Depression is treatable with proper medicines

Detailed Answer:
Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries

I can understand your concern. You are taking Parocen CR or Paroxetine 25 mg, S-Methionine, Risperidone, Leynoxy and Krinergic.

Out of these medicines PAROXETINE is a SSRI drug which is an anti anxiety and antidepressant drug. The drug is considered as a safe drug at therapeutic doses. The drug causes sedation, increased appetite, weight gain, dizziness, diarrhoea, nausea etc as common side effects. These side effects are commonly seen at high doses especially at doses of more than 37.5 mg. Still at 25 mg dose it would cause sedation and sleepiness. In high doses the drug is known to cause reversible sexual dysfunction. The drug can cause delayed ejaculation, poor orgasm in males. These side effects usually reverse on stopping the drug.

Risperidone is an antipsychotic drug which is sometimes also used as mood stabiliser. The drug causes sedation, weight gain, dizziness etc as common side effects. In doses of more than 4 mg per day it may cause tremors, salivation, mask like face, akathisia, dystonia etc side effects. Over all the drug is safe to use if used as per proper prescription.

S-Methiwave, Leynoxy, Krinergic etc are nothing but health supplements. S-methiwave is known to be protective in depression. Over all these drugs are safe to use and are not associated with any serious side effects.

You are suffering from depression of one thoughts coming to mind, though you haven't mentioned the detailed history still it is pointing towards OC symptoms. In most individuals treatment is advised for up to 6 months to 2 years after remission of symptoms. That depends upon clinicians choice also. Once your symptoms decrease then you have to take the drugs as maintenance treatment for at least about 6 months.

Depression is treatable with medicines so no need to worry. Please continue to visit your psychiatrist regularly for better health. Don't left treatment against advise of your doctor.

Thanks, I hope this helps you. Please ask again for more doubts.

Take care

Brief Answer:
These symptoms are occurring due to paroxetine

Detailed Answer:
Hello again

As I have mentioned earlier also Paroxetine is associated with significant sedation which could be the cause of dullness in brain. These symptoms will reduce in about 2 weeks and no need to worry. Fluctuations in levels of drug are probably resulting in intermittent periods of activeness. Wait for some more days and you will feel better.

Thanks.
