Regarding hypnic jerks and dreams

2025-10-16 03:58:21
Dear sir/ma'am, I was using Rexipra Forte 20 (Escitalopram Oxalate 20mg + clonazapem 0.5 mg) from last 7 months. Recently, from last 5 days,  I was experiencing hypnic jerks during sleep and also getting dreams during sleep but I was feeling like I was in deep sleep abut  my husband has noticed my hypnic  jerks during sleep. Kindly suggest why this happens and is there anything to worry about?
