Hi my father is taking ((Lithosun SR 400mg (1 Night))) , ((Chlorpromazine 200mg (1Night))) since last 25 years now. In middle he changed the medicines but that didn t suit him and thus he shifted back to this medicine. Now after change of medicines i think these medicines are taking time to settle again. He was having a bit of restlessness and anxiety so he was suggested by doctor to take ((Sizodon plus 1 tablet)) in the morning. Also he is having side effects now like Trembling of Hands for which he visited a Neurologist also and he told to take Betacap TR 40 and Epitril 0.5mg , which are again some heavy medicines. He has not started taking it yet as he has to discuss this with his psychiatrist. Could you tell wat are the side effects of all these and whether the prescription is right. Age : 60 Other Medicines taken for : Diabetes and Thyroid
Hi, I have noted your fathers symptoms, and he is suffering from side effects of antipsychotic medications. These side effects are called as extrapyramidal side effects. Pakistan (Trihexyphenidyl) can be given to reduce the tremors. Also, meet the psychiatrist to change or modify the dose of antipsychotic medications.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
