Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
5 years is a sufficient period of treatment and now the medicines need to be stopped and tried. However your new prescription has many other newer drugs and it is no way to stop the drug. Use the newer prescription only if you want to re-start the treatment. Sizopin is a not good drug for anxiety, as it has some very fatal side-effects and is used only as a last resort in treatment resistant schizophrenia. It should better be avoided for anxiety disorders as there are plenty of other safer options available. Your first prescription is good and that needs to be withdrawn gradually.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
