Hexicof ls has antihistaminics and levosalbutamol and mucolytics. Since you r already on and inhalers montek fx which has antihistaminics already and bronchodilators I will not advice using a substitute. Its better to find plain mucolytics of some other brand.

I am suffering from schizophrenia since last 7 years, I have went for many doctors since last 5 years only psychiatrists they delivered me different sets of medicines but the medicine. I have been relieved is risperidone+trihexyphenidyl hcl tablets both came under the name risdone plus (2 mg) and amisulpride 100 mg. But due to my bad habits of discontinuation of taking medicines on later the auditory hallucination keep on arising at later time, (1) can you tell me how much time will it take to completely relieved from this schizophrenia? And the sedation effect let me have a heaviness and concussions in the morning which is why my brain functioning gets slowed down to almost zero. (2) is there any other medicines to cure schizophrenia without sedation effects as I have to work also from time to time and been taking medicines for only once a day.

More than 1 year of schizophrenic illness is called chronic schizophrenia and most likely requires life long medications. Kindly get this into your mind. It is like diabetes or hypertension, a derangement in bodily metabolism, so medications needs to be taken without break for reaching near normalcy in functioning. Taking medicines regularly will lead to poor symptom (mainly hallucinations and delusions) control, long term negative and cognitive symptoms and also residual symptoms which cannot b...more

Hi lybrate-user
from the limited information provided by you, I could understand that you are suffering from anxiety, depression and ocd. Serta is an appropriate drug to improve all of it and usually it is augmented by an antipsychotic drug (risperidone) after it has been tried up to its full dose (~200 mg per day). It's in your best interest if you consult a psychiatrist in-person and get your treatment optimised.
I wish you get better soon!

Schizophrenia is a very complex and difficult disease to treat, even with medication. All psychotropic medicines have side-effects: that is inescapable. But I suspect that you are depending entirely on medication when in reality you need to combine it with counseling or therapy to improve cognitive skills. In therapy you will learn a lot of coping mechanisms and techniques to remain functional and lead a close-to-normal life. You will also learn about emotions and how they can impact your condit...more

My daughter is 21 years old diagnosed with severe stress and was prescribed to take 0.5 mg risdone twice daily but her condition was not improve much and felt sleepiness throughout the day and unable to concentrate in studies so doctor asked to take rexipra 5 mg along with risdone and she started feeling much better and able to focus but problem of drowsiness remained so doctor her reduced her dose of risdone to 0.5 mg once daily and asked to take wakelert 150 mg if too much sleepiness is there. But after new dose she started feeling dull and there was feeling of some unexplained uneasiness in mind and was not able to focus though waklert was keeping her awake so doctor asked to stop risdone and observe but her mental health deteriorated with problem of breathlessness so doctor again asked to start risdone 0.5 mg once a day but she found that risdone 0.5 mg twice a day along with rexipra 5 mg is very helpful for her but there is problem of too much drowsiness so she needs to take waklert regularly. What should she do now? Should she continue risdone 0.5 mg twice daily with rexipra 5 mg and waklert 150?

Dear sir please continue the medication as prescribed and it is advisable not to adjust the dose of wakalert by herself but speak to her psychiatrist. Also, both risdon and rexipra can be taken once a day, so discuss with your psychiatrist if she can take 1 mg risdon and 10 mg rexipra as a single dose in evening instead of twice a day and see if drowsiness reduces.

Hello. Consult a psychiatrist in person. Your mother will require a mental health assessment including investigations (if required) and treatment review. If she is not showing any improvement then either drug dose needs to be optimized or a new drug will be introduced. Thanks.
