Does Lexaton Causes Lack Of Sleep, Mood Swings And Depression?

hello, my exboyfriend is taking 1-2 pills of Lexotan 3mg every night, he also drinks beer every day and sometimes he smokes weed. He s been given the Lexotan due to a back problem and his lack of sleep. Ever since, his mood has changed, becoming extremely anxious, blaming me for almost everything and feeling danger in every corner we go (we live in a 3rd world country). Can that mix of beer, lexotan and weed be causing him erratic behavior, to the point where he is almost hallucinating danger everywhere? Thanks for your answer

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

What ever he do, in intoxicated condition, is due to effect of beer and weed. Some time due to alcohol and weed, patients become aggressive and violent. In that case, better to avoid the mixing of the two and tell him to take beer only. If he is not willing to follow instruction, that better to stay away from him under intoxicated condition and take help of psychiatrist for detoxification.

Thanks
