Medications for Anxiety

Medications used to treat anxiety disorders.

Anxiety is a feeling of fear, dread, and uneasiness that can cause physical symptoms like sweating, restlessness, and a rapid heartbeat. While it can be a normal response to stress, such as before a big decision or test, anxiety can become overwhelming for those with anxiety disorders. These disorders involve persistent anxiety that can worsen over time and interfere with daily activities like work and relationships. Common symptoms include anxious thoughts that are hard to control, physical discomfort like dizziness or shortness of breath, and changes in behavior, such as avoiding situations that trigger anxiety. A variety of prescription medications are available to help manage anxiety. If you are experiencing anxiety, it’s important to talk with your doctor about the best treatment options for you.
