I've been taking Nexito LS for the last three months as per my doctor's prescription. Recently however, I have stopped taking Nexito LS. Is it safe to stop taking it so abruptly? Please advise whether taking Nexito LS long-term is safe for my health? ## Hi, JIshu! How are you doing? Nexito LS contains the active ingredients Escitalopram and Clonazepam, so it combines an antidepressant with a benzodiazepine to treat depression, anxiety and nervous disorders. It has the potential to be habit forming, especially if you take it for a long period of time. It may also cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Additionally, if you've been taking it for a long period of time, a sudden withdrawal creates the risk of seizures.

Since long my wife aged 54 years is suffering from depression. Three weeks ago her doctor prescribed Bupron XL 150, 1 tab. in morning and Nexito LS, 1 tab at night. But since then she is unable to sleep properly at night and the depression also worsened. When contacted the doctor told her to take double the dose prescribed early. The situation worsened. Now she is totally drowsy and at night also she is feeling that she is awake. ## It really sounds like these just aren't the right medications for her to take. The fact that she is experiencing the opposite of some of the intended effects is what makes me suspect that. Has she contacted her doctor again? I think there's a good chance that she needs to try alternative medications.

My husband cought attack of anxiety in 2009. That time dr prescribed Nexito LS since he is taking every night half tab. But now he want stop I can't he feels uneasyness pls suggest ## Hello, Anita! How is your husband doing? If he has been taking it for years, then it would be normal to have withdrawal effects, if he tries to stop suddenly. A slow tapering is usually best, to prevent him from feeling the withdrawal symptoms. Has he consulted his doctor? They should be able to help him set up a good and safe tapering schedule. Usually, the modern method is to have the person start skipping days, like taking it every other day for a week, then skipping every 2 days and so on.
