Thinking conservatively ... things that worked for me .. medicines: promethazine or hydroxyzine (antihistamines).
Phytotherapy: kava kava and passiflora.
B Vitamins and Magnesium
Dipirone: analgesic and makes me a little drowsy ....
Muscle relaxant at low doses such as cyclobenzaprine .. Use at most 5 mg.
I have never used benzodiazepine and when I am very tense, alcohol also works but I only take it in the last case.
Weaker antihistamines such as fexofenadine and ebastine help but do not act as intensely as CNS sedatives.

sorry to break it, but its called "Thyroid".  Treat your thyroid, you wouldn't have agitation or irritability or gut problems for this ridiculous 7 day POIS.

That said, milder approach is: Ashwaghanda (however its spelled).  You'll feel chill after taking it.  Its adaptogen so works on both hypo and hyper thyroid.
