Ambulax Hd tablet is a prescription medication used to treat anxiety disorders. It can also be used for panic disorder and anxiety related to depression. Anxiety disorder is a mental health condition

Propranolol helps manage cardiac symptoms of anxiety. Ambulax Hd tablet should be taken in the prescribed dosage and duration as advised by your doctor. This medication should not be stopped suddenly without consulting your doctor, as it can cause clinical worsening of your condition or may lead to withdrawal-like symptoms.
