Yawning ssri

2022-01-02 20:01:32
I have recently consulted a psychiatrist for OCD and anxiety. He prescribed fluvoxamine 100 mg OD night and Tofisopam 100 mg OD morning. I am taking this medicine since 7 days. But today I am feeling excessive yawning almost 20 to 30 times in 1/2 hour. I have never experienced yawning like this...I have never experienced yawning like this ever before starting medicine.
