I have been using tranquilizers and depression medicines for the last 18 years. My depression occurred due to extreme tension and tiredness in work at the age of puberty. My father and friends forbade me to exert such pressure and exertion on myself as I was devoted to work and studies and did both at the same time but I didn't pay heed and the result is I am in never ending depression which kills me and I am unable to get sleep without these medications. My diagnosis is schizophrenia, bipolar and depression. I am never married single of age 36 years. The medications are ziprasidone hcl 40 mg, ozip plus 3/25 mg and qusel 100 mg all at night. I am having complaint of extreme headache and pain in head muscles and head meat. Doctor prescribed me naproxen 500 mg which cured me but the headache reoccurred when I stopped naproxen 500 mg after 10 doses. The doctor again prescribed me this along with sibelium 5 mg (flunarizine hcl). I google and found that sibelium interacts with depression medicines and tranquilizers and is forbidden for depression patients. My question is shall I take sibelium 5 mg at night along with my above mentioned tranquilizers? Please help me.
