Yes, please continue, but after consulting with psychiatrist. Side effect lists are exhaustive. Those relevant to you would be - check bp regularly for venlor xr. Check renal function & thyroid function, and look for weight gain, sleepiness, tremor, drink plenty of water for lithosun. And nothing specific for lonazep - just limit its usage for less than a month at a stretch, or use as and when there are uncontrollable anxiety attacks.

If you were on lithosun before ,i presume you were diagnosed with bipolar affective disorder or it was used for severe depression. Either way if you are noticing relapsing symptoms, please contact your psychiatrist for restarting medicines as lithium needs monitored. If not monitored it can cause sever side effects like kidney damage or thyroid dysfunction.

Hi lybrate-user I will suggest you to never stop medicines without asking your doctor because the symptoms will relapse again and you will be in problem again so always ask your doctor that whether you can reduce medicine or not. And for anxiety you can start breathing exercises for time being and for negative thoughts start writing one positive thought daily. I hope this will help you thank you stay healthy.
