Yes, when I can feel a panic attack coming on, I take a beta blocker (I've tried several, and Sectral works the quickest and is most effective for me). I am a recovering alcoholic as well, so I avoid anything like Xanax or Klonopin, but in extreme panic (or a weekend with my mother, LOL), I will take 5mg Tranxene, a very mild sedative. I hope this helps.
