I certainly have... Many times, but not always with my own panic attacks I would have uncontrollable itching after the uncontrollable heart racing had begun to settle. Itching was normally in the extremities (hands and feet). I believe it has something to do with the rapid fluctuation in blood pressure...

Anxiety medications are prescribed by physicians who have examined a patient and reached preliminary conclusions about their problems and how they should be addressed. There are several medications that work well in specific circumstances, but we cannot advise or recommend what might be best for you.

You could well be asking for even more problems.
