I am taking Zyven plus 50 mg for five months as prescribed by my physician, sir.After stopping this medication for two days, I'm experiencing some issues, such as headaches and drowsiness. What can I do?

Dr Y Thulasi · Accepted Answer

These symptoms are likely due to sudden stopping of Zyven Plus 50, which can cause withdrawal effects like headache, dizziness, and drowsiness. It?s best not to stop this medicine abruptly?restart it and consult your doctor, who can guide you on a gradual dose reduction (tapering) to prevent such symptoms.

I have been taking Zyven Od and Petril for the past three years. How can I stop taking these medications?

Dr Y Thulasi · Accepted Answer

If you?ve been taking Zyven OD and Petril for several years, do not stop them suddenly, as this can cause withdrawal symptoms and worsening anxiety or depression. Please consult your doctor, who will slowly adjust the dose safely and monitor your symptoms during the process.

I'm in Dubai with my wife. I can't ejaculate during sex for a very long period, yet we are preparing to have a child. I also have an embarrassing tendency to lose my erection because I don't ejaculate for a long period. Please let me know what to do. Our current issues are being exacerbated by my wife's PCOD and difficulty getting pregnant.

Your symptoms are very likely due to the medications, especially Prodep 20 and Zyven OD 50, which commonly cause low sexual desire and delayed ejaculation, while Petril 0.25 and Xet 0.25 can also affect performance. Do not stop them suddenly, but consult your psychiatrist to improve sexual function while keeping your mental health stable. Since you?re planning a pregnancy and your wife has Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, it?s best for both of you to seek coordinated care with a psychiatrist and fertility specialist to manage both issues effectively.

Dr Sir, after two years, I'm experiencing depression again, and I'm not sure what caused it. Please advise what I should do in this circumstance. Is Zyven appropriate in this case, as the psychiatrist previously suggested?
