The Dr. prescribed me paroxetine hcl 5 weeks ago- for depression- going thru some tough times right now-I took 10 mg for the first week- then 20 mg for 2 weeks- I felt absolutely horrible when taking the 20 mg- so she told me to drop back to 10 mg again- it has been 2 weeks now on the 10 mg- and I still dont' feel "normal"- how long does it take to really start working? ## It generally takes about 4 to 6 weeks for your body to adjust to any new medication, or dosage adjustment and for things to even out and the side effects to taper off. If it doesn't improve, however, you should talk to your doctor again, because this just may not be the right medication for you. Are there any other questions or comments?

hey, i'm trying to find a psychiatrist in washtenaw county that will write scrips for depression and chronic pain ## It is very unlikely that you will find one that prescribes both, because treating pain is not what they are trained to do. In most cases, they will only prescribe psychiatric medications and you must see your general practitioner or pain management specialist for pain medications, if appropriate. Do you have a regular physician?

Been on wellbutrin SR for 6 months. No other meds or health issues. At month 5, I woke up racing in middle of night. My BP spiked (don't normally have hypertension), body and facial numbness, hard headache and eye muscles twitching. Went to ER had CT scan, EKG, chest X-ray, labs, urinalysis and all normal. I've had 3 more episodes similar to above. Had MRI and 24 hr urinalysis and all normal. The only positive blood test was ANA. My GP has put me on a BP med and only other med is wellbutrin SR 150 1xday. GP wants to wean me off wellbutrin b/c he thinks it might be causing symptoms and possibly positive ANA result. At this time BP under control, only numbness at times in feet and hands, light headed when walking ( not all the time), and a constant inner tremor in chest, arms, and...

Can I Take Hydorocdone 7 5mg 500 With 1 Lorazerpam 1 Mg ## Yes, just don't drive anywhere. ## You should check with your doctor or pharmacist to be certain, but the only interaction we show listed is that of increased depression of the central nervous system, since they both can cause it and using them together can have additive effects. This means that you do have to be careful about driving, as was already stated, or operating any heavy machinery. You should also know to watch for any danger signs, such as a slow heart rate and shallow breathing. Are there any other comments or questions?

round white number wpi 3331 made by watson labs would like specifics on safe levels what to do if missed ## Buproprion is an antidepressant that is also used to help with smoking cessation. The maximum daily dose shouldn't exceed 450mgs, taken as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. If you miss a tablet, you should take it as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for the next dose, in this case, skip the missed dose and take the new one, then continue with your regular dosing schedule. Are there any questions or comments? ## Can anyone tell me the difference between Buprop 24 XL and Bupropion HCL XL? ## Will it make me feel all fuzzy and warm? perferably in my crotch area? ;D

Depression is in my family; and I have inherited it. In 1983, I had some problem of irregular heart beat and along with other medicines, included Fludec. Fludec continued in my life upto 2007 when the Psychiatric introduced Topdep-S. The serving dispensary of the Govt. which did not stock Topdep introduced me to Nixito 10 being an equivalent.. This has gone on since 2008. I have been OK all this time with these drugs. For a month or so I was advised to stop this. I have now started having the same over anxiety, irritability and short temper. I am 70 yrs old with CAD. What do I start with???

I am having headaches and sleeplessness. My doctor advised me to take Alprax 10 since 2002. I am taking weekly twice or three times, if I stop I get severe headaches at temple muscles and no sleep. Is this symptoms of depression and anxiety? Now I have severe muscle twitches / contractions, involuntary movements. Is this from Alprax 10?

What websites are you using. The website I was told by a friend has discontinued selling it. Thanks ## I take Paroxetine 20mg for anxiety treatment once a day. I wonder if Fruta Planta has some secu ndary effect about this. Thanks! ## Fruta Planta has actually been pulled from the shelves in most countries, due to the fact that it was found to contain the undeclared drug ingredient Sibutramine. Sibutramine was pulled from the market in many countries, due to the extreme risk it caused of adverse cardiac events. So, Houston, yes since the Sibutramine is a stimulant used for appetite suppression, it can definitely have an effect on anxiety. Is there anything else I can help with?

Can you please let me know the effects of Mirtazipan which i have been prescribed for anxiety. I know of other friends who have taken it and they feel worse. I know of one person who said it helped. Does it take two weeks to get fully into the system and another two weeks to get out? I have also been told that it is prescribed for helping to get back into a good sleep pattern and should only be taken intermittently for about 3 days at a time and then a rest. Could you please advise. Many thanks. ## Mirtazapine is a tetracyclic antidepressant, to have its best effect in the body, it should be taken daily, just as prescribed by your doctor. It can take daily dosages for as long as 4 to 6 weeks, for it to reach its full effectiveness in your body and it can take just as long to cycle out, ...

white round tablet with mx on top of THE 72 ## This tablet contains 100mgs of Trazodone, the active ingredient in Desyrel, which is an SARI class antidepressant. Side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and weight changes. Learn more: Is there anything else I can help with?

My Psychiatrist has me on 200 mg. of zoloft and I'm, being tapered (my choice) off of klonipin--currently 1mg. I'm terrified of getting serotonin syndrome! I was also on trazodone to help me sleep until I read about ser. syndrome. So now, I just deal with the insomnia. Anyone else have this terror? ## It is a very rare occurrence, so not something that you should genuinely be terrified about. The Zoloft contains the active ingredient Sertraline, which is an SSRI antidepressant and there is as much a chance of it causing serotonin syndrome as there was with the Trazodone. Have you discussed these concerns with your doctor?

l thought the doctor was giving me pencillin for bronchittis ## My doctor didnt discuss this med with me and i wanted to know if it was a antidepressant. ## I am sorry, but in order for me to provide you with any information, I am going to have you to ask you to be a little more specific. Aurobindo is that name of a pharmaceutical manufacturer, not the name of a medication, so I don't know what medication you are asking about. Can you please post back with more information?

my daughter suffers from depression and i have found this loose out of a bottle with no bottle around. she is prescribed several different medications and i believe it is paxil but want to make sure ## I believe you're probably correct, but the marking is ZC 16, though it can be hard to read. It contains 20mgs of Paroextine, the active ingredient in Paxil, which is an SSRI antidepressant. Does it match the other tablets in her prescription?
