I thought I am suffering from depression and panic attacks. So I went to the doctor. He told me to take ativan 1 mg and tryptomer 10 mg tablets. Will this tablets help me? How long should I take this.

Though it will help for a longer run you might be needing SSRI, snri or tca group of medications along with cognitive behaviour therapy. So consult a psychiatrist. All the best.

Hello, depression and panic attacks will get better gradually with treatment ativan is for short term management of anxiety. Usually taken for upto 4 weeks tryptomer is a tricylic antidepressant. Antidepressants need to be taken for atleast 6 months to a year on a daily basis. If tryptomer is not tolerable, you can discuss with your doctor about trying other medicines like ssris. Also try meditation and regular exercise.
