A member asked:
Is there something they will give me for anxiety when i'm doing the ultrasound test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessary: An ultrasound is a painless exam. There should be no need for an anxiolytic medication. If you have a condition that will cause you to have undue anxiety for an ultrasound, you should discuss it with your physician so that proper measures can be taken, and medication prescribed in the rare event that it is needed.
