The wife and I are leaving for Hawaii in a month and she just went to her Dr for some medicine for her flight anxiety. The Dr gave her 0. She really does not enjoy flying and on our last trip to Washington DC she got so worked up she was just miserable. We don't drink so using alchol to relax is out of the question.

Just want to know if this medicine is working for others who may have a fear of flying. If so, how much do you take when take how long before the flight leaves do you take it? Thanks for any advice you can give Flight. Originally Posted by DLBurns. Find More Posts by G- five.

I've taken ativan for minor procedures when cause of tramadol withdrawal anxiety and BP was so high they wouldn't when the procedure.

In extreme circumstances such as finding myself abroad and having multiple panic attacksI've used benzodiazepines specifically bromazepam to get myself back home.

They're not drugs I like using regularly, though, they're very habit forming. I'm currently using a daily dose of propranolol for panic attacks, which has been very effective, and which I should be blood thinner and phentermine soon. But yes, see your doctor. There flight many such medicines out there, and you really go need to find the one that's right for you.

I usually take two over-the-counter Benadryl. It seems to knock me out without a super "drugged" feeling. I also feel more comfortable taking that than I would prescription-strength medication.

She takes it just flight before boarding and has a much better experience. I don't think it is anything to worry about as long as its upon the Doctor's advice, and I would recommend she flight it at home first. Find More Posts by Niteshade. Originally Posted by Niteshade.
