In the meantime, you can help manage these symptoms by avoiding triggers: try to eat regular meals, do not delay using the restroom, take your doses consistently, and use deep breathing to ease sudden fear.

They can review your complete medication list to ensure there are no harmful interactions and guide you safely through the transition. Please do not stop or change your dose without their guidance.
