All brands from quality pharma companies are good and about the same price. But there are some not so standard pharma s and some duplicate medications which carries the name, but might be a duplicate. All the best

Good evening
cipralex is escitalopram which is a medicine used to treat anxiety and depression. Usually it doesn't have much side effects and it can be prescribed for chronic periods. It's better to get a medical assessment from a qualified medical doctor or a psychiatrist to review the indication and to examine the patient before stopping this medicine

Autism, cerebral palsy, adhd come under one spectrum. They are behavioral disorders. They are not organic disorders (meaning. They cannot be picked up on sonography or any other radiological investigation whatsoever). Behavioral disorders are detected a few months after birth depending upon the developmental milestones. Cipralex comes in category c of fda drugs. Meaning there are not enough studies to come to conclusion. But it is one of the safer drugs in pregnancy.

Hello, Lybrate-user, It is not recommended to change the dosage of your medication without consulting your doctor first. If you have just began taking the medication, please allow it to take effect, which can take some time depending on the strength of the medicine itself. If you still feel you require a higher dosage, consult with your doctor again and share your concerns with them.

Hi lybrate-user,
Clonorest (clonazepam, isa benzodiazepine) which if used on a regular basis can cause dependence. If it is indicated in your condition for example to improve sleep or reduce anxiety, I suggest that you only use it as and when required. Citalopram (c-pram) is an antidepressant and is the most important medicine for you totake and it has to be taken everyday. So to answer your question- if your depression is mild and not troubled with insomnia or anxiety symptoms then taking c...more

My psychiatrist doctor recommended me cipralex 10 mg (half tablets on first 4 days, then one full tablet for 6 days and then 20 mg tablet for next 20 days.) for first 4 days with half tablets everything was good, and I started feeling good also, when I took 1 mg tablet for next 3 days it was good, but later on it started decreasing my libido in masturbation. I am not able to masturbate for 3 days (whenever I start masturbation my sperm doesn't come out and i'm unable to reach the orgasm/climax/ejaculation) .and I feel very little sexual attraction. I'm afraid what will happen when I will start 20 mg for whole 20 days from now onwards. Is it normal or should I again consult my psychiatrist doctor. I'm mean do doctors recommend 20 mg cipralex to anyone. My weight is between 78-81. Height 5" 11. Age 23.

Cipralex which contains escitalopram is known to cause decreased libido and delayed ejaculation and at times anorgasmia (absence of orgasm). Yes, psychiatrists do prescribe escitalopram up to 20 mg per day but the benefits and tolerability varies from person to person. In your case you are finding it difficult to tolerate due to side effects, so the best way is to consult a psychiatrist and get it changed to some other medication which doesn't belong to this group i.e ssris (selective serotonin ...more
