My husband suffered a stroke which was not diagnosed. The doctor prescribed serdep 50. After a month and numerous visits to the doc, I insisted on being referred to a neurologist. After scans etc it was confirmed after being discharged and having lost faith in the original doctor, my husband's blood pressure was very high. He went if to the doc and whilst in the consulting room he had a massive seizure. He was again hospitalized but after scan etc the neurologist said he did not have another stroke. He was again prescribed serdep, start g on half a tablet for 2 weeks then full dose. After the first day on full dose he complained of dizziness and nausea. On the 3rd day after not eating properly, he complained of headaches nausea, lack of appetite, and extreme dizziness. He went to the doctor, his blood pressure was high, as well. The doctor told him to persevere it will get better. Instead of reducing his anxiety it has got worse and he is very miserable. I have been giving him 1000iu of vitamin e and memorex and potassium tablets. He is also on zartan I hope I have put you in the picture. What is your advice thank you in anticipation
