Life without medicine is a dream for patients taking medicine for sleep. But it is possible to left the medicine with balanced diet. First ready to take plenty of fruits, coconut and exercise. Daily take two glass of normal water with lemon and no coffee or tea. The best method is to be physically active while leaving the medicine. Not a very difficult task but it will take 20 days to left the medicine completely. I guarantee nobody else other then me help you to leave in a very comfortable way....more

Dear lybrate-user,
the tablet you are using is used for bipolar disorder and must have been prescribed by a psychiatrist, it will be ok to meet your doctor again and confirm the requirement. Do not change or stop the medicine on your own.

Alcohol addiction is often seen in people with anxiety disorders. Simple deaddiction focus treatment won't help then, the underlying anxiety and irritability also needs to be treated. Maybe, for that reason, he is prescribed tab olanex f. Liofen xl is used here to decrease craving and felicita od is prescribed to replenish thiamine. Continue these medications for the time prescribed, definitely they will help.

The pulse rate of 95 or 105 is not alarmingly high. In situations of intense fear or anxiety normal persons can also develop such pulse rates and palpitations. What this means is you need to consult your psychiatrist for the fear and anxiety.
Do not worry too much about the pulse rates, its unlikely that this is because of a problem in the heart, more likely its a symptom related to schizophrenia.

As your mother is diabetic, we can not continue olanzapine for long term.
We need to change olanzapine to safer antipsychotic like aripiprazole or Amisulpride.
Thank you

ALLOPATHIC MEDICINES HAVE SEVERE SIDE-EFFECTS. I RECOMMEND A SWITCH TO NEAREST PATANJALI CHIKITSALAYA MEDICINES AS ADVISED PLUS PRANAYAM .

IF YOU HELP HER TO PRACTICE ALL THAT IS TAUGHT DAILY ON ASTHA CHANNEL 5.00 TO 7.30 AM. VERY VERY EFFECTIVE- ESP ANULOM-VILOM AND BRAMRI AND UDGIT. YOU WILL GET MIRACULOUS RESULTS FOR FREE AND WITHOUT ADVERSE EFFECTS OF ALLOPATHIC MEDICINES.

BUT, MEDICINES ARE DEFINITELY REQUIRED.

Hello,
Olanzipine is known to cause Parkinsons disease like symptoms. but the dose you are taking is minimal. the main thing is to reassess the need for antipsychotics and are they realyy required. Secondly you can try Pacitane
