Hello Doctor, I am taking Escitalopram 5 mg for OCD as prescribed. Earlier, I took Flunil 40 mg for 1 year and the symptoms were resolved. After 1 year, Flunil caused itching, so Escitalopram was started 2 months ago on your recommendation. Since starting Escitalopram, I am now experiencing itching (khujli) on my skin again. Could you please advise if I should continue, adjust the dose, or switch medication? Thank you

Hello Doctor, I have been taking Paroxetine 12.5 mg for the past 1 week for anxiety, mild depression, and premature ejaculation. I take it at night after food as prescribed. Since starting the medication, I have been experiencing: • Nausea • Daytime drowsiness (even after sleeping 8-9 hours) • Occasional brain fog • Lack of appetite in the morning Additionally, I am taking Centrum Multivitamin in the morning or afternoon after food. Are these side effects normal during the initial weeks? Should I continue the medication or consider adjusting the dose? Is it safe to take the multivitamin along with Paroxetine? Please advise. Thank you.

My mother is starting to get into depression again. She has had depression 3–4 times before. Now it seems like she is becoming depressed again, even though she does not have any major tension or problems. She starts worrying about getting depressed, and that itself increases her anxiety and tension. She is not able to sleep for long — only about 3 hours of sleep. She does not talk much to anyone and does not laugh much. She just sits quietly and does not feel like doing anything. When she wakes up in the morning, she feels a tingling sensation in her head. She does not feel like cooking, eating much, or going outside. High doses of medication do not suit her because she is slightly overweight, and higher doses make her feel more restless and uncomfortable. What should we do? Please suggest some solutions.

When I stopped antidepressants, i lost sleep for 3 days and then when I woke up on the 4th day with little sleep,I developed neck stiffness/cervical spondylosis spasms, headaches, photophobia and sound sensitivity as well. Lost weight since I had gained lot of weight on meds. Also had digestive upset etc. went sleepless for a very long period. Memory affected, and focus affected. For neck stiffness, cervical spondylosis, was suggested physio, but I got okay with alternative medicine. Gained okay weight now, can sleep a bit with meds. Did the neck stiffness, cervical spondylosis, neck spasms affect blood supply to the brain? Is this the cause for insomnia, memory issues or anything to do with the brain or no? Please let me know. Can sleep with meds which had stopped working in between. Severe neck pain and stiffness was there but on examination by ortho, painless ROM.Severe insomnia that was never there earlier and even memory issues that weren't present earlier. Guide correctly please.
