Is it okay to take my sisters prescription panic attack medicine?
Foosa asked:
Often before going on airplanes, I take my sisters panic attack medicine. I could not tell you exactly what it is called though. I am 14 years old and I do take it with an adults supervision. Although I do ride in airplanes often, I am still quite afraid of them. Do you think it is still okay to use it, or should I not use it before going on planes because I am not prescribed it? I don’t need it for anything else, I don’t get random panic attacks or anything.

I would not recommend taking the medication since you were not prescribed it.
I would recommend talking to your doctor about the panic attacks that you have before going on planes to see what they would recommend to help in dealing with this.
