Asked for Male, 44 years old from Satara

I am 44 years old and suffering from IBS. I was under depression and thus prescribed chlordiazepoxide and paroxetine for the same, which l was taking for an year. However my mother suffered a heart attack and she died in front of me. Thus l developed an intense fear of death. I consulted another psychiatrist who prescribed me paroxetine. However l suffered badly due to the withdrawal symptoms of chlordiazepoxide like trembling in fear, racing heart, dry mouth. After that l consulted another psychiatrist who has put me on dose of Cretrazalin 2-2-0 in morning, Sodium Valporate 100 mg and mretazipane 15 mg at night. Now the doctor says l will have to take the medicines for 2 years compulsory and since l had a recurrence it can be indefinitely also. Kindly advise whether this is the right line of treatment so that after two years noon tells me that you had wrong Medicines or I become dependent on them. I am badly worried. Please advise and help. Also let me know if hypnosis is the solution for the same.

It's tough to say whether it's due to drugs, but you better stop imipramine and see for two to four weeks, let me know if this helps.

Health Query

Hi, I am 50 years of age. I am Software Architect. 12 years back I was prescribed Imipramine HCL75 mg from AIIMS. Then, I was taking Dothiepin 75 mg for last 10 years which was affecting my alertness and cognitive abilities (Memory, Concentration, processing speed ) and thereby hampering my professional life. A Psychiatrist prescribed Escitalopram 10 mg tapering off Prothiedine. I feel moderate pain (as in inflammation) all over my head due to which I can do a little work and feeling loss of interest in work and anything and feel less sexual sensation which were intense prior to this medication.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. From that it is clear that she needs a detailed examination and may be needs the help of diabetologist as well as neurologist. So such a case can not be managed by online consultation. A detailed examination plus certain specific investigations are required. So please go to a good reputed institution where all the specialists are available. Thanks.
