Health food stores and some chemists (pharmacists) carry it.

I carry rescue remedy in my purse. I use it before driving a long distance and immediately if I am feeling anxious. It takes the edge off. Also, I use rescue sleep which helps me get to sleep at night. I obtain these products from vitacost.com.Going out of my house without rescue remedy is not an option.

PEACE

its a herbal remedy (hang on jus let me get it out mi pocket) its made by bach its an original flower remedy, to comfort and reassure, ingredients: 5 x dilution of flower extracts of rock rose, impatiens, clematis, star of bethlehem, cherry plum in a grape seed alcohol solution!!!!! to me it tastes like a mild brandy, i get it in UK from the chemist or health food shop, personally i do think its mind over matter but it works for me and worth every penny.

I agree with Prizma. For me with my high anxiety and when I get panic attacks
it does not work. But we are all unique. Just give it a go. There are sprays and drops.
I did not know there are pastilles ...not where I live.

I keep it in my purse all the time. I never found it effective against a panic attack or extreme anxiety however there was the calming effect of knowing I had SOMETHING just in case. It's completely mind over matter in my case.

I've tried it twice this year and to be honest, it didn't do anything. The pastilles were tasty though.

From what I read the flowers are diluted and so the amount of flower concentrate in the remedy is so little. Apparently some clinical studies done on the remedy show that the effect of the remedy is no better than placebo. My opinion many drugs have the placebo effect, so if it works for you, placebo or not, take it to calm yourself.
