Panic attacks are severe episodes of sudden anxiety, apprehension or fear. They occur without any real or apparent danger and mostly bring on some form of physical reaction such as dizziness, heart palpitations, dyspnea, nausea and faintness. Panic attacks can be truly frightening and leave the person shaken and deeply upset. Once the mind goes into panic mode, the person losses control over his reactions. Certain situations such as trauma, past experience or phobia can act as triggers. Homeopathic medicines for panic attacks are a natural, healing alternative.
Homeopathic Medicines for Panic Attacks
Homeopathy is a proven alternative treatment option for anxiety related disorders such as panic attacks. Natural and safe, Homeopathic medicines are deep acting and have no side effects on the body. Unlike the conventional mode of medicine, Homeopathic medicines do not supress the disease and its symptoms. In fact, they attack the disorder at the root and set off the body’s own restorative processes, making it strong enough to completely eradicate the disease. Supressing the disease process makes it stubborn. More importantly, they are not habit-forming in nature and can be taken for long durations without the patient becoming dependent on them.
The topmost medicines for panic attacks are Kali Arsenicosum, Aconite and Gelsemium. Kali Arsenicosum is well indicated for acute panic attacks with great anxiety and difficult breathing. Aconite is an excellent medicine for panic attacks, phobias and nightmares with acute restlessness. Gelsemium is effective for panic attacks resulting from bad news and fear of losing self-control.
1. Aconite and Kali Arsenicosum – For Acute Panic Attacks
Aconite and Kali Arsenicosum are two most prescribed medicines for panic attacks which are acute. Aconite works best for panic attacks which come on suddenly and with great intensity. Where the symptoms include great restlessness, fear and inconsolable anxiety, Aconite is the best prescription. In cases where the attack is accompanied by startled looks, anxious face and protruding eyes, Kali Arsenicosum is the most effective among medicines for panic attacks. The person has difficulty breathing and a strong fear of something going wrong. Mental and physical restlessness accompanying an acute panic attack are treated best with Homeopathic medicine Kali Arsenicosum.
2. Arsenic Album, Phosphorus and Aconite – For Panic Attacks with Fear of Death
The most effective medicines for panic attacks with fear of death are Arsenic Album, Phosphorus and Aconite. Arsenic Album is well indicated for panic attacks with fear of death which worsens during the night. Such a person feels anxious about his health, fears getting some incurable disease. Phosphorus is most helpful in case of panic attacks with fear of death, especially when left alone. The person wants sympathy and fears something bad will happen to him. Aconite is another of the most suitable medicines for panic attacks with fear of death and dying. The person believes he will die soon, he even predicts the day of his death. Where the person feels great restlessness and anxiety and tosses and turns in agony, Aconite will help.
3. Lycopodium and Argentum Nitricum – For Panic Attacks in Public Places
The widely prescribed medicines for panic attacks in public places are Lycopodium and Argentum Nitricum. In case of panic attacks during public speaking, fear of strangers, fear of men and fear of being alone, medicine Lycopodium is prescribed. Lycopodium is also one of the best medicines for panic attacks from constant fear of breaking down under stress and stage fright. Argentum Nitricum is most helpful in dealing with panic attacks from fear of high buildings, especially the fear of projecting corners of buildings.
4. Gelsemium and Rhus Tox – For Panic Attacks in Closed Spaces
The most wonderful medicines for panic attacks in closed spaces are Gelsemium and Rhus Tox. Gelsemium is well indicated for nervous dread of appearing in public. Anticipation of an unusual ordeal with lack of courage and fear of losing self-control is effectively treated with Homeopathic medicine Gelsemium. Rhus Tox is one of the most effective medicines for panic attacks in a closed room, especially at night. Weeping without any reason and great restlessness at night are also treated well with Rhus Tox.
5. Medorrhinum and Lycopodium – For Panic Attacks over upcoming Events
Top grade medicines for panic attacks over upcoming performances include Medorrhinum and Lycopodium. Medorrhinum is best selected for panic attacks in anticipation of upcoming events where a person gets into a state of severe panic, especially ahead of the time set for the event. Another of the wonderful medicines for panic attacks due to public speaking and stage fright is Lycopodium. In such cases, the person experiences constant fear of breaking down under stress.
6. Spongia and Kali Arsenicosum – For Panic Attacks from Fear of Heart Disease
In case of panic attacks from fear of heart disease, Spongia and Kali Arsenicosum have shown remarkable results. Spongia is one of the most effective medicines for panic attacks with great anxiety about the heart and fear of heart disease. The anxiety, in such cases, may be accompanied by pain in the heart region and difficulty in breathing. Kali Arsenicosum is another of the marked medicines for panic attacks which result from fear of acquiring a life-threatening disease. The person fears getting heart disease or suffering a stroke. The symptoms to look out for while prescribing Homeopathic medicine Kali Arsenicosum are a frightened face with anxious, protruding eyes.

Dear Doctor,
I, Rajesh (52) have this panic attack problem for the past 8 years. When I was 18 years old,I had hit my head on the door frame when I jumped up in excitement due to some reason. My family members were present and I was taken to the doctor. I had a wound of some severity and it was stitched (4 stitches) by the doctor. From the boyhood itself I had a fear of hitting my head on something thinking that it will affect my brain. After the above mentioned incident this fear increased and the incident got fixed in my mind.
Now if I encounter any difficult situation mentally, like facing the students (I work as guest lecturer in a polytechnic college near my house)when they ask difficult questions, or other, I am suddenly struck by this ‘panic’ condition and I lose my control over my actions. I lose touch with the present and imagine some thing hitting my head. psyco-somatically this creates problems in my body which aggravates the condition. Once triggered it takes 2-3 hours to regain the normal condition.
Please suggest the necessary treatment. I am presently under allopathic treatment.
Dr Sharma My name Manish Bhattacharya I am sevear panic attack patient please suggest a best treatment or medicines.
