prescription for medication from an EU-licensed doctor — without an in-person clinic visit. Hi-Doctor offers a flat €25 online consultation fee, and if approved, you receive an electronic prescription signed by an EU-licensed doctor within 24 hours. This electronic prescription includes the details pharmacies need. Each pharmacy reviews it and decides whether it can dispense it, and a pharmacist may dispense a locally marketed equivalent. No risk: if the doctor determines the treatment is not appropriate for you, your €25 fee is refunded automatically.
How it works: get your panic disorder medication prescription in 4 steps
- Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and pay the €25 consultation fee.
- A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. If the doctor decides the treatment is not appropriate, your €25 is refunded automatically, so there is no risk.
- If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
- Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it at a pharmacy in the Netherlands. The pharmacist will review it and decide whether it can be dispensed.
Who qualifies for panic disorder treatment
Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually to determine if medication for panic disorder is appropriate. They look for a confirmed diagnosis of panic disorder or significant symptoms consistent with it, and a history that suggests medication could be beneficial. Contraindications, such as certain pre-existing medical conditions, interactions with other medications you are taking, or specific mental health conditions, will be carefully reviewed. The doctor acts as your gatekeeper, ensuring your safety and the appropriateness of the treatment.
What panic disorder medication actually does (and doesn't do)
Medications for panic disorder, typically SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors) or SNRIs (Serotonin-Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors), work by balancing neurotransmitters in the brain, such as serotonin and norepinephrine. This helps to reduce the frequency and intensity of panic attacks and overall anxiety levels. You can expect to start feeling some effects within 2-4 weeks, with full benefits often seen after 6-12 weeks of consistent use. These medications are not a 'cure' but a tool to manage symptoms, allowing you to engage more effectively in therapy or lifestyle changes. They do not instantly stop a panic attack but help prevent future ones.

Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, those for panic disorder can have side effects. Common ones include nausea, dizziness, insomnia, or changes in appetite, especially when first starting treatment. These usually subside as your body adjusts. It's crucial to report any severe or persistent side effects to a healthcare professional immediately. Do not stop taking your medication abruptly without consulting a doctor, as this can lead to withdrawal symptoms or a relapse of panic attacks. Your Hi-Doctor physician will advise you on the proper way to manage and potentially discontinue treatment if needed.
