Asked for male, 38 years old from Alwar

My question is to Homeopathic Doctors only. I am taking an antidepressant named "DESVENLAFAXINE" which is serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI). When I try to quit I face withdrawal symptoms like electric brain zigzags, noise, imbalance, headache, earache etc. Please tell me the treatment/medicine to withdraw this antidepressant. I am also suffering from BP, diabetes. I request not to suggest for private consultation. Thanks in advance.

Dr. Jayvirsinh Chauhan93%(35817 ratings)

Homeopath•Vadodara

Hello Ashish.
Homoeopathic medicine is selected after knowing full details of the patient.
And for that proper consultation is required.
Even if someone suggest any medicine randomly, you may not get the results.
Then don't blame homoeopathy.

Decide for yourself.

Dear Sir If you are not able to tolerate Quetiapine and if you are experiencing side effects with the medication, please see a psychiatrist in person for a detailed discussion.

You can talk to your psychiatrist for more information. Take care.

You should never stop these medicines without your doctor's advice. Although this medication can be addictive, it is good for your anxiety. If you have the strips with you, please check the expiry date and if it is still within the expiry date, you can take it. But I advise you to meet with your doctor and let her/him monitor your medication. It is also recommended that if you don't want to take the medicine for a long time, you should seek the help of a counselor from whom you will learn skills...more

Supplements like taurine are better taken after a physicians advise. If after taking the same you have anxiety, stop and see if it remits. If it doesn't consult a psychiatrist. Good luck.

Doc has prescribed bupron xl 150 after breakfast. After that am suffering from sleeplessness. I am also taking melatonin 3. I have some anxiety issues. Now doc is saying to take clonazepam .25 instead of melatonin. I am just asking, can anyone take clonazepam .25 & melatonin 3/5 together (altonil plus) or not?

Dr. Pankaj Mahal

MBBS, MD - Psychiatry

Psychiatrist•Karnal

Melatonin helps in sleep initiation and clonazepam helps in all phases of sleep (initiation, maintenance and duration of sleep). Hence, if required then you can take both. However, you can consider of improving your sleep hygiene, if it is deranged.

Psychiatrist•Karnal

Each medication has different mechanism of action, so the above combination can be used, if required. Though generally we try to manage the illness with single medication as much as possible. Consult with your doctor, if he/she can adjust the dose of bupropion which might improve your anxiety, without the need of taking panazap ls.
