Health Q&A
Big Problem

Doctor, I was taking Flunil 40 mg for ocd under a psychiatrist for about 1.2 years. Later, I was also taking Escitalopram 5 mg under a psychiatrist, and my symptoms reduced but were not completely controlled. So I started taking Fludac 60 mg on my own because Flunil 60 mg was not available. After switching from Escitalopram 5 mg to Fludac 60 mg, I am not experiencing any noticeable side effects and I am feeling better. Please guide me whether it is okay to continue this dose or if any adjustment is needed. I currently do not have money for a consultation, so I would be very grateful if you could please advise me out of humanity.

Big Problem

The doctor has written 1-0-1 for taking Fludac 60 mg for OCD, but I feel lazy during the daytime because of the medicine’s side effects. Will there be any problem if I take it after 9 PM at night?

Big Problem

Sir, in  ocd I get obscene image thoughts about my mother in my mind, and I was taking Fluni 60 mg for it. Now it is not available, so I am taking Fludac 60 mg. Is this the right medicine?

Concern Regarding Withdrawal and Duratio

Hello Doctor. I was prescribed Sertraline 50 mg and Clonazepam 0.25 mg for anxiety and panic symptoms. I am worried about dependency and withdrawal, especially with Clonazepam. If I take these medicines as prescribed, is withdrawal common? How are these medicines usually tapered safely, and what side effects should I realistically expect in the first few weeks?

Over thinking issue

I started having this problem in 2021 after the death of my grandfather. After a while, I started feeling like I was getting sick.Even while sitting in class, I used to think the whole day felt unwell and  dizzy, although till date I had never fallen due to dizziness.I got very nervous and would keep thinking  something  throughout the day.Then I thought I was very sick and wouldn't survive long.After that I went to the hospital and was diagnosed with hypothyroidism.This problem of mine got better for some time but the overthinking never reduced.I recently had gallbladder removal surgery.A few days later, a girl in my class died.She  died due to jaundice and hepatitis.After that I started overthinking more and thought I too had been diagnosed with fatty liver and that I might end up like her .I felt these things for at least 5 to 6 days.Since then, whatever  symptoms I have had, I feel that my health is not good Whatever happens, my anxiety increases.
