Urban Side Effects

On the 07/03/2015, my mother of 81 years old has been prescribed Urbanol, simultaneously whilst she's taking Cilift. Over this week end she started with symptoms of feeling extremely tired, energy less and totally drained; almost like she either suffered a stroke or TIA. She has also, due to her legs suddenly becoming weak and lame, fallen twice. She says it feels like her legs become lame and her legs just can't support her body. She too experienced this throughout her entire body. She has been on Cilift for approx 5 years, however her GP prescribed Urbanol because she felt anxious and panicky. Today her GP said to stop with the Urbanol. Could Urbanol cause these side effects? ## Hello, Louis! How is your mom doing? Yes, it has been known to cause such side effects, as reported...

I have been taking Cilift and Purata for some time now and it worked till recently when I started feeling down and depressed again. My Dr changed Cilift for Urbanol and I still take Purata, is this right. Whilst going thru the change, I experienced electric like shocks when I moved my eyes, this is now gone, but now I regularly get an overwhelming feeling of no energy, tiredness and feel totally drained. Could this be a side effect from the Urbanol ? I am under the impression that Urbanol is an anti-depressant and Purata is an anxiety pill ? Have I got it all wrong ? ## Hi. I have been using urbanol as prescribed by the docter for anxiety. Problem is it's done, and I have not been using it for about two weeks.

I use urbanol and get gout. Is it the urbanol? ## That is not typical, the NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, and mood changes. However, there is no way to say how any medication may affect any given person that takes it. Are you on any other medications?

Hi, I were taking urbanol 10mg every morning for 5 years and stopped taking them 11 days ago with out consulting my Doctor, I feel great, but what side effects could it have? Can it cause high blood preasure? ## Hello, Paul! How are you? When you stop such a medication abruptly, the FDA warns that there is a risk of seizures, as well as rebound depression, rebound anxiety and nausea. What are your blood pressure levels? This medication can actually cause some lowering of your blood pressure, so it could be a rebound effect, or you may have naturally developed high blood pressure and the medication was masking it.

My daughter 19 years old took an overdose of Urbanol last night. This morning she is feeling dizzy and her body is weak. What can i do to get it out of her system? We do not have medical aid or funds to take her to the hospital or a dr. ## Hello, Paula! How is your daughter? Did she experience any other adverse effects? With overdose, there is a risk of seizures, as reported by the FDA, so anyone that takes too much needs to seek emergency medical attention immediately. There is also a risk of respiratory arrest. This medication is actually considered to be very habit forming. How long has she been taking it and how much did she take that night? ## I took 100mgs of Urbanol in one day.

Hi. I have taken Venlor& Urbanol throughout my pregnancy. Inam still taking it. How does it affect my baby while I am breastfeeding? ## Hello, Chantelle! How are you?

I have depression and severe anxiety attacks that happens in the mornings. Dr prescribed Lexamil 5mg for the first 10 days and thereafter 10mg together with Urbanol 10mg to be taken together in the mornings.

Is it safe to take an Urbanol in the morning and Zopax at night? I have a very stressful job. ## These are both benzodiazepines, which are used to treat anxiety, and panic disorders.
