I am Indian working in Dubai as a Software Developer since 2000. I was having sleeping issue because I have to wake up early morning around 5 AM to go to office, office timing starts at 7 AM. I was suffering from anxiety & depression problems and doing some wrong activates, thinking unwanted issues, panic and fear for small and tiny issues. I have consulted Psychiatrist in March 2015, he asked me to make completed blood test including thyroid, all blood test results are positive except cholesterol level, he had prescribed me Rivotril 0.5 mg (Clonazpam) and Faverin 50mg Half (fluvoxamine maleate 50mg), and I am taking these medicine since then. Wrong activates, thinking unwanted issues, panic and fear for small issues are reduced around 75%. I would like to know about these medicine: 1) These medicine have side effects, if there are side effects, what are they? 2) Shell I need to take these medicine lifelong? 3) Are these medicine affect brain, nerves eyes, kidneys? 4) Past three months, I am having pain in my back side of right side head and nerves in my neck, this may be due to these medicine. I am worried about these medicine, please advise me sir?
Hi all meds have side effects even aspirin but they wouldn’t be passed for use if they were dangerous or had bad common side effects. Google side effects of these meds but bear in mind that most are mild and you would be very unlucky to get any severe ones. If you are the best thing to do is to see your doctor.
There are no medics on here only fellow sufferers so no one can diagnose you. Even if there were professionals on here you still couldn’t be diagnosed over the net. You need to check with your own doctor. x
