Yes, medication can help reduce anxiety symptoms. Common options include SSRIs, SNRIs, and buspirone. Benzodiazepines may be used short-term. Medication works best combined with therapy. Talk to your doctor for advice. If you have any further questions or need more clarity, please consult with a psychiatrist.
