Question : I have severe panic attacks

Answered by Dr. Sudhir Kumar (1 hour later)

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

Panic attacks can be well treated with medications. These include imipramine and clonazepam.
You should get evaluated by a Psychiatrist to look for any underlying stressors or reasons for these panic attacks. Counselling may also be useful for treatment.

I hope it helps. Please get back if you have any more queries.

Best wishes,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM
