Does Sertraline contain blood thinners for my first tattoo?
I take Sertraline for anxiety and depression and I am going to have my first tattoo done and don't no if the Sertraline has blood thinners in it. Many Thanks.
Psychiatrist
Answered on 16th Aug '24
Sertraline is a medicine often used for anxiety and depression. Tattooing does not contain blood thinners but may result in minor bleeding. Thus it’s important to inform the tattoo artist about your intake of Sertraline so that they can take necessary precautions. To prevent any complications ensure you adhere to their aftercare advice.

Hi doc. How dangerous is mixing overdose valium 300mg zolpidem 300 dormicum 300 klonpin 60mg with alcohol
Male | 32
A combination of Valium, Zolpidem, Dormicum, Klonopin, and alcohol with an overdose is highly risky. It causes severe bodily damage due to the high doses. Symptoms like lightheadedness, bewilderment, and even coma, may appear as the respiratory rate starts to decrease. This synthesis can be the most harmful since it targets the brain and the heart breathing. If you or another person has overdosed, immediately find someone to lend a hand.

my partner has just taken 15mg zopiclone and 400 mg seroquel. Is there cause for concern?
Male | 39
Yes, that should be worry of yours if your partner has taken 15 mg zopiclone and 400 mg seroquel, if taken together. Both of them are soporific agents and can cause overcrowding, dizziness and confusion. It is critical to consult with a psychiatrist or a sleep specialist as you seek immediate medical treatment.

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'm 26 I have autism ocd Suspected ADHD and suspected fibromyalgia I'm taking 15mg of escitalopram It's making me fall asleep from 6 am to 8 am What should I do? I take it in the evening
Male | 26
Escitalopram might be making you feel too drowsy in the morning like it's the reason you are going to sleep. This case is more or less the same with some people. An example of one thing you might do is to consume it earlier in the evening, for instance, right before you eat. This way, you may later be tired but not in the morning. If the problem continues, bring it up with your doctor.

Taking 5 escitalopram and 2 mirtazapine pills together can put your sister in great danger. This mix of medicines may make her very sleepy, confused, and give her a fast heartbeat or even seizures. These drugs can interact badly and harm her body. It is crucial to take her to the hospital right away so doctors can help her feel better and stop serious problems from happening.

I am 12 years old and i took valerian to sleep and ive been feeling anxious drowsy and been having insomnia ive lost my appetite too please tell me a way how to fix it at home
Male | 12
The use of valerian can lead to side effects such as anxiety, drowsiness, and insomnia. Also, a loss of appetite is a usual issue. To make it easier, drink a lot of water, eat light meals, and engage in calm activities like walking. Being careful not to take any more valerian is important. You will feel better shortly if you rest and take care of yourself.

I had drug induced psychosis how can I know if it’s only drug induced psychosis or if it’s like schizophrenia or something
Male | 22
A psychiatrist’s consult needs to make a determination whether your psychosis is substance abused induced or if it may signify a more serious mental illness, like schizophrenia. A psychiatrist can conduct a comprehensive assessment and steer you in the right direction for treatment. I suggest that you see a psychiatrist who specializes in psychotic disorders.

The doctor prescribed tranquillizer medicine to my sister, so I want to know what are its uses, what will be its side effects, and whether it can also cause memory loss. Please tell me
Female | 21
Tranquilizers are medicines used to relax the body and mind and calm them down. These are the best choices for the treatment of anxiety and insomnia and sometimes muscle relaxation. Some of the side effects are drowsiness, dizziness, and confusion. Memory loss is one of the side effects that could occur, particularly when using the drugs for a long period with high doses. Besides these, it is important to be careful with the doctor if you feel any adverse symptoms.

I was taken daxid 50 mg tablet .I am feared that tablet side effects.if any problem are effected male sexual hormone level
Male | 19
It is completely understandable to worry about the side effects of a medicine. Male hormone levels can be affected by Daxid 50 mg occasionally. This might lead to symptoms such as low sex drive or difficulty in achieving an erection. The reason for this is that the drug has an impact on serotonin levels in the brain. If you are going through these things, it would be best to talk to your doctor about them.

You seem to be having symptoms of anxiety. The feeling of fear, headaches, and the tendency to worry about your health are some of the symptoms of anxiety. Anxious people checking blood pressure regularly is a typical behavior. The anxiety could be the reason for the high blood pressure. For relaxation techniques, exercise, and therapy can be useful.

And secondly, the tension of my family is always in my mind, these things are always going around in my mind because my family environment is very disturbed and nothing is going right here.And every time I'm stressed I always have depression
Male | 25
This could be due to stress, not enough sleep, bad eating habits, or maybe even depression. The best thing to do is take care of yourself by getting enough rest each night; exercising regularly will also help keep your energy levels up throughout the day. Healthy food can improve mood swings associated with this condition. You’re still young so don’t worry too much.

I recently found out I am pregnant. I am currently on antidepressants (50mg quetiapine, 150m Lamotrigine and 20mg escitalopram) should I be worried about the baby's development. I also had a miscarriage before, what can I do to keep baby healthy, are there recommendations for supplements
Female | 33
Pregnant women should have normal worries when carrying a baby after a miscarriage. The medications you've been prescribed can influence the development of your baby but quitting them too quickly can also be dangerous. This is the reason why it is vital to discuss this with your doctor. To promote your child's health, eat healthy foods and take prenatal vitamins, especially folic acid.

High blood pressure can have many causes, including stress. Worrying too much and overthinking may also be signs of anxiety. It's important to follow your doctor's instructions when taking medication. To manage stress and anxiety, try relaxation methods like deep breathing, exercise, or talking to someone you trust.

Can i take warm milk at night as I am taking antidepredsants
Female | 43
Drinking warm milk before sleeping is usually okay for people taking antidepressant medicines. Milk has tryptophan, a substance that helps make serotonin. Serotonin is a chemical that aids sleep. However, some individuals may get stomach problems or gas from warm milk. If you don't experience these issues, a glass of warm milk at night is generally fine. Ensure it doesn't interact badly with your medications.
