"i have suffered from anxiety and panic disorders for all of my adult life.  when i was diagnosed with leukemia, my level of anxiety was at at all time high, because it also caused severe bone pain.  my pain-management doctor had some samples of niravam. the first week i tried it, my life was changed in a huge way.  it goes to work so quickly, if most effective and the half-life of this medicine seems short, so you aren&#039;t being &quot;over-medicated&quot;.  i&#039;ve suggested it to others with the same disorder, but sadly, most doctors have never heard of it. i appreciate a safe, effective medication and just wish that more doctors were aware that it&#039;s more effective and no or very few side-effects, so they can benefit more patients."
