default
Posted on Mon, 2 Mar 2015
Question: Hi I think I am suffering from anxiety disorder. The only feeling which I have a piercing chest pain. But this pain makes me feel that I am suffering from heart ailment. I take melzap.25 as suggested by my physician on SOS basis. Most of the time I feel ok within half an hour of taking the medicine. But today even after having melzap I am not getting relief which forced me to write here. This feeling is so horrible that I keep fearing that some thing serious will happen to me. I am not able to take decision of going to a psychiatrist and feel I should wait for more time. Please suggest a remedy for this. I get this feeling mostly in the night before going for sleep

Brief Answer:
Possible non cardiac chest pain,needs additional drugs.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,

I understand your query and concern.

As per your history,It seems to be a Generalized Anxiety disorder due to an acute stress.

Your doctor has advised you right treatment but as of now since your symptoms are not relieving you need an increase in dosage of your drug.

So I advise you to take Mezlap 0.5mg along with single dose of Propranolol 10mg.This drug is excellent in controlling chest pain assosciated with anxiety.

Note:These drugs should be taken under strict prescription of your doctor.

Post your further queries if any,
Thank you.
