Dog anxiety medications such as clomipramine and fluoxetine (antidepressants) are prescribed when a dog develops a serious anxiety disorder and is regularly under a lot of stress.
On the other hand, if your dog’s anxiety is triggered by specific events such as fireworks or hurricanes, your veterinarian will prescribe benzodiazepine (one of the most common anti-anxiety meds), so you can help your dog cope with anxiety during those stressful situations.
