Dear lybrate-user,
you psychiatrist knows your diagnosis and treatment algorithms. Sizodon or quetiapine is given to augment fluoxetine and atomoxetine - not just for insomnia. They are given at low dose also. Still you need to make lifestyle changes to control your weight, sugar levels and other medical illnesses. (i don't know your age - but I know your weight as 104 kg). Don't worry about withdrawals now - it is a long way.

Hello,
the slowness of the child is due to developmental delay either due to hypoxia or inherent brain formation. As you. Have not mentioned any details about his behaviour its difficult to pin point the cause of slow development, but I feel that medicines may not help him and I will tell you why.
Of course he does require lacosam in correct dosage to control his seizures so that he does not have recurrent seizures.
Frankly personally I feel that neuciti plus and nicerbium are not go...more
