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 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 Abhrajit,
Stalopam plus contains escitalopram and clonazepam. Stop stalopam plus and take stalopam 10 mg for 2-3 weeks. If okay, take stalopam 5 mg for another 2-3 weeks and stop. Remember stopping clonazepam will be more difficult than stopping escitalopram. All the best in your PG

Stalopam plus contains a combination of escitalopram and clonazepam. Escitalopram is used for both depression and anxiety. Clonazepam is is for anxiety and it gives you good sleep.
