Brief Answer: Paroxetine is a good drug for anxiety Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query. I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through. Anxiety disorder especially the pajic disorders are very troublesome. I see many such patients in my clinic. But the best part is they get treated as well very nicely. There are many drugs ueeful fro.panic disorder pike venlafaxine or paroxetine or kortazapine etc. Among these drugs paroxetine is considered as the drug of choice for panic disorders. Prozac is genrally avoided in anxiety disorder as it is activating drug and may precipitate some panic attacks. Similarly comingnto the choice of benzodiazepine tonbe taken in pajic disorder, I dont prefer lorazepam as it has an action duration for 6-8hours only. There after the withdrawal from lorazepam can aslo precipitate a panic. Hence i prefer prescribing clonazepam for panics along with paroxetine. Coming to your sdcond part, yes, cognitive behavioural therapy will deffinately help you in panic disorder.
