What Are The Possible Medication For Anxiety?

yes thank u, I am taking Levothyroxine 50 mcg tabs and Bupropion hcl xl 150 mg tab currently daily. I am not one that likes to take much in medication. I had my little dog put to sleep this a m and I am not taking it well.He was my life. I do have some anxiety med from before that had been prescribed but I really never liked to take them. they r alprazolam .5mg and I have also clonazepam .5mg tab. These were prescribed way prior to the ones I cuurently take and I need something at the moment to help me thru and I want to make sure there r no interractions. please advice and thank u. Liz

HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

You may have anxiety symptoms due to thyroid dysfunction or underline anxiety disorder. If your thyroid profile is normal, then you need antidepressant that could control it. Bupropion is good antidepressant, but not effective in controlling anxiety. Better to take paroxetine that would help you to control it. You can also do relaxation exercise.

Thanks
