"This medicine is great. I instantly start feeling calm from head to toe. I like the fact that I don't have to wait 30 minutes or so for it to kick in. I would recommend this to anyone that needs to have a daily life. I also like that I can take it and still function at work."

"I was prescribed this by my doctor as a fast-acting release from anxiety attacks. It helped me come off all medications for my anxiety disorder, now I only take Niravam when I'm having a bad anxiety attack, which is now very rare!"

"I have been taking Niravam for over 2 years now. This is by far the most effective treatment for anxiety/panic attacks that I have tried. However, I am also on Lexapro, Effexor, and Cymbalta, which also help combat anxiety by adjusting neurotransmitters in order to decrease the frequency of attacks. Definitely a great med for those who truly need it!"

"I have a disorder called RSD/CRPS. One of the things this has affected is my hearing and sensitivity to movement, so when I have to get in a large crowd or noisy environment like an airport, I can take one of these, and it dramatically helps since I never know when I will be in a situation like that. It is nice to be able to take a quick-acting medicine to help. It does a great job."

"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 an 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, is most effective, and the half-life of this medicine seems short, so you aren't being 'over-medicated.' I'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's more effective and has no or very few side effects, so they can benefit more patients."
