A member asked:
Can i try a low dose of anti-depressants for my anxiety?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't try any : Medication without meeting with a physician. Psychotropic medications should be prescribed by a psychiatrist although some primary care physicians will prescribe them. Using them for a different condition than what they were designed for should be left to an expert.
