Re: Panic Attacks and Medication -

If you have not had many panic attacks whilst on Lexapro, then it could be possible that it's related, however, by my knowledge the lexapro is an antidepressant and therefore it should still be in your system as it has quite a long half life compared to other drugs (though I can not be sure of this). However, I don't know how long the half life of lexapro is, so it could be wearing off now. If you're becoming very worried about this then you may consider making another appointment with your doctor though you must remember it will take time for prozac to work. I know that when I had panic attacks, I got prescribed BETA blockers, is there any medication you take specifically for your anxiety? I think i'd be more concerned about that medication if you take it.
