Treatment for Panic Attacks

Is there treatment for panic attacks? There is treatment available. That is good news.

Panic attacks are usually not something that can be overcome overnight. But with a good treatment plan created by your doctor, you can begin the path to becoming panic attack free.

Let's take a look at some of the treatment options that your doctor might suggest.

Prescription Medication

There are a few types of medications that your doctor might prescribe to you.

These include:

SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors)

Benzodiapizpines

TCAs (Tricyclic Antidepressents)

SNRIs (Serotonin and Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors)

MAOIs (Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors)

In addition to possibly prescribing medication(s) for panic attacks, your doctor might suggest cognitive behavioral therapy. He/she will likely try to rule out any other medical conditions that could be contributing to the feelings of panic or anxiety.
