Hello,
Clofranil dose of 25 mg is very low dose. Depression worsens over time if not treated adequately so medicine don't worsen it, its the depression worsening which is not adequately treated. Medicine will either show no response or will improve your condition. You need to be in regular follow up of a psychiatrist. Dosage of antidepressant are increased gradually over time to avoid side effects. Serenace is not a antidepressant its a antipsychotic. Learn more about your illness and its tr...more

You seem to have developed specific phobia leading to chronic anxiety. You have developed a non helpful strategy to deal with this anxiety, that is taking a sleeping pill or serenace. This behaviour perpetuates your anxiety rather than help you overcome. You will greatly benefit from counselling and a review in your medications. Please consult for further help.

Seranace is basically for psychosis but dose for psychosis is always more than 5 mg in adults. The dose which is given to you is very low which is given for anxiety or sleep. However this dose doesn't help in depression. Still your psychiatrist is the best person to judge your condition based on your evaluation. You can discuss these concern with him. All the best.

Hello friend,
be aware that medicine is just one part of any psychological issues or treatment. Beyond medicine, there are many other actions you need to adopt especially psychotherapy or mindset change techniques, life style changes, relaxation, exercises, diet etc are required to make progress.
Are you following such things in your routine? If not, suggest you to approach a psychologist in parallel to identify the suitable solution.
Feel free to reach me for further assistance.

Your problem is created by your extreme fear to cause anxiety. You must by now know the origin of this fear. Until you deal with this fear you are going to suffer the problems you have listed quite regularly. You will have to work very hard with a counselor for a long time to recover. If you do not cooperate then it is futile and is a gross waste of time, money and opportunity. There is nothing wrong with use of medication since it is used as an addendum to the process of therapy. When the medic...more

My father was around 80 years old with history of diabetes, kidney disease, smoker, prostrate issues and his blood pressure was 90/44 when we took him to shifa international hospital, h-8, islamabad, pakistan for treatment. At that time his chest was not properly working as his oxygen saturation was 80%. Instead of taking option of dialysis due to kidney issues, doctors tried to do his echo due to reason best known to them. As he was not cardia patient. He could not lay on the bed therefore doctor gave him serenace injection @2.5 mg. It is pertinent to mention that he was not taking medicine for blood pressure and he was not a patient of blood pressure. As doctors injected serenace injection @2.5 mg, he had cardiac arrest and may be died at the spot around 3: 00 pm on 24th june 2019. They in order to save them, they gave him cpr treatment for around 10 minutes and then he again had breath. He was put on ventilator in order to grab more money and he did not respond for 10 hours till 12: 40 am on 25th june 2019 and then they declared him dead. I want to know about effects of serenace during this treatment. My questions are as followed: is serenace is recommended for patients who have kidney issues, diabetic, prostrate issues and smoker for long time? Was it permissible to inject serenace in order to do echo which was actually not required? Was it necessary to inject serenace @ 2.5 which was high dose? Can they inject serenace without consulting anesthesia doctor? Is assistant consultant can take this decision without consulting consultants dealing with heart and kidney issues? They have killed our patient, what are international standards to deal with such doctors as shifa international hospital claims that they are giving international level take care to their patients? Do you allow your doctors to do same procedure for patients at your hospital?
