Brief Answer:
Xanax is drug of choice

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Thanks for using health care magic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

The drug of choice for panic disorder is xanax and can be used from 0.25 mg to 1 mg on first time. For sebsequent episodes the gose is 0.25 to 3 mg.

I think if you have access for the medication it should be used immediately provided you stillhave panic attacks.


I hope this helps you.

If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.

I will be glad to assist you further.

Thanks and regards

Brief Answer:
Online prescription never honoured

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Thanks for reverting back to me.

I am sorry to inform you that online prescription is never a possibility for xanax as it is regulated medication and have high potential for abuse. You are requested to start deep breathing in case of emergency and call emergency services.
