About prescribed medication
Hello Sir,
After a consultation you have prescribed Prodep 20 capsule and olenzapine 2.5 mg for 1 month, I wanted to know if they have any sort of side effects...Or will they become an addiction, because it is my first time...and I also wanted to know if they are effective..
Kindly acknowledge
Thank you.

Hi,
Valid question about medication, but first priority is to get better. Talk to your consultant and discuss treatment plan
Yes these medications are effective, recovery depends on various things.
Every medication has its own side effects, if any side effects seen, immediately stop medication and consult your treating Psychiatrist.

No these aren't addictive. How long are you taking them? They are effective medicines. However, more details would be required. Consult a psychiatrist or follow up with your psychiatrist.
