The tetanus toxoid vaccine produces immunity by blocking the bacterial infection. If you see redness, warmth, or swelling, or if you have fever or muscle stiffness, contact the doctor as fast as you can. Monitor the different symptoms that may arise and just come back to us if there is any need

I’ve been put on 4mg diazepam. Is that okay with 10mg ramipril. I have panic disorder and worry!
Female | 42
You're taking 4mg of diazepam, and 10mg of ramipril for panic disorder. These medicines interact. Diazepam boosts ramipril's effect, causing low blood pressure, and dizziness. They make you drowsier, dizzier, lightheaded. If experiencing these symptoms, consult your healthcare provider about adjusting medications.

It seems that you may be going through a type of depersonalization. That means that a person can observe life like an outside spectator from the viewpoint of seeing himself/herself acting. It can be associated with anxiety, stress, and other mental health issues as well. It is highly advised to communicate with someone you trust or a counselor about how you feel. They will be able to provide you with coping mechanisms. Besides, resting well, eating properly, and take a couple of breaths or practising mindfulness can also be beneficial to keep your mind at peace.

I am 19 years old, I have suicidal thoughts, difficulty in breathing or anxiety.
Female | 19
Self-harm thoughts, breathing difficulties, or very rapid heartbeat rate are severe. These can be indicators of a mental health condition like depression or anxiety. Talk to someone you trust about how you're feeling. Some therapists and psychiatrist are willing to listen to you and help you to feel better.

Female | 31
Etizolam and Escitalopram Oxalate are both okay for the treatment of anxiety and depression. By your past history of taking Etizolaam, your doctor might have prescribed Etizola Plus 10 to be of help with anxiety. To adhere to your doctor's orders is very important. Remember, it's a good idea to tell your psychiatrist about any problems or side effects you may have.

I get fainting and I have so many negative thoughts and it's change my behaviour and I suffer lot
Female | 18
Your drooping spirits and the negatives in your thinking have the consequence of your behavior. Various causes of these signs are found hence people having been under a lot of stress or anxiety experience the same feeling. When you go through the emotions focus on the end of this exercise: slow breathing and calming of the soul. Besides, communicating with your close friends or even family members can be helpful. You can also recognize that it's important to ask for help when needed.

Hi, I am 35 F being treated for treatment resistant depression. I am on this regimen for 7 days now and have developed a benign rash allover my body. I am taking duloxtene, lustral, vilazodone, lamictal, and lurasidone. Please verify of these drugs don't have any serious interactions and what to do with my rash.
Female | 34
The drugs that you have mentioned are solely for the treatment of depression, and the great news is that they do not create any major interactions. The rash might be a result of the use of one of the medications, possibly Lamictal. Rashes can often occur while one takes this drug. I suggest you reach out to your doctor, inform them about the new symptom, and find out the best way to address it.

Female | 31
Headaches & fever in your daughter could be due to physical illness, tension, stress, or anxiety. Depression also causes headaches and fever, but it's usually accompanied by other symptoms, such as low mood, disrupted sleep, loss of interest, and other physical and mental signs. Consult your nearest doctor for evaluation.

I do everything but mentally disturbed everytime I get stressed and it's not easy for me to quit the masterbation and porn addiction I am always confused with my inner stuckness like that don't do anything I want concentrate other work but the fear of interaction anxiety I feel alone everytime.
Male | 25
There is a high likelihood of such feelings when stress is the underlying cause and leads to developing habits that seem very tough to break, for instance, the usage of pornography or masturbation. This is indeed a good initial step. To aid you in your stress reduction, you might consider employing some mindfulness techniques, for instance, some easy ones like deep breathing or meditation. Other things like regular physical exercise and the company of social people can be helpful as well. If continued feelings of confusion and anxiety exist, I am advising to consult a healthcare specialist for a collection of personalized services and support.

Do I have bpd and or depression? I have been having constant thoughts of self harm and suicide these past few years, I’ve attempted multiple times however I’ve never been to hospital for any of them, nobody even knows about them, my parents can’t get me tested due to financial issues, I don’t want to eat I have a terrible sleeping schedule, crying is a daily occurance, and I have episodes where I want to block everyone and just be alone but then I also don’t want to be alone and I get very obsessive when it’s someone I love that has broken up with me like the other week I lost it I was crying for 4 hours and I was begging for her to come back she didn’t however and now I feel horrible and I just want an answer
Female | 14
BPD is known for its symptoms such as self-injury, unstable emotions, fear of abandonment, and impulsivity. For example, you may feel sad, lose interest in things that previously gave you pleasure, and experience changes in your eating and sleeping habits. Genetic, biological, and environmental factors may be the culprits of both diseases. You should seek the assistance of a psychiatrist or a counselor.

Male | 59
When we were kids, our brains were still growing and trying to make sense of the world around us. Being curious is fine- it’s part of growing up to think about different things or have new feelings. Reflecting on life might raise some questions for us. If these memories bother you, talking with a psychiatrist can help.

My brother started smoking heroine and it has been over 6 months now. He wants to quit and made a few attempts but the withdrawals and lack of will power is not allowing him. He started taking buprex as medication to combat the withdrawals. What would be best course of action for him?
Male | 21
Quitting heroin can be extremely challenging, especially without proper support and guidance. Buprex can help manage withdrawal symptoms, but he needs to undergo a structured detox program and receive counseling to address the underlying issues contributing to his addiction. Your brother should consult a psychiatrist or a qualified addiction specialist for personalized treatment and support.

I am 23 year old currently I'm understanding sleep disorders like talking while and shouting and yelling out of fear while sleeping, I don't know what is reason I don't remember what happened me waking up,
Female | 23
It seems that you might have parasomnia a type of sleep disorder. It can cause sleep talking or shouting without your awareness. This might be related to stress, anxiety, or even irregular sleep patterns. Try to manage stress levels, keep a consistent sleep schedule, and develop a relaxing bedtime routine to lessen these incidents. If this does not help, seek advice from a psychiatrist.

I know you feel really low at the moment. Many people experience life seeming meaningless sometimes. But there is hope – things can improve.

Female | 40
Your irregular eating habits can negatively impact your well-being. Morning hunger leads to sluggishness and lack of focus. Meager afternoon and evening meals deprive your body of vital nutrients. Aim for balanced meals containing fruits, veggies, proteins, and carbs throughout the day.
