Well,

Cognitive-behavioral therapy, on the other hand, helps patients deal with their stress in a different way by using different forms of breathing techniques and muscle relaxation techniques. Patients who suffer from panic attacks are constantly under the fear of heart attacks and they are reminded that they would not have heart attack, especially during panic attacks.

It has been found that anti depressants help in reducing the anxiety and even the severity with which panic attacks come upon someone. The SSRI or serotonin reuptake inhibitors group of medicines like Prozac and Paxil are often termed as the best medicines that people suffering from panic attacks should take. As these medicines can also cause symptoms of panic attack, it is best to take a small dosage in the beginning and slowly increase the dosage of medication.
