Controlling Panic Attacks with Medications
from:
At least 3% of Americans suffer from panic attacks and a great number of them have their first taste of panic attack as early as their twenties. However this doesn’t mean that anyone younger than twenty is free from panic attack. In fact, panic attack disorder is known to affect various age groups, so nobody can say that he or she is completely safe from this disorder.
Most panic attack disorder patients claim that it’s usually the first attack they can truly describe as extremely traumatic. It’s usually too much stress or depression brought about by certain situations which are the factors that triggers the first attack of panic disorder. However, the good news is the fact that it’s usually not dangerous and doesn’t cause great harm. On the other hand, full blown attacks only last for a few minutes and are also not life-threatening.
Although the attacks aren’t that alarming, a panic disorder is still a scary experience. Just imagine feeling like you’re having a heart attack, you can’t breathe and feel as if you’re going crazy. These are just some of the nightmares panic disorder patients have to go through. Others also feel as if something is wrong with their body and this causes them to panic even more.
There are certain clues that determine whether a person is experiencing a panic attack, such as uncontrollable sweating as well as fast beating of the heart. Most people who experience this often end up in the hospital. Panic disorder patients usually calm down after they’re told there’s nothing wrong with them and that they’re perfectly fine.
Reassuring panic disorder patients is actually one way of controlling the attack. Fortunately, panic attacks usually disappear quickly which really puts the patients mind at peace knowing that the attack is just temporary.
The only problem with experiencing a panic attack is in terms of its effect on the body. The problem is, after the body has experience a panic attack, it will become more sensitive, which causes the body to become overly receptive or too alert, which increases the risk of a second panic attack. A continuous attack can soon advances to the condition known as a panic disorder.
The impact of the panic attack to a patient usually lessen with the succeeding attacks, but they’re still scary. There are some patients who suffer everyday panic attacks and most of them are unpredictable and are usually triggered by situations that cause the first attack.
Panic Attack Medications
A panic disorder is still curable and certain medications have proven effective in controlling this type of disorder. Most of the medications given to panic disorder patients usually lessen the occurrence of panic attacks. In the past doctors usually prescribed antidepressants to hinder panic disorder from attacking.
Sample of the antidepressants prescribed include Tricyclic Antidepressant which is like Imipramine or Tofranil. Another new type of antidepressant being given to patients is called Serotenorgic Reuptake Inhibitors or SSRIs which is also known for its effectiveness in controlling panic attacks.
The only problem with medication is that it usually takes several weeks to take effect, which is often too slow to help patients return to their everyday life. Not all patients cope well with medications. Some just can’t tolerate the side effects, which is also the reason why some patients relapse, since they often stop taking their medicines.
