I'm having trouble getting my hands on Modus 10mg since the pharmacy says it's out of stock. I was only able to take it for 10 days instead of the 20 that were prescribed. Is there an alternative medication with the same dosage that I could take? Really appreciate any advice you could give.

I've been prescribed petril beta 10 for my anxiety, and I'm wondering if it's safe to take it regularly and for a long period. If it's not recommended, are there any other medications for anxiety besides SSRIs? I've tried escitalopram and paroxetine before, but they make me feel really sedated.

Consult your Psychiatrist he will advise which one is best for you
