Hi,
As you told that your daughter had a panic attack,she had to be prescribed with drugs to calm her(at least for the acute phase and might be removed after one month and she might not even have an attack later in her life if she can stops taking stress,but this is to be seen later), dose will be decided only on the basis of her examination.
Rest other symptoms also indicate that she had nervousness and was a anxid child and may be due to stress she might have had a panic attack.
Now for the adverse effects it might cause dry mouth,nausea,drowsiness,stomach upset,tremor,sweating,dizziness.
If any of the side effects trouble her then immediately visit a doctor but these drugs will take time to adjust with her body and may be that takes around 5-7 days.
The drug are necessary inspite of side effects,becauase of their good effects.
