Dear Lybrate User,
What kind of assistance you need from me?
She has been diagnosed and given prescription of cilentra 10 mg. i don't know for how many days, the prescription was given. May be for 2-3 weeks.
Please give it to mother and follow up with the same doctor with improvement, side effects if any, without stopping cilentra 10 mg.
Does your mother have any medical problems and is she on any other medication?

Stop taking All these Medicines of Depression. For your menstrual cycle consult Gynecologist. Take care of your health. Eat well, sleep well, exercise and Do yoga and Pranayam. Still if you feel any problem consult Psychologist Not Psychiatrist.

The medical drug which is present in above brand is escitalopram which has not shown significant interaction with pregnancy and can be taken during pregnancy if advised by your psychiatrist as per your clinical condition. 5 mg and 10 mg are the strength of the medication and final dose will depend on your clinical status and response to the medication. Contact your psychiatrist for further discussion regarding dosage.

All brands from quality pharma companies are good and about the same price. But there are some not so standard pharma s and some duplicate medications which carries the name, but might be a duplicate. All the best
