It is better to avoid such medication for 10-12 years old. Would recommend that you approach a qualified homeopath to release his symptoms. Also this is not a good age to start such medicines, which may have certain unwanted side effects.

Both spasmo-proxyvon and alprax can cause addiction and taking it for so long can cause dependence. For stopping any dependence forming substance most important thing is persistent motivation, support and good detoxification measure. If tried leaving on own you may face withdrawal symptoms. There are various detoxification treatment available with high success rate. Consult a nearby psychiatric clinic or you can consult me for any help required. Best wishes.

Hi Gagan.. Alprax is not a sleep medicine... it is to calm the mind...

Better consult for it... and don't try to give it directly... you may injure yourself or some other...

Hello lybrate-user
if you are taking librax then you should not take alzolam, it will cause more dizziness and other side effects.
I know you take alzolam for sleep
but librax has chlordiazepoxide which also helps in sleep
so you no need to take alzolam when taking librax I hope you find it helpful
if you need any more help, I will be glad to help you sir.

Anxiety is not a steroid, but still a dangerous sleeping pill. On a longer run they will shrink your brain, resulting in early onset dementia, personality changes, memory changes, even withdrawal seizures. Kindly consult a psychiatrist, get your sleep evaluated, and he will gradually wane you off the sleeping pills and give pills which promote sleep by acting on the cause of sleep disturbance, he may also educate you on sleep hyigiene.
