Yes, you can take. There is less likelihood of causing diarrhoea and would be effective for you, especially when venlafaxine worked well for you. The combination won't be having any adverse effect on your blood sugar level.

You are into an anger-related depression and need the assistance of a counselor too. This I am sure you have not tried and that is why there is so much trouble coming out of the depression. So find a good counselor and work with that person along with the medication you are taking. A lot of your symptoms are either induced by the depression or is a part of the disorder. So they should all stand to benefit if you combined the two therapies. In the meantime please do the following sincerely becaus...more

Asked for male, 35 years old from Ernakulam

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.

Asked for male, 35 years old from Ernakulam

I have been suffering from generalized anxiety disorder from the age of 14 since 2002. My father suffered a heart attack and was admitted to icu. I was in a movie theatre watching a movie and was brought to hospital to see him. That incident triggered my anxiety disorder. The burning sensation / butterflies in the stomach will not go away. That makes my mood worse and impair cognitive functions. Studies and exams became nightmare for me due to this problem. I was treated by a clinical psychologist initially. He trained me progressive muscle relaxation and guided imagery. I did that with some success but my problem worsened and another clinical psychologist trained me deep relaxation with jpmr and diaphragmatic breathing. But my problem never went away and I continued with my studies somehow. Completed 12th and joined b.tech. But I could not pass b.tech papers. The doctor I was seeing was against psychiatric medications and my parents were also not interested in that. In 2011 due to some personal issues my problem worsened and I decided to see a psychiatrist. He prescribed me escitalopram and when it started working I saw a huge improvement. I cleared all my back papers. Then I joined a job and I did pg in mechanical engineering. When I tried to stop medication, the problems came back with a vengeance also the same medicine will not work. Doctors tried different medicines to find the one that works. Also psychiatrists did not advise any psychological therapy. escitalopram worked again and I felt better again. I got married and was leading a good family life. But the medicine stops working sometimes and I am helpless when they do and the symptoms return. Psychiatrists have tried ssri like escitalopram, sertraline, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, snris like venlafaxine, desvenlafaxine, duloxetine, then other meds like benzodiazepines, buspirone, propranolol, quetiapine, amisurplide etc. I tried even ketamine infusion and that made me feel worse. The only medicines that worked for me are escitalopram and duloxetine. But in those duloxetine stops working very soon and escitalopram stops working in 2-3 years. Now I am in a situation where escitalopram has stopped working. Is there any way to make it work again or any better medicines out there? I have heard stories of people who are on antidepressants on for a very long time. But I am not able to go past 3 year with relapse. I need serious help to live without this problem affecting my life. What should I do to go on antidepressants for a long time with out relapse? I have not tried therapies like cbt, mindfulness, act etc will I be able to manage my problem with psychological interventions like those? All my bad feelings come from my gut area. Is there any underlying biological reason for my disorder? I am willing to spend all my money to recover from this problem. I am inviting suggestions from all the experts in Lybrate who could help me recover from this debilitating problem.

Different people respond differently to different drug combinations. Working with you psychiatrist will help in finding the right balance between control of the symptoms and tolerable side effects if any. Wishing you good luck in finding the ideal combination at the earliest. Good luck.

Hi, by the list of medications I can understand that you have tried a lot of medicines. Still your problem is not resolved. Since you are near to bangalore the best way I could suggest is visit nimhans bangalore and consult a psychiatrist and a therapist for your current problem you might need more of therapy and a different kind of antipsychotic which works for dysthymia. The medicines which you have mentioned are antidepressants and does not necessarily work in dysthymia.

Duloxetine is an antidepressant and is given for pain also .It has been prescribed for periods like 6 weeks.
If there is a problem in l4. l5 only this medication alone will not help.
