What Causes Stomach Ache And Chills While On Medication For Anxiety?

I am on six medications for depression and anxiety and lately experiencing stomach aches, nausea, chills/sweats, dry mouth, lack of appetite when I decrease the dose. (0n the dose I still lack appetite and have night sweats). Are these side effects that will go away once I get off of all of them except Lexapro and lithium or is something else going on? (the others are topiramate, gabapentin, hydroxyzine, propranopal). How do I get help without subscribing?

Hi,

The presentation of narrated symptoms suggest that there are side effects of the current drugs giving stomach pain via gastritis and chills via altered autonomic nervous response.

You need dose re-adjustment with your doctor for the same to get best results out of it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
