Etilaam pro contains etizolam and propranolol, which act on the symptoms of anxiety (mild) and do not modify the cause of panic attacks, which is serotnergic imbalance in the mind (brain). So ideal treatment based on the frequency of panic attacks would be a course of ssris if they are very frequent. If they occur once in 3-6 month or so, clonazepam is ideal choice. Good luck.

Dear Yasha,
Both clonazepam and etizolam are NOT medicines for OCD. They belong to benzodiazepine group of anxiolytics. You don't gain weight by these medicines, if you maintain the usual diet and exercise schedule.

Dear Aashi,
No drug is safe. You need to take it whenever the benefit exceeds the side effect. If you are using it without doctor's prescription, if you feel safe in storing the tablet, if you are increasing the dose over years, if your main worry is getting the tablet and if you are neglecting your responsibilities, probably you have become dependent on it.
If you are using it to reduce your anxiety, it is better that you learn a non medical method of managing your anxiety.

Hi lybrate-user,
you need to discuss with your psychiatrist to further optimize your classic anti-anxiety or antidepressant drugs (escitalopram dose can be further build up to 20 mg per day and if needed another medicine can be added to augment effect of escitalopram) before tapering off and stopping etizolam. It's happening because your anxiety and depression is not yet completely remitted. Whole body blood reports have to be normal before calling it anxiety disorder. Vitamin d has to be ta...more

You need to combine medication with therapy to get the maximum benefits of both. Although this is a long term disease, and you will probably remain for long on medication you must still persevere. Schizophrenia is a very complex and difficult disease to treat, even with medication. All psychotropic medicines have side-effects: that is inescapable. But I suspect that you are depending entirely on medication when in reality you need to combine it with counselings or therapy. In therapy you will le...more
