My daughter was diagnosed with severe anxiety disorder and was on medication. She was taking risdone 0.5 mg twice daily, rexipra 5 mg once daily and waklert 150 once daily since she was feeling to drowsy due to risdone. Many of her problems such as irritability, anger ,concentration lack improved with medication but the major problem she is facing now is that she is unable to memorize topics inspite of giving lots of efforts though there is no understanding and concentration problem this problem makes her restless. Her doctor asked to increase dose of rexipra 5 mg from one tablet to one and half tablet and to take one tablet of cognivel with risdone and waklert also advice for counseling. Doctor also said that if she feels better she can take 2 tablets of rexipra 5 mg and 2 tablets of cognivel daily. Would these new medicines help her to memorize topics? Can she increase dose of rexipra and cognivel if feels better with initial dose? She has attend just one counseling session. She stays in hostel so she is unable to attend counseling sessions regularly. It may take long to complete counseling sessions so can she continue cognivel, rexipra, risdone and waklert till then?
