Talk to experienced psychiatrist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
It is a good medicine for the disorder. It will take time to show effect. Continue taking the medication slowly within 2-3 weeks you will most likely see some changes. If no significant improvements happen a dose increase will likely help. Even then if no improvements happen then medicine might be changed.
Next Steps
try to enroll yourself in psychotherapy also. CBT may help the most in identifying your triggers and how to control your panic attacks. you can start maintaining a diary or journal detailing events during and just before the attacks. you can find a template online easily.
Health Tips
if no effect is being noted after 2 weeks then followup with your psychiatrist and discuss the issue. do not stop the medication suddenly or change it on your own. if you experience side effects again consult your psychiatrist. do not stop on your own.
Yes serta is a good medicine for anxiety and panic attacks. 50mg is optimum dose. Give it few more days to work. Quitipin at your current dose is for sleep.
Wait for 2-3 weeks. If you continue to have panic attacks you can revisit your doctor to revise the dosage or add something.
The medicines will take 4 weeks to act. After 2 weeks if the symptoms don't reduce alternate can be considered. If they ddon't seem to work get a second opinion from an astute psychiatrist either online or in person. Good luck
Serta is good. It will take time to show its effect, atleast two weeks. For symptomatic relief you must also take anxiolytics and/or beta blockers till then.
