Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related doubtsI can understand your concern. You have Panic disorder and have persistent recurrent panic attacks. Klonopin is a good drug for control of panic symptoms but even with this drug your symptoms are persisting. You can talk with your doctor and can use the drug on SOS basis more frequently for symptomatic relief. If the symptoms persist then in addition to Klonopin drugs like Propranolol or Atenolol on SOS basis can be used. Propranolol can be used with combination of Klonopin. This will control the symptoms.For treatment you are on three antipsychotics, anti depressants and anti anxiety drugs. Antidepressants like SSRIs can be used for treatment. SSRIs help to treat depression and anxiety symptoms and are safe to use. Please visit your psychiatrist for opinion.Thanks and Take care
