you are taking rexipra 5mg (escitalopram) which is quite safe and effective antidepressant and you can easily take it without experiencing side effects...... however if you are not comfortable, then there are many other antidepressants. Alternatively, if you don't want to continue drugs, consult your psychiatrist for Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) or other psychotherapies which can definitely help you.....
Regarding betacap-40, you can taper it down slowly after consultation with your doctor......
Good Luck
Thanks...
