Hello
Thanks for your query.

I will try my best to provide you with best possible professional recommendations to your questions.

I would like to know the reason for which you are on this drug so at least i can try to short list some drugs and who has given given you these prescription.

I think they might have given you prescription, which includes the brand name of the drug, how frequently you need to consume and duration of consumption or any other information will be good. If it is strip on the back side the contents will be mentioned.

I advice you whenever you are taking some medication, you should ask the doctor for what the drug been prescribed.

If you have taken the drug for some minor illness like cold i advice you to stop it. If after stopping your symptoms decreases it was due to the medicines prescribed.

If the drug is not prescribed by the physician i advice you to stop it immediately and consult the physician along with drug for examination.

Yet again, I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.

Hope i have cleared your queries. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer

I would not get into much details, I am under some psychoterpaic treatment without my own willingnes to participate in it. I have never seen this drug just feel when I get it my body totally changes. Iam all tired but no way can fall asleep, than when I finally can, I sleep half a day. I am at my nerves, I sweat a bit, and feel the numbness. I do not know what this drog is, have never seen it, they put it in my meals ot water, that is the reason for asking it here, as I would like to know what I am given.

Thanks

Hello
Good to hear from you.

If you are participating in any clinical trial and facing this problem you should inform this to the concerned person. They will do what ever is necessary.

There are thousands of drug which can cause similar side effects and is impossible for anyone to correctly pinpoint which drug it is.

I think it will be great if you discuss this with your close ones and try to resolve this problem.

For your numbness and tiredness i advice you to go for some investigation to rule out anemia, as this may be responsible for your symptoms. In case of anemia cause should be found and treated.

Hope i have cleared your queries. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer.
Wish you good health.
