Hi sir, my doctor prescribed me an anti depressant (nexito 5 mg) for 15 days, I only used it once and it made me feel so good through out the day. So my question is if I use it will my brain get addicted to it and may increase the depression symptoms after the completion of medication period (of 15 days).

It's not possible that you felt good with Nexito alone. Often the initial relief is due to a placebo effect. This effect will go away soon. You need to take this medicine for a long time to fully recover. It has zero addiction potential. Totally safe.

5 Mgs is too small a dose to treat Depression such a small dose allys Anxiety and that too not with 1 dose, may be good placebo effect, continue taking the medication and be under medical supervision and Follow up. Nexito is not addictive.
