How the NewJerseyDoc visit works

The NewJerseyDoc visit starts with a structured intake covering symptoms, medications, allergies, and prior treatment response. A New Jersey-licensed physician (NJ) reviews whether anxiety medication management is appropriate, whether labs are required, and whether another approach is safer. If a prescription is indicated, it is sent to a pharmacy the patient can use in New Jersey. That prescription is not a referral to a New York City or Philadelphia clinic.

Follow-up is scheduled when treatment starts. Chronic therapies are commonly rechecked at about four weeks, then every one to three months, or sooner if side effects appear.

What happens next

If you want to know whether anxiety medication management is appropriate, start a visit. You will leave with a clear yes, a different plan, or a referral. NewJerseyDoc does not guarantee a prescription.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why avoid controlled substances for anxiety?
We focus exclusively on non-controlled medications to avoid dependence risk, withdrawal complications, and scheduling restrictions. This allows us to provide safe, effective treatment without controlled substance management concerns.
What medications do you prescribe for anxiety?
We prescribe SSRIs (paroxetine, sertraline), SNRIs (venlafaxine), buspirone, hydroxyzine, and beta-blockers. All are non-controlled substances that effectively manage anxiety symptoms.
How do you manage medication discontinuation safely?
We use gradual tapering schedules for SSRIs and SNRIs, monitor for discontinuation symptoms, and provide supportive care during medication changes. Our approach minimizes withdrawal effects.
Do you treat panic attacks with medication?
Yes, we treat panic attacks with SSRIs and SNRIs for both acute episodes and prevention. We understand serotonin modulation for long-term prevention and can use beta-blockers for immediate physical symptoms.
What about propranolol for anxiety?
Propranolol is excellent for performance anxiety and physical symptoms. It blocks beta-adrenergic receptors, reducing heart rate and tremor without affecting cognition or causing dependence.
