Buspin 5Mg Tablet Health Feed

I have been on antidepressants for past 11 years for anxiety disorder. I was on escitalopram for last 3 years and it stopped working. My current psychiatrist started me on buspirone, clomipramine, fluvoxamine and clonazepam. I got some improvement and reached the doses buspirone 10 mg 1-0-1, fluvoxamine 100 mg 1-0-1, clomipramine 75 mg 0-0-1 and clonazepam 0.25 1-0-1 I was having intolerable side effects and I missed one dose of clomipramine and problems started again. I told my psychiatrist that only escitalopram and duloxine had worked for me. Then he stopped buspirone and clomipramine and reduced fluvoxamine dose to 100 mg once and started escitalopram at 20 mg directly and duloxetine 20 mg two times and clonazepam 0.25 3 times. I am having a weird mood and not able to control my negative thoughts after that switch. Was it a correct method to stop 2 medicines abruptly and starting 2 other meds at high doses?

Hello Lybrate user,
happy to hear that you r taking medicine for the anxiety problem. According to the current symptoms psychiatrist started the new medicine. It will take some time to get relief from symptoms which you are currently going through. After 1 week if still you r having the same problem then need to consult with the Dr. & let him know about your current symptoms.
Thank you, have a great day and have a speedy recovery.

Dear lybrate-user,
At the age of 72 years, ED has multiple causes. If you discuss ED with your psychiatrist, he will assess and investigate for ED. Once the causes are found, they can be treated.

Urinary retention is one of the side effect of these medications. Consult with psychiatrist, so that dose can be adjusted or medications should be substituted accordingly.

Hello
You need to ascertain as to why the facial and jaw movements are happening. It can be caused by various reasons. Would be hard to say whether you can take bexol without knowing the reason. Pls consult your psychiatrist.

Wellbutrin can cause anxiety in some people. So you should check with your doctor who may decide to change this medication for another. Anxiety and depression oftentimes go together.
