The medications that have been prescribed by the doctor / psychiatrist for your son are fine. Some people react differently to different medications and you might want to continue giving the medications if there are no serious side effects. The good effects of the medications take about 20-30 days for them to show up and I believe that you will be able to get over the bad effects once you start focusing on the good effects the medication is having. I also think that you should start to not read ...more

I am 21 years old, was having anxiety issues. Went to a psychologist who referred me to a psychiatrist saying that I have ocd. Went to a renowned psychiatrist. Jst by seeing the psychologist report and asking some questions prescribed me with:- inspiral, flocin plus and pexup. I took these medicines for 2 days and started feeling very lethargic. I immediately stopped and google abt their side effects which were terrifying. And somehow I feel that they have affected me badly. I was not able to gv my exams well .went completely blank seeing the paper. It’s been 2 months now but I still feel that I cannot connect with people. Sometimes get completely lost. Please advise that does taking these medicines only for 2 days effect a person or am I jst over thinking. Waiting for your advice desperately.

Taking the psychiatric medications for two days will not have lasting effects on how your condition reacts. The fact that you were not made aware of the side effects or told that you might need to tolerate some adverse effects for a couple of days before things start looking up is the problem with the medications. I believe that your anxiety has many causes and that your problems are related to your not wanting to get treated for your problems with medications and your anxiety just rises if they...more

Dear Lybrate user
we would recommend you discuss the same with the psychiatrist. Psychiatrists can help in identifying whether to increase the dose or decrease it. Along with it, you have to make some lifestyle changes as well like adopting a physical exercise routine - gyming, yoga, cycling, etc. Consult a dietician for a healthy diet routine like avoiding too much sugar and carbs. Additionally to all these, you may try analyzing how this condition is affecting your life - relationship, wor...more

I was diagnosed with severe ADHD recently & prescribed with ritalin by the doctor. Usually, I count a number of letters a word when I read something & I stopped driving long before because I can't focus plus I can't speak spontaneously. I started by taking 4 tablets of inspiral ir 5 mg on the first day & something unexpected happened. After a couple of hours I rapidly felt like I was a superhuman. My concentration boosted abnormally & I begun to speak like a most experienced stage speaker. The whole world seemed positive & the depression zeroed. I felt this effect for about 4 hours & it rapidly ward off as it was immediate release dose. The next day with same optimism I took 2 tablets of inspiral sr 20 mg at once hoping that it will last for a day as it is a sustained release version. But the results were drastic. I'm depressed like hell. I felt like someone was squeezing my eyes out & my head felt so heavy. I had mild anxiety & absolutely out of the mood to do nothing but to lie down. I read a passage about 10 times to get the meaning because my concentration & motivation was down. It was so irritating, restless & jittery. Felt terrible being dizzy all day but was better than the situation without medications my doctor is off for a couple of months & what should I do now? What must be the reason for the change of effects between an immediate release & sustained release of the same medication? What would you suggest me to do? Inspiral is the perfect drug as I feel but the dosage & type of drug release brings in the problems. Have my brain built a tolerance to the drug all in one day? I want the good effects of the medication for at least 9 hours & how would you suggest me to alter the dosage? Please help me with this. Thanks in advance with hope!

I understand that you are suffering from adhd or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and that you will be able to feel better once the medication has been optimized. If your psychiatrist is out of town you may be able to consult online, however there are many other ways in which your problem of attention deficits as well as difficulties with depression can be solved. I strongly advice you to consult your previous doctor since the dosages may need to be up-titrated more slowly and in the mea...more

As a doctor, I must emphasize that crystal methamphetamine is an extremely hazardous drug with a high potential for addiction, serious health problems, and overdose. The risk of overdose depends on several factors such as weight, tolerance, purity and potency of the drug.
Even small amounts of crystal meth can have severe health consequences, including heart attack, stroke, and seizures. Furthermore, it's important to note that crystal meth is illegal, and its usage, possession or distributi...more

Addwize tablet will not help in either autism or in epilepsy. Its a medication prescribed for a condition known as attention deficiency hyperactive disorder (ADHD); autism needs specific behavior modification training & medications like phenytoin, valproate are given to control epilepsy. Good Luck
