Anxiety Pills For Social Anxiety Disorders - Should You Consider Them?
Anxiety Pills for Social Anxiety Disorder/Phobia
These medications address the tension associated with the disorders, relieving its symptoms, such as shyness, sweaty palms, or an unusually fast heartbeat. They are:
a) The Beta Blockers Tenormin and Inderal
b) Benzodiazepines – usually Xanax or Klonopin
c) MAOIs – especially Nardil (recently shown to be most effective against social phobia, registering a dramatic improvement rate in 70% of patients in 4 weeks)
Beta Blockers:
Beta blockers are used to treat heart conditions, but are also prescribed for anxiety disorders. By blocking the effects of norepinephrines, it is able to alleviate symptoms of panic attacks such as tremors and heart palpitations. They are hence useful for situations where the user is aware of the possibility of panic attacks occurring, such as before public speaking.
Anxiety Pills for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
These drugs do NOT prevent OCD from occurring. Instead, they lessen its intensity so that the individual can use self-help methods to keep symptoms in check.
a) SSRIs – e.g., Luvox and Prozac (both vetted by the FDA for OCD), Paxil, Zoloft
b) Antidepressants – Anafranil (approved by the FDA for OCD) and Effexor
For those with tics or spasms (e.g., blinking) – seen in 20% of Americans afflicted with OCD – some doctors combine SSRI anxiety pills with the drug Haldol (haloperidol).
