Headaches and difficulty sleeping are normal when getting used to this treatment. To relieve these signs your doctor might want to lower the dose. Be certain to inform your doctor of these side effects so that he or she can decide what would be best for your case.

Hi I'm taking esomeprazole, lisinopril, lipitor, citalopram and ropinerole. I want to know if I can take anti sweat tablets

Female | 59

It is possible that sweating contributes to the discomfort, and any medications may interact with each other. The adverted drug might also negatively affect the efficiency of other medications that you are taking. It is vital to communicate with a doctor. They will give advice or suggest something else if necessary to manage your situation.

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.

I have problems with getting to sleep. But I do shisha and after I do shisha it helps me to sleep, but it's not good for my help what can I do to do away with intial insomnia

Male | 27

Utilizing shisha for sleep isn't recommended at all. In addition, the difficulty of getting sleep is called initial insomnia, and two possible reasons for that may be stress, bad sleep habits, or the use of drugs like shisha. A potentially successful method to deal with the troublesome situation is to establish a bedtime habit that makes you relaxed and quit stimulants, and some consultation with a doctor might be helpful on time.

Can I take methylphenidate and clonidine HCL .1mg together?

Male | 21

Methylphenidate can be taken with Clonidine, but make sure to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.  Methylphenidate is used for ADHD and Clonidine is sometimes used for high blood pressure as well as ADHD.  Combining them might help to control symptoms such as hyperactivity, impulsivity, or inattention.  If you have any worries or notice any new symptoms then always talk to your doctor about it.

Actually I am unable to sleep properly at night. Even I sleep a night properly after 4-5 sleepless nights.

Female | 23

It is critical to know the underpinning of your lack of sleep. Sleep loss can be caused by factors such as stress, anxiety, depression, and medical conditions. It is recommended you see a psychiatrist to identify and eliminate the sleeping problem's primary reason.

You might have acid reflux making your chest feel weird after eating. It could also be anxiety. Dry, scratchy eyes are another sign of being anxious. You should try eating more slowly and staying away from spicy foods as well as doing relaxation exercises or talking with someone you trust about what's on your mind Managing your anxiousness can also help with relieving dryness so if needed use some artificial tears.

I’ve been taking Cipralex and Fluanxole for a few years and about 5 months before I started having exaggerated startle response (myoclonus and blinking as a reaction to a sudden stimulus). Can it be caused by antidepressants? I’m very scared :(

Female | 27

Various factors can contribute to this reaction, such as stress or underlying medical conditions. If you're concerned, it's important to consult a doctor for accurate evaluation and guidance on your symptoms and medication. Never alter your medication regimen without medical advice.

I am 25 years old and 228, first time seeing this doctor. She prescribed me lisnopril 2.5mg only take if my blood pressure rises and my heart rate was fast. I get nervous easily and have anxiety

Female | 25

You are dealing with some anxiety and fast heart rate. It's not unusual for your heart to fasten up when you are nervous. Anxiety can sometimes lead to high blood pressure as well. The drug lisinopril 2.5mg can reduce high blood pressure but only when you need it, for example, if your blood pressure becomes too high. You should practice visualization techniques and keep calm to overcome your anxiety.

Doctor mujhe 2 mahine se nind na ane ki problem hogayi hai usk liye mai kya karu kya exercise se nind ki bimari khatam ho sakti hai aap mujhe salah de sakte hai

Female | 21

You me­ntioned trouble slee­ping for 2 months. That's a long time - insomnia can feel e­xhausting. Many factors like stress, anxiety, and poor habits contribute­. Simple exercise­s like deep bre­aths or light yoga before bed may improve­ sleep quality. Avoiding scree­ns close to bedtime and maintaining a routine­ sleep schedule­ are also beneficial. Howe­ver, if difficulties persist de­spite these e­fforts, seeking medical advice­ is recommended.

I am 20 year old female, I have depression for last 2 months , I have symptoms like panic attack at anytime, feel chest pain and feeling heartbeat , cold hands and feet , mood swings , headache , weakness, suicide thoughts , I masturbate everyday to reduce my depression, please help me to cure .

Female | 20

You should visit a psychiatrist or even a psychologist trained on mental health. While masturbation does serve to offer a short-term release, it is not necessarily an effective cure for depression.

Meri beti kuch sochti h to uske sir m drd hota h fever aa jata h kya ye DEEPRATION h

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 have been suffering from mental problems for 22 years. This is the result of excessive study and researching day and night on various topics. At first severe headache lasted for 2 years. My mind was weak. I could not stay in one place for more than 5 days. I used to run away from home aimlessly. I used to come back again. My sister wanted to get lost in the forest. I wanted to commit suicide. I tried thousands of times but failed. I drank poison once but I survived. The biggest problem was that I could not study. But I had an indomitable desire to study. I did not sleep all night. I used to get very angry. I haven't talked to Karo for 1 year. I haven't even left the house. Finally, I got some relief by dropping my studies. But sometimes this problem bothers me. Anyway, after seeing the doctor, I started tuition. After 7 years went by, but the problem did not go away, I was having a lot of problems in getting students. Not working. Not forced to work hard. Left tuition and started working in a company. It gave me some relief. Sleeping. Now my humble request is, what should I do to get fully healthy? So that I can teach tuition again and spend the rest of my life in peace. Please advise me.
