Best antipsychotic to augment SSRI for panic?

Posted by SpratNZ on March 23, 2014, at 4:16:07

Hi

I've had agoraphobia with panic attacks for 25 years now - SSRI's worked beautifully at first, but had a tendancy to poop out after about 3 years. Now I've been through them all - pdoc has me back on Paxil but it's only working at about 50%. I'm taking 1mg of clonazepam at the same time but still get panic attacks. I'm not keen to go long term on the clonazepam because the amount I need practically knocks me out. My Pdoc is keen to augment the Paxil with an antipsychotic - while this makes me quite nervous, I fear I've run out of other options. Is there any particular antipsychotic that would be suited for panic disorder?

Thanks
Jackie
