I'm really worried because I've been dealing with depression symptoms for three months now and I've noticed that when I dont take my medication, I end up with a headache. I was on nexito forte and lesuride for the past month but my doctor switched my lesuride dose to sulpitac 50. To be honest, I really dont want to rely on medication. Can you tell me how long I'll need to keep taking these meds?

Could I go ahead and stop taking Ciplar LA 40 since I've been on it for a year and my symptoms are getting better? My psychiatrist thinks I should stop, but I'm worried about whether that could cause any problems. What do you suggest?

It is important to follow your psychiatrist's advice when it comes to stopping medication. Ciplar LA 40 is a brand name for propranolol, which is commonly used to treat various conditions including high blood pressure, angina, and tremors. If your psychiatrist has recommended stopping Ciplar LA 40 after a year of use and your symptoms have improved, it may be safe to discontinue the medication. It is important to gradually reduce the dosage under the guidance of your psychiatrist to avoid any potential withdrawal effects. Follow your psychiatrist's instructions closely to ensure a safe and smooth transition.
