Tranquilizers are medicines used to relax the body and mind and calm them down. These are the best choices for the treatment of anxiety and insomnia and sometimes muscle relaxation. Some of the side effects are drowsiness, dizziness, and confusion. Memory loss is one of the side effects that could occur, particularly when using the drugs for a long period with high doses. Besides these, it is important to be careful with the doctor if you feel any adverse symptoms.

Hi, I am 35 F being treated for treatment resistant depression. I am on this regimen for 7 days now and have developed a benign rash allover my body. I am taking duloxtene, lustral, vilazodone, lamictal, and lurasidone. Please verify of these drugs don't have any serious interactions and what to do with my rash.

Female | 34

The drugs that you have mentioned are solely for the treatment of depression, and the great news is that they do not create any major interactions. The rash might be a result of the use of one of the medications, possibly Lamictal. Rashes can often occur while one takes this drug. I suggest you reach out to your doctor, inform them about the new symptom, and find out the best way to address it.

Hie I'm ishita I'm 19 yrs old ..so idk why I'm feel anxious continuously nd I feel shivernesss and something in my abdomen nd my chest becomes heavy

Female | 19

It is anxiety that you are facing. This can lead to trembling, palpitation, shortness of breath, and stomach tightness.  Try taking deep breaths, talking to someone you trust, and doing activities you enjoy. Drinking water and receiving enough sleep may help, too. It's important to keep reminding yourself that the feelings you have are normal and that the situation may get better eventually.

I have ocd and I take 100mg of sertraline in the morning and 0.5 mg of clonazepam at night but now I am having difficulty in sleeping at night so can I take 1mg of clonazepam at night, please suggest me.

Male | 30

Poor quality rest might be responsible for experiencing the problem of sleeping. This means that you should be extra careful when attempting to change medications. Clonazepam results in disrupted sleep meaning that increasing the dose doesn't make it better.

I visited a psychiatrist and he prescribed me these meds. Daxtin 20mg Daxtin 40mg Fluvoxamine 50mg Etilaam .25mg Explain these medicines from all perspective and help me get a pros and cons list

Male | 21

Here's some brief information about the medicines that your psychiatrist has recommended: 1. Daxtin 20mg and Daxtin 40mg: These are prescribed for depression. These drugs can help increase the serotonin and norepinephrine levels, improving your mood and energy. 2. Fluvoxamine 50mg: It's also great for depression and anxiety. It works better for sleep and decreases the level of anxiety. 3. Etilaam 0.25mg: It cures anxiety and panic attacks. Positive: Such products have the potential to alleviate depression, give you a good night's sleep, and anxiety at a manageable level. 

Negative: It might bring alongside other effects such as vomiting, giddiness, and drowsiness. In other words, these medications are intended to make you feel better, but they can also cause other health problems. Do not stop taking them on your own – always take them as your doctor has prescribed and notify them of any discrepancies in your condition!

So, i took a 30mg codeine tablet. Then 5 minutes later i forgot i had taken it. So took another. So iv taken 60mg in 1sitting. Will i be ok. Im 33 weigh about 10st4. Relatively mind strong. I was just curios

Male | 34

If you take 60mg of codeine all at once, it is more likely to cause some side effects. One of the side effects is that you may become very sleepy, feel dizzy, or have problems with breathing. Whenever a medicine reaction like the one described here happens, it is best to remain calm and save your life without increasing the doses further. In addition, it is recommended to stay hydrated, sit down, and be observant of the body's feelings for possible encounters.

Overthinking and repetitive behaviours

Male | 23

Feeling mentally overwhelmed and stuck in repetitive patterns for an extended period can be a sign of anxiety. This may lead to symptoms like restlessness, sleep disturbances, and heightened alertness. The causes of anxiety can vary, ranging from stress and genetics to imbalances in brain chemicals. To manage these feelings, practicing mindfulness, exercising, and talking to someone can significantly improve your well-being.

I was taken daxid 50 mg tablet .I am feared that tablet side effects.if any problem are effected male sexual hormone level

Male | 19

It is completely understandable to worry about the side effects of a medicine. Male hormone levels can be affected by Daxid 50 mg occasionally. This might lead to symptoms such as low sex drive or difficulty in achieving an erection. The reason for this is that the drug has an impact on serotonin levels in the brain. If you are going through these things, it would be best to talk to your doctor about them.

Taking 3 yellow be­tapam pills at once is extreme­ly risky. Betapam treats anxiety disorde­rs. But overdosing can induce seve­re dizziness, exce­ssive sleepine­ss, and dangerously slowed breathing – a se­rious overdose situation requiring urge­nt medical attention. Neve­r exceed your doctor's re­commended dosage.

Female | 40

Your irregular e­ating habits can negatively impact your well-be­ing. Morning hunger leads to sluggishness and lack of focus. Me­ager afternoon and eve­ning meals deprive your body of vital nutrie­nts. Aim for balanced meals containing fruits, veggie­s, proteins, and carbs throughout the day.
