Anxiety Medication Side Effects

 

Anxiety medications can be powerful when used correctly. Unfortunately, synthetic anxiety medications also have powerful side effects. Tolerance and addiction are two of them. Sedation is a third, which is particularly dangerous when mixing with other medications (like pain killers after surgery). I still use anxiety medications before surgery and anesthesia. That's because the benefits usually (but not always) outweigh risks! These medications are from the benzodiazepine class (like midazolam/versed and diazepam/valium). Natural anxiety medications aren't quite as powerful, but they also have more gentle effects (and side effects). I advocate for the most effective treatment with the fewest side effects whenever possible! Learn more at www.MedicalSecretsMD.com !
