Due to anxiety disorder as per Dr. Advice I have taken rivotril 1/2 tablet once a day for one month and then quit rivotril and taken nexito plus 1/2 tablet once a day for one week and then 1/4 tablet once a day for one month. Now as per advice I have quitted nexito plus from last 15 days and not taking any medicine. Now I am not getting adequate sleep and having headache and sometimes tinnitus in ear and headache. Is it because of withdrawal symptoms of nexito plus?

It is more likely due to relapse of anxiety, since you have tapered the dose, it is unlikely withdrawal symptoms are there. Good luck

Symptoms you are facing may not be due to withdrawal but due to short course treatment. In ideal way, you should take 1 medicine (nexito plus) 1/2 for atleast 6 months and if you get no anxiety symptoms could taper it to 1/4 for 2 to 3 months and than stop it. At least 9 months therapy is advised for good results.
