To keep this short and simple, I had a bad night of indigestion and couldn’t sleep the whole night. I woke up with my first panic attack ever, unsurprisingly I was sent to the ER thinking I was having a heart attack. Since then I’ve had about 10-15 panic attacks this week. I’ve been to the ER multiple times, and I’ve talked to my PCP. 

I was just prescribed BusPar and I’m reading it’s not for panic attacks at all! Infact it has a build up period. I was also prescribed hydroxine but I’m so drowsy for days after. Do I speak to my PCP about this? I don’t have a connection with a psychiatrist yet. I told my PCP about the supposed build up time but he told me it helps him with his panic attacks. Any recommendations on what to tell my PCP? Or do I give the BusPar a shot?
