I'm taking alzolam 0.25 mg every day to help with my condition, and I already have high cholesterol. I'm really worried if this medication might affect my cholesterol levels. Can you advise me on this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Alzolam 0.25mg (Alprazolam) is unlikely to directly increase cholesterol levels, but as a benzodiazepine, it may have indirect effects on lipid profiles; however, if you have pre-existing cholesterol concerns so avoid it for long term usage

I'm really worried because I've been using Nexito Plus for about two months for my anxiety disorder, but I stopped taking it suddenly a week ago. Now I'm facing some issues like my anxiety's spiked up, there's this hissing sound in my ears, I'm feeling pain in my chest, and there's this weird pulpitating sensation. I'm also having pain under my ribs near my liver, but my ultrasound came back clear. Are these withdrawal symptoms from stopping Nexito Plus, and do you think it's related to me quitting drinking and smoking? I'm not on any medication right now and could really use some advice.
Yes, the symptoms you're experiencing, such as increased anxiety, hissing sound in ears, heart pain, and palpitations, are likely withdrawal symptoms from abruptly stopping Nexito Plus (Escitalopram and Clonazepam); regarding the pain beneath your ribs, possible causes include anxiety-related muscle tension, costochondritis, or referred pain from acid reflux or stomach issues, and it's essential to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and guidance.
