I have anxiety and insomnia, and am a PAH patient. What medication can you prescribe?
Asked by Male, 45 · 1 month ago
For anxiety and insomnia in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension, medications must be chosen carefully because many sedatives or strong anti-anxiety drugs may affect breathing or heart function. Short-acting benzodiazepines or certain antidepressants may be used at low doses under the close supervision of a doctor. Non-drug approaches such as relaxation techniques, cognitive behavioural therapy, and good sleep habits are often recommended first to reduce risk. Always consult a doctor before starting any medication.
