I am a 70 years old male. Other than hypertension, I have no other health problem. My recent blood report and ecg, ecko are also all right. I am taking bp medicines regularly. Recently, due to some anxiety-related and sleeplessness issues, my doctor has given me alprax 0.25, one at night and I am taking this medicine for the last one month. For the last 10 days, I am experiencing drowsiness/sleepiness in the daytime and sometimes uneasiness in the back side of the head. My question is, is it due to the side/withdrawal effect of this particular drug and is so, how can I get rid of this problem? Shall be grateful for your help and suggestion.
