I have been taking Nexito Plus tablets for three months and feel better, but I experience faintness when standing or walking. When and how should I safely stop taking this medication?
The medication you are taking contains escitalopram and clonazepam. The faintness you experience when standing is a common side effect caused by a temporary drop in blood pressure upon rising. It is great that you are feeling better, but you must not stop this medication abruptly. Sudden discontinuation can cause uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms like dizziness and anxiety. To safely stop, please consult your doctor, who will create a gradual tapering schedule to slowly reduce your dose over several weeks. For now, try standing up slowly and staying hydrated to help reduce the faintness.
