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

single medicine is good. oleanz is a good medicine but has chances of producing weight gain, metabolic changes and sedation. If they are not there, it is wise to continue the same. If so, alternates are there. main thing is symptom control with least or no side effects. All the best.

Hi, 60+ year old woman is suffering from auditory hallucinations since march. She has been taking 'olimelt 10 mg' for 3 months now (along with zapiz 0.25 mg-1 month, ativan 1 mg-last 2 months) as per psychiatric doctor suggestion (psychosis). Liver test, blood test have been taken, its normal. Earlier she used to hear in the day time also, but nowadays only at night time she is hearing that too when she is about to sleep or early morning/if she wakes up at mid-night. Some of the other symptoms are, - suddenly crying at times (politely) - lack of concentration/focus - not speaking with anyone freely. Just 2/3 words, thats it - mild forgetfulness (small things like at times forget to switch off gas stove.) - mood swing like sometimes feel low/depressed -> can judge by looking at her face need experts advise on the below please. - all of the above are symptoms of psychosis? Any other medical test recommended for further analysis as per your experience? - can she take both psychiatric tablet and ayurveda/homeo medicines (saraswatharistam, manasamithira vadagam) together, bec. She wanted to reduce allopathy tablet intake for long run? - any other suggestion for faster recovery (like food habits, yoga, meditation, oil bath. Etc) any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Dear madam, it looks like the psychosis (hallucinations) are responding to aliment, but some of the symptoms you mentioned are suggestive of depressive disorder. I would suggest that you bring them to the notice o the treating psychiatrist. Psychosis can occur as part of a major depressive episode too and sometimes, it takes a few visits to get a clear picture. If she has no health issues like diabetes, hypertension, then no other tests would be required to evaluate the mental condition. I would...more

You can talk to your doctor and have clarity. On your part, you can make up your mind to lead a healthy lifestyle. A healthy diet (more of natural food along with fruits and vegetables everday) and exercising every day will make you fit and energetic and also improve your overall well-being. Learn Yoga and pranayam which can bring harmony, and rejuvenate your body and mind. You can also add Homeopathy later as it is safe and gentle. You can contact me for further details.

Hi lybrate-user! there is no such injection to erase the same. As days goes by the body gets cleansed naturally through natural ways within a week or so. You can take as much as fruits, vegetables and water to detoxify the body. There must be a valid reason for having injected topaz before. Now if you still have doubt regarding the same you can consult with the psychiatrist in person at your locality itself. With regards,
psy. Msv.

वानस्पतिक नाम सेन्टेला असिएटिका वाले गोटू कोला के फायदों का हम प्राचीन काल से ही उपयोग कर रहे हैं. भारत के आयुर्वेद चिकित्सा में प्राचीन काल से ही कई बूटियों का उपयोग चिकित्सकीय प्रयोजनों में किया जाता है. इसे आयुर्वेद में ब्राह्मी जैसा ही इसका भी गुण बताया गया है. मस्तिष्क पर इसका बहुत सकारात्मक प्रभाव देखा गया है. आइए गोटू कोला के फायदे और नुकसान को समझें.

It is not good continue medicine. It leads side effects. Better to come out from medicine. For depression psychological counselling will helps very much. I think you never attend for counselling. Strong counselling sessions are required. Use the medicine whenever you feel normal then leave it. It is best as soon as possible you should come out from the medicine. Years together you use your mind addicted to medicine. Suppose in future you cannot sleep properly without medicine. It is always bette...more
