Hello,
I am from Bangladesh, currently living in Japan. The problem is of my Mother.
He is suppering from Depression and Sleeping problem. Her age is 53 and she have 3 son and 2 sister. We went to the doctor for the solution. The doctor gave us the following medicine.

LUDIOMIL 25
LOZICUM
CLONAPIN 2mg
ORVIT- GOLD
ADV
WYETH ATIVAN
RIVOTRIL
COSEC
ANXOPAN
SERTAL
BAX

She is taking these medicine about 6 months.
If she take the medicine, then its ok. But one day she stopped the medicine, and it was extreme situation. She feel heavy weight in her head and feel very very bad.
I don't know what kind of these medicine are. Is these medicine are dangerous ?
Please help me, we are passing some critical moments.

get a second opinion from another doctor. Don't stop the medication without a doctor knowing.

please do not stop taking the medication abruptly. it can have bad side effects.

Have her doctor do a full thyroid panel that includes TSH, T3, and T4 and also make sure you check for thyroid antibodies.

She could have a thyroid problem that is causing the depression and sleep problem.

I will pray for you and your family.

That is definitley too much medicine.  Of course she should not stop taking it.  Just the 2 mg Klonopin alone is very strong.  I'm not sure about some of the meds.  and what they are for.  Good luck.  Keep us posted.
