I have been prescribed Flupenthixol (0.5mg), melitracin(10mg), paroxitine(20mg) and clonazepam (0.5mg) all together. Is it safe to take these together as I am worried about too many side effects at once.

Hi there,
It’s mandatory to go for the detailed history, including medical and the psychiatric history to come to a diagnosis and management of the disorder accordingly.
All the drugs act on different receptors. A drug can be used for various symptoms and diagnosis. But yes when given in combination, may cause some side effects but also can take over the side effects too.
Next Steps
It is advisable to discuss the details of the effects and side effects of the various drugs with the prescribing mental health professionals.
Health Tips
Even if the drugs are prescribed, they still can have some side effects. So do discuss the queries with the prescribing professionals.
