Medications with GABAergic properties, such as pregabalin (Lyrica) and gabapentin (Neurontin), have been shown to be effective in GAD and for postherpetic neuralgia and fibromyalgia and partial seizures.While the medications mentioned above could be life-changing for a lot of anxiety sufferers who are prone to anxiety, psychotherapy and exercising are also important in reducing anxiety.
