Need advice on taking Zoloft with buspirone for panic attacks

So I am currently taking buspirone for panic attacks and I don’t think it’s helping that much. My dr just prescribed me Zoloft, but I am scared to take it because of the side effects. Has anyone else taken this combination, and if so, did it help or make it worse?

i’m on this combo and it works great for me. the only side effects i’ve noticed are dry mouth and low sex drive. my dose has changed throughout the years bc of different life circumstances but i’ve been on them since about 13 and i’m now 23
