How it works
Serotonin enhancement reduces amygdala hyperreactivity and lowers the threshold for the autonomic alarm response. Full benefit requires 4–6 weeks at therapeutic dose.
Prescription only. Paradoxically, SSRIs can temporarily increase anxiety and panic frequency in the first 1–2 weeks — start at low dose and titrate slowly. Do not stop abruptly.
