Most of the medications used by Psychiatrists have many side effects . Please read up about this medication and question yur doctor . The responsibility is not only for the dr but the patient is equally responsible for taking care of his health. Get an EKG AND CHEST XRAY as wellas a comprehensive metabolic workup to make sure he does not have any other issue. tiredness could be due to several reasons and that is the reason Iam asking to get a complete blood work done . Meanwhile try changing hislifestyle habits also . i need more specific details like his job , his dietary habits and thestress level at his work and home ,your financial situation any other comorbidity he is having .All needs to be known for giving specific advice.
