Would Xanax Work For Me?
UpdatedI was labeled with panic disorder about three years ago. I've had Klonopin prescribed while I was on suboxone and alto it helped a little tiny bit, it was not nearly enough. I was taking two mg three times daily. Along with 20 mg suboxone daily. That's two and a half pills. I panic for no good reason. My chest is always hurting and heavy and I can't ever catch my breath.

You might have Heart or Lung disease? You don't want to mask these symptoms with Xanax
However, for panic disorder, yes these types of medications can be helpful.
The FDA classifies it as a benzodiazepine, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability.
But, if your symptoms are that extreme, you may do better with a medication that you take regularly to help keep them under control, such as an SSRI.
What has your doctor advised?
