Why is the medication Placida making me feel so sleepy and dizzy, is this a normal side effect or a problem with my body, and will it go away after a week?

Asked by Male, 30 · 13 days ago

Feeling sleepy and dizzy is a very common and normal reaction when starting Placida (which contains flupentixol and melitracen). Your body is simply adjusting to the medication, and this is not a sign of a problem with your body. For most people, these mild side effects begin to fade after a week or two as your system adapts. To help manage this safely, avoid sudden movements when standing up. Please give your body a little more time to adjust, but do reach out to your prescribing doctor if these symptoms persist or feel unmanageable.
