There is no harm in giving nexito tab even after a stroke. Its probably given for some anxiety issues.
But if he does not need it anymore, it can be discontinued safely.

Need not worry for the side effects, get a scan done around 6-7wks, if gud you can continue and nt scan around 11-13 wks and double screening test.
And tiffa scan at 18-20 wks
these r routinely done for everyone but you should get it done fr sure.

Everything under sun has effects+side effects.
Do not worry about side effects as they are not likely to be significant.
Do consult psychaitrist for depression or anxiety instead of just stopping treatment.
Of course consult gynecologist for pregnancy.

Even nexito take under psychiatrist supervision. Your psychiatrist should be able to tell based on the chronology of symptoms the possible duration of treatment. Good luck.

Dear lybrate-user,
rexipra 10 mg is escitalopram 10 mg. It is available. The same medicine in different brand names are also available freely in the market. But it is better to consult your psychiatrist regularly and adjust the dose or to stop it. It may not be a tablet for your whole life.

Hello - nexito (escitalopram) is an effective medication for anxiety and you are on 10 mgs which is an effective dose. If you are feeling better continue on the same medication

Flunil (Fluoxetine) and Nexito (Escitalopram) both belong to class of SSRI (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor). They both are effective in a treatment of Depression, Anxiety Disordes and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and a lot of other Psychiatric Disordes.
