Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have panic disorder when I have to take a plane..my doc gave me xanax, however as I might be pregnant I can not take it. which other alternatives do I have to calm dowm my anxiety? in the pharmacy they gave me navidoxine, do you think this will help my anxiety when flying?
Navidoxine contain meclozine and pyridoxine. Meclozine has anti emetic action and it is safer in pregnancy. During pregnancy, anxiety and vomiting usually stays due to hormonal imbalance. Try to avoid benzodiazepine including xanax due to its sedative effect on new born child. In case, it stays for longer period, you can try antidepressant after your doctor consultation. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
