Anybody ever have them? I had one last night again and I felt like I was going to die?
I had an attack about (4) months ago (scares the living sht otta ya btw) and the doctor prescribed me Niravam that disolves under the tongue. I guess Niravam is another form of Xanax.
I going thru a bad bout of Lyme right now and have been treating it for (3) weeks now and don't really feel much better now then I did (3) weeks ago
. My fuken neck won't stop hurting and im nauseous all day long! I am assuming the panic attack is related in some way or another to my Lyme or maybe im just dying?
My Niravam is 0.5mg. I took (1) and it didn't seem to help so I took another and that didn't seem to help so I took a third and eventauuly after (20) minutes or so I started to come back to Earth.
Anyone have a recommeded dosage or Niravam or Xanax to take when a panic attack hits? I probably should have taken (3) at once. Anyone have any advice or suggestions?
Niravam and Xanax chemical name alprazolam are both the same and are scheduled benzodiazopines.
Im suprised it took 1.5mg of alprazolam to curb the anxiety especially if you arent a daily user of it. That chit is no joke and has a high rate of dependancy if taken for a long time. It is abused by many people for rec use unfortunately. It can become a crutch. The maximum daily dose is 3mg if i recall. Taken as needed
(Which to anyone reading this it means that you dont always take the max dose every day!). 1.5 mg in 20 min is a lot for someone not used to taking it. Im suprised it didnt put you to sleep. Dont drive or operate machinery after taking it. The dose is dependant upon the severity of the attacks and the amount prescribed by the doctor. Everyone is different. If i took 1.5 mg of alprazolam id probably fall asleep and not wake up for a long time since ive never taken it.
