First of all I wanna thank to all of you as you all are doing great work by helping others. So my query is as I have generalized SA problem and doctor prescribed me etilaam 0.5 mg two times daily and betacap 40 occasionally and also told me for therapy too. But problem is that betacap is not safe for asthmatics. So which medicine should I take occasionally like in interviews to reduce nervousness and anxiety attacks (excessive perspiration). Thanks in advance.
