All antidepressants cause hyoontremia, but may not be for all people. next plus contains escitalopram which is prone for hyponatrmia. It has to be managed by water restriction and if needed loop diuretics by doctor. If antidepressants can be changes there are low to medium rick ones for hyponatremia

Your medicines are not making you gain weight but your mood is. As one feels good and improved after medicine they tend to eat more but neglect physical activities. Increase your exercise time.

I hate to say this, but a proper solution always comes after a proper evaluation. In your case, we need to confirm that your diagnosis is indeed depression. Next we have to determine if the headache is a part of depression, some other medical illness or a side effect of escitalopram. Based on this analysis, further management can be suggested. It is possible to treat depression based on scientifically proven and established methods without the use of medicines as well. Take care!

I donã¢â€â™t know what are the circumstances under which you are taking medicines, I want to know the whole details about your disorder. But I must say donã¢â...more

These medications that you mention, i.e. Venlafaxine, lithium and escitalopram that you have been prescribed can be taken simultaneously without any serious side effects.

Kindly consult us for a second opinion.
Look forward to hearing from you. If you need help with booking an appointment online with me on this website either te...more

You have not given what you are being treated for.
From the medicines prescribed you could be suffering from depressive disorder or anxiety disorder or both together.
If that is so, your doctor may want you to continue taking it even beyond the time of recovery at least for 6 months. That could be a total of 9 months or an year of treatment.
However if you have a type of depression that recurs frequently and if the illness responds to the medication your doctor may want you continue...more
