Hello,
-boligra-m is prescribed for different conditions like allergy, wheeze, hay fever, etc
- etizolam is prescribed for anxiety, sedation, etc. It is meant for short term use only, usually up to a month
- escitalopram is an antidepressant /antianxiety medication. It needs to be taken the long term at least for 6 months up to a year or more.

Hello lybrate-user,
Both the salts have their pros and cons and it all depends on the patient's overall symptomatology when it comes of choosing one. None of them is outrightly superior over the other.
Please be warned that you must not take tale any of these without consulting a psychiatrist. Sometimes a wrong choice of drug or a wrong dose can lead to serious health problems and worsening of anxiety.

It is the side effect of Escitalopram and will reduce over a time period and need not stop the drug as it is good for your symptoms

Vitamin e and levocarnitine are antioxidant and involved in lipid metabolism respectively so it could lead to overall improvement in fatigue and decreased energy. Escitalopram is an anti depressant medication used to treat depression and some other disorders like obsessive compulsive disorder.

Dear Nandlal,
Both are good. Such combination studies are not done usually. So, you can use whichever combination works for you. But at the age of 64, it is better to use etizolam.

Dear Lybrate-User,
Please consult the psychiatrist who prescribed it to you. If it is with suicidal intent, she/he may add another drug/ect/therapy/admission to hospital. If it is impulsive, she/he may discuss this issue in therapy. Observe yourself, if any symptoms come up, go to the hospital for symptomatic treatment.

Rivotril and ativan belong to benzodiazepines and need to be stopped after some time. Szetalo is escitalopram and can be taken. All the best. Consult a psychiatrist to find the way to go about. All the best.

Get in touch with your psychiatrist. Also for generalised anxiety disorder I would suggest you begin by making some lifestyle changes too. Start relaxation ecercises and mindfulness training activities. Cognitive behavior therapy is also very efficient in treating gad. Get in touch with a psychologist near you or online.

Mr. lybrate-user, if your symptoms persist for more than a week or so then review with your treating doctor.

3 years is chronic depression, try to go to maintenance dose and combine with CBT, so medication can further be reduced. But dont stop them on your own. All the best
