Hello!

Thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concer, I would explain that these drugs may be associated wit hsimilar side effects, like headache, even tinitus (especially alprax 10-20%), blurred vision (5-10%), cognitive disorders (20-30%), paresthesia, numbness, etc.

But even your primary disorder, treated wit hsuch medications could be responsible.

So, my advice is to discuss with your prescribing doctor about these possible side effects, and make the appropriate decision on the ongoing therapeutical strategy.

Hope to have been helpful to you! Greetings! Dr. Iliri
