> which ssri is best for panic?
I've tried them all. My vote for a panic disorder is Zoloft. We're all different though. You wouldn't have known it from the fine hand tremor it gave me, but it made me quite cool and collected in any situation. Wish it would have been as effective for the depression. JohnL

I used Prozac (80 mgs though) and it worked. I wonder what Dr. Bob would recomend.

I don't know of any evidence that there *is* a best SSRI for panic - they all seem to work about equally well, and for about equal percentages of people. There is often, however, a best SSRI for a particular *person*.

I disagree. I don't think that Celexa is good for panic. I wonder why....

Why do you think that? (Whether or not it was good for you personally should not enter into it.)
