Asked for male, 36 years old from Chennai

I have been on clonazepam 0.5 for 90 days and as per psychiatrist, I was allowed to taper to 0.25 first. I have been on 0.25 for 24 days and then I was allowed to stop. Now it's been 4 days. How many more days would the withdrawal continue? How many days would the medicine be in my system before I can start observing any anxiety rebound?

Herhope is Transtuzumab, which is an anti Her 2 receptor antibody. If the tumor is Her 2 receptor positive, then it is recommended to give 3 weekly Transtuzumab for a year. It is a costly drug (Herceptin, the original brand by rosche costs 55k to 75k per vial of 440 mg) hence biosimilars are used which cost anywhere between 20K to 45K per vial. There are various schedules of chemotherapy which are used. The most common being 4 cycles of dose dense (2weekly) Adriamycin + cyclophosphamide followed...more

Hi lybrate-user, I would like to say that the symptoms of slowness of movement what you have mentioned in a patient who is on Rispeidone and aripiprazole is most probably EPS (extra pyramidal Side effects) unless proved otherwise. There may be underlying or Co morbid Parkinsons disease. But in this position its difficult to diagnose as the Pt is on antipsychotic. Gabapentin has no role in decreasing antipsychotic induced slowness in movements. But its often used as a treatment of Akathesia which...more
