Anxiety, panic attacks and sleeplessness
Is it safe to take zapiz 0.5mg for anxiety and sleep disorder?
My doctor advised me zapiz 0.5mg once a day for anxiety and intermitent sleep. I am taking this medicine since the last 3 days. He also advised to reduce the dosage to half once I start getting sleep.
I have had some relief from anxiety with its use and would like to know after how long I can discontinue its use.
Also are there any side effects of taking this medicine and discontinuing its use after a while.
Thank you.

Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
Yes what your doctor has prescribed is good.
But i wouldn't suggest you to take it for longer than needed.
For a few days to weeks it's fine.
Not more than that.
Consult your doctor again if you have any questions.
Best regards.
