ANXIETY MEDICATION

Anxiety medications, or anxiolytics, primarily include SSRIs/SNRIs (antidepressants) like Sertraline, Escitalopram for daily management, and fast-acting Benzodiazepines (e.g., Alprazolam, Diazepam) for short-term panic, alongside others like Buspirone, Beta-blockers (propranolol for physical symptoms), and antihistamines (hydroxyzine). Treatment varies by anxiety type, with antidepressants often for long-term use and benzos for acute relief due to addiction potential, always requiring doctor guidance.
