We are not sure ass to why you are on agoprex and if your doctor has prescribed it, obviously it was with good intention and he is the best person for you to answer that question. Since you intend on not using it after one month, it may be reasonable to fix an appointment with your doctor to explore options. Alternatively you can also use Lybrate to take a second opinion.
Look forward to hearing from you. If you need help with booking an appointment online with me on this website either text...more

Insomnia is a sleep disorder in which a person finds it difficult to fall asleep or to stay asleep. Insomnia also includes poor sleep quality, restless sleep, waking up several times during sleep, and feeling un-refreshed or tired after waking up. Homeopathy provides a very safe, effective and non-habit forming treatment of both types of insomnia — acute and chronic. Since the Homeopathic medicines are sourced from natural substances, there are no side-effects.

Dear Rahul,
Agomelatine is a good drug for you without respiratory depression, for natural sleep restoration and no day time drowsiness. As you have mentioned, it will take some weeks to work. The dose may be increased after 3-4 weeks. Please continue Valproate and Lamitor daily without fail to prevent mania.

Hello,
it's great that you are open to new things and are willing to try anything to relieve anxiety. In many cases, medication alone does not help a patient. It has to be coupled with psychotherapy/counselling. And it gives great results. You may check the data all over the internet and supporting medical researches. Try therapy and I am sure, you'll be glad that you tried it.
Take care.

As I can see you are already on multiple antidepressants and that too on pretty high dose. Considering your age it would not be wise to add on any further medicine or increase dosage further. Some medicine might be changed. That needs to be done after a proper and detailed assessment. Preferably consultation by physical presence. Please try to consult some doctor in clinic or at govt. Hospital. Consultation at Lybrate is also possible but in your case I would suggest you to first try going to an...more

Hi, by the list of medications I can understand that you have tried a lot of medicines. Still your problem is not resolved. Since you are near to bangalore the best way I could suggest is visit nimhans bangalore and consult a psychiatrist and a therapist for your current problem you might need more of therapy and a different kind of antipsychotic which works for dysthymia. The medicines which you have mentioned are antidepressants and does not necessarily work in dysthymia.
