I am 60 years old with depression, anxiety and schizophrenia since 1987. Recently, I am put on nexito 20 mg 1-0-0 for depression/anxiety and fluanxol 1 mg 1-0-0 and 3 mg 0-0-1 and sizopin 25 mg 0-0-1 for schizophrenia. I am also put on clonotril 0.25 mg 1-1-1 for anxiety and panic attacks. I am also prescribed pacitane 2 mg 1-1-0 to ward off the side effects of fluanxol. There is a lot of relief. For your information, I am diabetic (since 2007) and asthmatic also (since birth). My queries are as follows:- a) is fluanxol contra-indicated to diabetic and anti- asthmatic drugs? For diabetes, I am on glyciphage 500 mg 1-0-1 and deriphyllin retard 150 mg 1-0-1 for asthma. Sugar content in blood is within normal limits. B) recently I have shown signs of chest heaviness and am feeling uncomfortable. Is it due to fluanxol? Please answer point wise and for your information, these queries are for general information and also as a second opinion and not as a consultation. Please reply point wise without missing out a single detail as I have got great faith in you. Looking forward for your reply at the earliest. Thanks.
