I am a 43 years old male. I was suffering from depression & had disturbed sleep and used to wake early morning with out able to sleep then. Due to which I used to feel restless during the day & not able to concentrate on my work. Then I consulted a psychiatrist & he prescribed me stilnot, etirest, rexipra 10, betacap. After taking medication for 2 months he prescribed etirest, rexipra 20 & betacap. By the time I was also taking homeopathic medicine as I did not want to continue allopathic medicine. Now it has been around 9 months after medication when I took rexipra 20, I used to feel heaviness in my head & pain in my left chest & confused during the day. So some times when I skipped rexipra 20, I used to feel better. So, I consulted my psychiatrist & he reduced my rexipra to rexipra 15. But again after taking rexipra 15, I am feeling pain in my head when I wake up in the morning & feel heaviness in my left chest. I.e. I feel better if I do not take rexipra. As I am already taking homeopathic treatment. I consulted my homeopathic doctor & according to him I am responding to his medicine & he said that I can stop rexipra 15. So, please suggest me that, can I stop rexipra 15.

Dear lybrate-user, It is nice that you consulted both the doctors. Rexipra will be reduced and stopped in few weeks time, if you consult your psychiatrist again.
